SALT

Okay. Granted, the way I was watching it made it really hard to hear what was being said, so it was hard to make sense of it from the getgo. But still, it was kinda ridiculous. It was, in essence, an excuse to make Angelina Jolie hardcore eye candy - being tortured, blowing stuff up, taking her panties off to get away, and just generally be a total femme fatale. Which is cool, except that they made the plot really annoyingly difficult to get with plot twists that were like okay...can it be one or the other, please? The difficulty for that may have been, though, as I said, an effect of not being able to hear the TV. And by the way, the physics were ridiculous. Jumping off a subway train barrelling by a station - those things are going AT LEAST 35 mph, especially how it seemed in the movie - is NOT going to work like that, the way physics works she would have likely slammed into (and squashed through) one of the poles. And all the jumping on trucks...yeah, right.

It was very hard for me to suspend my disbelief. All it was in my eyes was a bunch of kickass fighting and explosions with Angelina Jolie at the fore.
