Things I found stupid in the movie......


WHY was salt shooting at Ted Winters through bullet-proof glass? Clearly, salt was smart enough to know that you cannot shoot bullet-proff glass. Also, her instructor warned her not to trust anyone, and she trust winters just because he is from Russia. Stupid move on her part. She let her guard down, and he tried to frame her as the bad guy(or woman)....

1. She knew it was bulletproof but she was so angry she just wanted to blow his head off

2. Hey, we all make mistakes

Bump.

I didn't understand the whole bunker part.

1) The President would know Ted Winters was a bad guy, which would help her explain afterwards.

2) The cams record her being outside the main complex while the misiles are being prepped, which again helps her even more.

3) Everything is tracked, so should also be logged somewhere that the gates were being overridden so she could open and stop Ted Winters, which she's the only one who could do, which again proves she was trying to stop him all along.

4) Totally lame the people outside could burn through the huge vault door, the speed they did this at, means it would have been smarter of her to let them in when she saw Ted was starting up the misiles, they should have been able to burn through the last door in 10 secs.


Yes it's a film, and I found it very entertaining the all the way till that bunker stuff, where it went of track. Her killing Ted only made her look even more guilty which didn't do her any good, there was no need to kill him.
Seems to me some director thought it would look cool if she killed him that way, and just put it in.

Still, good film till then.

As she is being handed back to the Americans, Salt's hair is immaculate but her face battered. Please explain how a Hollywood hairdresser got into Korea.

Like most women, she gussied-up a bit (female McGuyver style!) when she was informed the object of her affection was coming to get her.

If those were the only stupid things you found in this film, then you must have slept through most of it.

@Randy-Crawford

You're confused.

She was using tactical magic bullets when she was shooting that glass. She was a little more than arms length away (lets say 6 feet, for the sake of argument) Later, the impact is apparent in the glass (there even appear to be holes in the center of each impact point!), but the bullets neither penetrate, ricochet or are left embedded in the glass.

Pay closer attention next time, OK?

Well, she could have waited until she saw him right in front of her and then shoot him....
