So who was Salt?


Salt was obviously a sleeper agent. But did she have a profound change of heart and now she is loyal to the U.S.? It was never explained in the movie.

I think she just went total rogue.

I think this aspect is the biggest plot hole in the film.

That's the part that was confusing to me---when did she flip and decide to go rogue? You're right----that part was never really explained. Apparently there was a sequel planned for the film, since it was a big box office hit, and Jolie really killed it in the role. I would have definitely watched a sequel just for her, and maybe that would have explained the plot hole. Here's an article about the planned sequel, and there was even a TV series that was going to be based on Salt too, but both fell through:

Potentially* killed her parents then killed her husband. Shes says at the end "They took everything from me."
