Oscar nominated or not, I also didn't like the movie Salt.

Lockout on Blu-ray - Guy Pearce, Maggie Grace
A movie which has some very good sound effects as well as a great video transfer on Blu-ray.
A good contender with popcorn.
12 Angry Men (1957) - IMDb
I recently ordered 12 Angry Men Criterion Collection from amazon.com. Got a chance to watch it yesterday, man what a movie. One of Sidney Lumet best movies.
This is classic example on how acting, direction and screenplay can elevate a movie. The whole movie happens in one room and never a second is boring. Amazing acting and gripping screen play. Touches too many subjects , I hear this movie is the inspiration for lot books , movie and tele serials based on american legal system.
If you haven't watched it, please do so...This one is a prized possession in my blu ray collection...

I am not saying that movie is rubbish but I can't put an exact pointed finger to what I did not like. But somehow it was not absorbing. Granted that action was good. Yet did not catch my pulse. Appeared to be a rehash of many films put together. In the end everything seemed so predictable.Seriously... what's there to not like in the movie? Angelina Jolie even did most of the stunts herself and people still do not like it.
Perhaps the "outrageous" story is deemed impossible? But I've read enough thriller/spy novels which allude to the possibility of such sleeper agents who take on fake/real identities in the West and blend into society but are working as "secret agents".
