Alright, has anyone seen this? There is an obscene plot hole at the end.

Spoiler: show
They were saying that no one would believe that Liev Schrieber killed all those people in the bunker, but the President survived. As soon as he woke up, he'd say "That fucking Liev guy is a Russion spy. Kill him!" I don't know if they'd set Salt free, but she would definitely be cleared of all those murders.

it was pretty decent. yes there is a plot hole, but I dont know if it really matters. I liked this more than any of the jason bourne movies for sure.

I didn't necessarily have a huge desire to see this as it was, but I feel like I might've caught some chatter somewhere around online about the twist of the movie, so I think I know what the deal is...

Spoiler: show
The Salt as she is at the beginning of the film is actually telling the truth when she says she's not a spy, the idea is that she doesn't remember anything -- she WAS indeed formerly a Russian spy, selling to the US, but something happened along the way and they removed all of Salt assassin's movies so that now she was just plain Agent Salt.

So, basically doing a roughshod version of Bourne Identitiy except with a gal.

about it?

I guess. this was a lot more interesting than the bourne movies. matt damon was stiff as a fucking cardboard box in those movies. Almost kevin costner boring.
