Salt: (2010)
Angelia Jolie is fun to watch but this is a poor man’s Bourne Identity in every way. If you want to see how not to write a script, see this film. For an action movie to work, the plot doesn’t need to make sense. A film can just take a silly premise and go with it. But if a film has a ridiculous plot, like this one does, don’t explain it: establish the basics information quickly and move on to the action. Salt's sin is thinking it has a clever plot when it doesn’t. The result is lots of tedious explication, particularly in the first half hour.
