However, when Salt learns that her superiors are planning a rogue operation that will trigger a nuclear war, she works feverishly to undo their plans. This makes Evelyn Salt kill-on-sight for American and Soviet forces.

Salt / int_272abb98	comment	Shoot the Shaggy Dog: The first half of the movie. After desperately searching for her husband, she finds him...only to be forced to stand there and watch him die as a test of loyalty. Granted, it's what opens up the second half of the plot, and in a way it nicely averts A Million is a Statistic and Protagonist-Centered Morality (since it could be interpreted that her actions - or inactions - mean she believes that preventing Orlov's plans to start a world war is more important than saving Mike. Even so, it did seem to undermine the first half of the movie.

There are several James Bond shoutouts, including the whole North Korean sequence from Die Another Day and Orlov's switchblade shoe from From Russia with Love. Both are entirely factual, but likely to have been shout outs. The way Salt dyes her hair and employs various disguises is reminiscent of the Mission: Impossible films and Alias. Salt refers to herself as a "patsy" at one point—possibly a reference to Lee Harvey Oswald, mentioned in the beginning of the film, who referred to himself as such in relation to JFK's assassination.

Salt / int_eed678bf	comment	Deep Cover Agent: During the Cold War, the plan was to send dozens of sleeper agents into American society, and for all of them to attack different highly placed American targets on a given day. Salt is one as well.

Salt / int_f4379d92	type	Double Reverse Quadruple Agent
Salt / int_f4379d92	comment	Double Reverse Quadruple Agent: Salt herself. She started as a KGB, later SVR, Sleeper Agent inserted into the United States as a child and joined the CIA, then gets outed by her own SVR handler as part of The Plan and goes on the lam. Problem was, she'd gone native after her German husband pulled out all the stops to get her freed after she was captured in North Korea on a CIA assignment, and after they kidnap and later murder him, she fakes carrying out her part of the sleeper agents' plan, kills her handler, then infiltrates the infiltrators to completely wreck their attempt to start World War III.

Salt / int_f49b7394	comment	Lzherusskie: As usual, Russian characters are played, with the exception of extras, by non-Russian actors. (though at one point it was enforced: Andrei Konchalovsky told Noyce to pick a certain actor for Orlov because "such an evil Russian character could only be played by a Polish actor")
