Salt – way too much salt
Watching the movie ‘Salt’ is like eating something that has way too much salt in it; I couldn’t even tell what was in my mouth, nothing fresh and nothing inspiring and leaves a plain nasty after taste.
Salt tells a tale that, hey spoiler here so look away, a female CIA agent is accused of being a Russian spy. And then she is on the run, trying to save her husband who was kidnapped, and after that, setting out for a personal revenge journey. See, I am decent, I do not give all the story, still keep the thrill, not that there is any thrill in the movie that worth catching up, but anyway.
Sorcerer's Apprentice(2010)Merlin gets ass handed to him. Merlin talks about someone who will one day be as powerful as he. Merlin dies. Merlin's apprentice (one of) is charged with finding this person, so that he/she can destroy the ultimate evil. Enter nerd.
We've heard this "chosen one"/"the ONE" story hundreds of times before. There is only one person that can accomplish said task, he is usually some half wit or nerd that rises to the occasion and ends up getting the hot girl that would not have anything to do with one like him in the real world. Such is a fantasy tale and such is the story for "Sorcerer's Apprentice". How many "the ones" are there out there? If every movie has "the one" doesn't that defeat the whole point of "the one"?
