Who is Salt? Oscar winning actress, Angelina Jolie, plays talented CIA agent Evelyn Salt in Phillip Noyce’s action packed thriller Salt. Highly respected amongst her peers, praised by her superior Ted Winter (Liev Schreiber) and happily married, Evelyn is in her element. Until one day, a Russian spy infiltrates the CIA building and notifies them that one of their agents will assassinate the President of Russia on his forthcoming visit to the United States. He names the secret agent as: “Evelyn Salt”. Now on the run and simply referred to as ‘Salt’, the giant question mark over Salt’s true identity continually leaves the audience second guessing.

| Buried - Dig Deep |
|
An hour and a half in a box with Ryan Reynolds may not sound like a particularly terrifying ordeal, but Buried - the low-budget, indie film from little-known Spanish director Rodrigo Cortes - is a hard-hitting, claustrophobic and ultimately heart-rending movie about the casualties of war. |
| Eat Pray Love - Alienate Confuse Annoy |
|
Director Ryan Murphy has experienced a commendable degree of success. From his hit show Nip/Tuck to the hugely popular TV show (love it or hate it) Glee, he has brought out the best in his actors whether high profile or complete unknowns. Sadly, despite enjoying an eye catching cast: Julia Roberts, Billy Crudup, James Franco and Javier Bardem, his most recent film Eat Pray Love is unforgivably disappointing. You know something is wrong when two hours suddenly feels like four. |
| The Social Network Review |
|
With facebook permeating every aspect of waking existence, it’s hard to imagine how a film about its invention could possibly hold our attention for 1 hour and 55 minutes (without us updating our status). However while the concept of the plot seems pretty dry, David Fincher’s (Fight Club, se7en) take on what at first seems an essentially trivial story becomes, in true Fincher style, a dark tale of one man’s desire for social acceptance. |
| This is England 86 |
|
This is England ’86 is a mini-series created by the same writer and director of the 2006 film, This is England. It’s a story that follows on from the film, which was about a group of apolitical skinheads who were divided by a few nationalist individuals within the group. This is England ’86 is set a full three years after the events of the film, and it deals with all of the characters and how their lives have changed. |
