VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Stellead Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

adonis98-743-186503 A scientist blames the head of a large company for an ecological disaster in South America. But when a volcano begins to show signs of erupting, they must unite to avoid a disaster. Michael Shannon's epic downfall continues with 'Salt and Fire' a movie that says nothing and pretty much does nothing either. The acting i can't say that was that good either alongside the story as well of course. Gael Garcia Bernal's role could have been played by pretty much everyone as well. Overall i'd say just skip it and watch anything else that you can possibly find... (0/10)

Arnab Nayak A most ridiculously stupid let down! If I could only re-do my watching it! Why include the characters of Gael García Bernal and the other guy? Why wear the mask for one meeting, only to take it off the next meeting? There is a subtle and emotional meaning to the plot. But the screenplay bungles it up completely by the end. I do not think that the actors are any bit responsible individually-- just bad bad bad direction!

Jeff It's hard to believe that the director of a film so profound and well- done as Rescue Dawn would produce such an utterly unwatchable movie as Salt and Fire. I am only giving this 2 stars for the efforts of Michael Shannon. The start was decent and one was wondering "ok what's going to happen now and what's this all about". Then the shoe drops and keeps falling and falling, never hitting ground. This is perhaps the least watchable piece of would-be film art I've ever seen. It's just painful. Spare yourself the wasted time.

sfinancing ...that is certainly not thrilling. Set against the amazing and beautiful backdrop of the Bolivian salt flats a kidnapped scientist plays board games while forced to camp with children going blind because their adopted father(who bought a consortium and kidnapped a group of scientists) wants said scientist to see the human suffering involved in irrigation or something? Toss in some abstract art. Weird synopsis for sure but I suffered through this heaping pile of so that hopefully I can save someone else from doing the same.I'm sure the person who wrote this considers themselves to an intellectual...they should in no way be allowed access to writing materials again.Acting...well they managed to read the drivel written for dialogue(1 point).Cinematography...while not enough to save this loser, it is hard not to be impressed by the setting of this movie(1 point).Director...made a poor choice considering making this film.Overall...incredibly slow paced with a horrible story line, non existent plot and wooden acting.Free on Netflix and way over priced.
