Salt
A CIA agent is accused of being a Russian spy by a defector.
Image galleryEvelyn Salt is one of the CIA's best agents, a master at her craft and respected by her peers. But then a Russian defector offers information on the upcoming assassination of the Russian president on American soil, naming Salt as the killer, and she's forced to run in hopes of clearing her name and saving her husband from danger. Only Salt's boss tries to keep the system from hunting her down, but even he may change his mind when the president is indeed shot at an official function.
A finely crafted thriller starring Angelina Jolie, who could teach many so-called action «stars» a thing or two. While all the usual chases, fights and twists are present, they're done the smart way, leaving audiences both in suspense and well-entertained - an all-too-rare event these days. Directed by Phillip Noyce, whose eerie Dead Calm (1989) brought both him and Nicole Kidman from Australia to Hollywood.
