    Why did I assume the movie was based on this [www.amazon.com] ? #angelinajoliesalttrailer

    I am so seeing this movie.

    Chiwetel Ejifor is in it.

    Philip Noyce who directed Clear And Present Danger (and Rabbit Proof Fence among others) knows how to do action.

    Chiwetel Ejifor is in it.

    I wonder why Tom Cruise dropped out and if they had to rewrite the script once Angelina was cast? #angelinajoliesalttrailer

    @nyc-caribbean-ragazza: Didn't they do a production of Othello with Chiwetel Ejifor as Othello and Ewan McGregor as Eiago? Certainly there could not have been a dry eye in the house at the end of that show (and by eye I mean panties).

    @hortense: You know, I'm not a massive fan of her acting, but I like how she is redefining a traditional 'A' list actress's career trajectory - action flicks and more serious roles a la Clive Owen, Daniel Craig, Leonardo DiCaprio etc. I can't think of another woman who's done that.

    @hortense: I love her, but I wouldn't put her in the same category - she did the Alien franchise, but that was more accident than design. I can't think of any other flicks she did where she was the action hero. . . #angelinajoliesalttrailer

    @snugbug: No. Again, I'm not talking about an actress who has played a kick-ass role or two because she happens to be the muse of one director (Thurman), or by default, because a film unexpectedly became a franchise (Weaver) - both of those actresses have been 'passive' in those deals and neither of them has continued in that genre. I think Angelina is different because she seems to have actively sought out a succession of action-hero roles in films by various different directors, playing different characters. There just isn't another A-list actress that has managed - or wanted - to pull that off. Even though I'm not fan of those films, I kinda like how she's not overly bothered about being 'taken seriously' as an actress. #angelinajoliesalttrailer

    @Diziet_Sma: Damn! You run a tight game around these parts, sister!

    I (begrudgingly) concede the point.

    Truth be told, I enjoy cheeseball action heroine Angie a ton more than heaving-bosom dramatic Angie. Wanted was such an enormously entertaining laugh riot. I also remain a fan of something called Life Or Something Like It that Jolie starred in a while back. It's an imbecilic "uplifting drama" that will have you in stitches. Ditto Alexander.. Come think of it, Jolie is also extremely gifted at unintentional comedy. And yes, I like her all the more for it. #angelinajoliesalttrailer

    @Diziet_Sma: well, Jolie is admittedly better in the "kick-ass" roles which seem more suited to her inherent character; she always appears to struggle with more serious, dramatic roles.

    Her pursuit may be by design of her own with the knowledge that she's an otherwise "sucky" actress. (my opinion)

    I'll watch her jump off things, punch people and shoot guns ANY DAY because she's so good at it. #angelinajoliesalttrailer

    I think this might be the first action movie I pay to see ever. For some reason, I really want to see Angelina Jolie kick ass! Maybe it's all these snap judgements of her on set... or the scarcity of kick-ass female roles in Holywood.

    Any clue as to what the hell this Salt movie is about?

    "A con film with a heart"

    "Jolie replaces Tom Cruise" is all I've found in searches.
