- Richard9. november 2025This one had all the makings of a franchise: Angelina Jolie as a rogue CIA agent with a Russian backstory, a plot full of double crosses and identity twists and action scenes that felt like Bourne on espresso. I saw it on the big screen back when spy thrillers still had a bit of grit and weren’t just CGI drone fests and it delivered. Fast, slick, and just unhinged enough to be fun. Jolie throws herself into the role like she’s got something to prove leaping off bridges, disguising herself mid chase and taking down entire squads with a look that says, “I don’t need backup, I am the backup.” The plot? Pure Cold War paranoia with a modern twist. Russian sleeper agents, presidential threats and a protagonist who might be the villain or the only one who can stop them. The ending practically begs for a sequel. Salt disappears into the shadows, ready to dismantle a secret network of operatives. It’s the kind of setup that screams “next mission coming soon.” But Hollywood blinked. No sequel. No follow up. Just a lot of “maybe someday” interviews and a growing pile of missed opportunities. It’s a shame. Because Salt had style, momentum and a lead who could carry three more films without breaking a sweat. Instead, it’s a one and done spy thriller that leaves you wanting more, in the best and worst ways.

- Shaydeknight29. september 2025Salt is a generally decent action thriller, built on momentum and spectacle rather than depth. Angelina Jolie throws herself into the role with conviction, leaping, punching, and running through one improbable escape after another. The set pieces are barely credible, but they’re undeniably fun to watch, shot with a slick, kinetic energy that keeps the film moving forward like a runaway train. Where the film falters is in character motivation. Salt herself remains a cipher: we’re told fragments of her past but never offered enough to truly understand what drives her. Even a simple flashback with detail about her childhood could have grounded the story emotionally. Chiwetel Ejiofor, as one of the agents in pursuit, suffers a similar fate, as does Liev Schreiber. They're compelling on screen but the script never gives us the insight we need to know why they make the decisions they make. The result is a cast of characters who are dynamic in motion but frustratingly thin in substance. Technically, the film is well-executed: Phillip Noyce directs with a steady hand, using sharp, urban imagery (cold offices, cramped apartments, and steel-and-glass corridors) to emphasize the sense of paranoia. The camera often frames Jolie against these rigid, anonymous environments, reinforcing the idea of a person defined more by circumstance than identity. Lensing and colour grading lean toward the cool and metallic, which, while not subtle, suits the film’s atmosphere of distrust. Salt doesn’t offer much in terms of metaphor or philosophy, but it does tap into the old spy-thriller theme of masks and shifting allegiances: who you are is less important than who others believe you to be. The film doesn’t dig deeply into that idea but it lingers just enough to add a faint echo of something bigger. Salt works as a glossy action ride: fast, loud, and enjoyable in the moment, even if it leaves you wishing its characters had been drawn with the same intensity as its explosions.
