Salt

Angelina Jolie, as Evelyn Salt, is every man and every woman's secret dream (come on admit it!), a super-sexy-svelte-siren who is also James Bond.

I dare you to not be engrossed in this picture, not because of the story, what was the plot again... but rather because of Jolie's exquisite bone structure, her impossible body after three of her (own) children, her prefect smile, ample assets, and her ability to take out anyone in her way.

Androgynous? Yes, totally and absolutely. With a lethal combination of feminine charms and action-hero strength, Jolie commands the screen. Although she has emotions she is not ruled by them,  and although she kills, we are convinced she's noble.  A disturbing confession here, though generally I avoid movies with violence I found myself thinking  a few times how sexy Jolie's made all her fight scenes and kills looked. Of course it was totally impossible that she could really take out a boat of men single handed, I don't know if it was some kind of ingrained feminist revenge (but I am not a feminist) but I felt smug about that.

The tables were turned, Jolie shows us that strong women can still be sexy and very desirable.
