Salt

"Salt" is an American action thriller film that was written by Kirt Wimmer and directed by Phillip Noyce. The successful movie was released in July 2010 and reached to $293.5 while being in the box office.
The movie starts out in North Korea where Evelyn Salt (played by Angelina Jolie) is tortured for the assumption of her being an American spy although she refuses to admit the fact. She is surprised of being freed in a prisoner exchange but not until she meets Ted Winter (played by Liev Schreiber) that she understands why.Evelyn Salt and Ted Winter both work for a CIA agency.

A couple of years later , Evelyn and other colleagues interrogate Oleg Vasilyevich Orlov (played by Daniel Olbrychski) after he accesses the CIA agency. He is a Russian defector and informs her about the Russian scheme in which the Russian President will be assassinated. He refers to the day as "Day X" and mentions that the plan is a Russian plot to ruin U.S.A in which English-speaking agents trained from childhood will carry out the scheme. The Russian President will be murdered at the funeral of the American Vice President by agent " KA-12" also known as Evelyn Salt.
Knowing that her colleagues will arrest her , she tries to call and warn her husband but there's no answer so she intelligently outsmarts the agents and leaves the building. She realizes that her husband has been kidnapped she picks up one of her husband's spider and some of her weapons. Salt takes some venom from the spider then leaves for the funeral of the American Vice President in New York . She ingeniously passes through all the security unnoticed and a shot is heard.Peabody (FBI agent ) tries to capture Salt but she escapes. The media mentions that the Russian President is dead. She meets Orlov and he tests her devotion by murdering her husband, Michael, but she reveals no emotion and Orlov is glad. Her next mission is to murder the U.S President with another Russian agent. Angered by her husbands death she kills Orlov and the Russian agents. Evelyn disguises herself and accesses the White House , Winter turns out to be a Russian agent and he launches missiles at Mecca and Tehran so Salt is trying to persuade him to let her in,he watches the news of the Russian President being alive. It turns out that the spider venom is only temporary. She manages her way in and fights over stopping the missiles with Winter , she eventually wins and stops them.
Peabody is cynical about Salt's claims of saving the day. While on the helicopter going to the FBI agency , she tells him about what she did, so when he got a message mentioning that her fingerprints were on the dead body,he believes her so removes the cuffs and she jumps down the river.
