@ The Movies: Salt

Bygbaby.com Mindspill

It’s been many months since I had the energy to do a post on any movie because quite frankly, I’ve seen a ton of bullshit! I would names names but it’s hardly worth it.

I guess all my bullshit movie entertainment ended this week when I ventured out to see “Inception.” I thought it was a good movie with a fanciful story line, good acting & of course out of this earth graphics!

Many of my friends saw it & thought it was like the best thing since cheesy grits but not I.  I mean, I liked it & walked away feeling satisfied but I didn’t get that hell yeah that was awesome feeling. Will I buy the DVD, sure, well maybe I will just Netflix it.

This evening, I took a chance & saw “Salt” of which, I decided not to read any reviews nor did I see any previews.  I just walk in blindly with no preconceived notions.

Unlike “Inception,” “Salt” was not a film with tons of out of this earth graphics & did they really do that moments.  “Salt” in my eyes was the type of action flick that I like that has great chase scenes, gun fights, ass kicking, talented acting, diverse & developed characters & a story line that did not involve taking notes to keep up.

Sure, “Salt” did not have the most original plot but the way that it was scripted out was totally a good look with some fun twists.

I found myself vacillating on wanting the bad guy to win. I love when I have that dilemma.

By the time the movie ended, I still uncertain on what I wanted but what I got was movie satisfaction.  That’s satisfaction without a bunch of 2010 Hollywood bullshit.

For the record, “Salt” is a movie, & I did not get hung up on her Super Bionic Russian bitch powers. I took it for what it was.

My “Salt” movie mix includes: The Jackal (1997), The Bourne Identity (2002), In the Line of Fire (1993), The Manchurian Candidate (2004)
