English trailer for "Salt" (2010)

While I enjoy Jolie more in roles like this than in heavy dramatic turns (exception: "Gia"), this isn't terribly enticing. The premise is cool, but the trailer itself is poorly put together, and some of the stunts look like low budget rip-offs of "The Matrix", "Wanted", or and of the Jason Bourne films (the bit where she bounced off the wall is admirable for being done without any wires, but unimpressive as an overall bit of fight choreography/staging). That said, don't be surprised if this does well at the box office. Who knows, it might prove to be fun, and even smart...
