The Bourne Ultimatum

Pros: Damon as Bourne. Entertaining action movie.
Cons: Horrid shaky camera work.

In 2002, Th e Bourne Identity came out of nowhere to become a surprise hit and made Matt Damon an unlikely action star. I saw the movie in the theater and own the DVD. I went to see the second movie to feature Jason ...

Pros: Jason Bourne is Back!
Cons: Not as original or fresh as the first.

My son Nick and I both enjoy high octane thrillers, and even screen writer Judd Apatow recognizes that Jason Bourne could kick some serious butt. (for those of you who aren't film geeks, a clip from The Bourne Identity appeared in The 40 Year ...

Pros: Smartly written and acted, intelligent movie.
Cons: Not much at all...

Bourne is back, and this time he coming home to New York City—eventually. As I stated in my review of The Bourne Supremacy, some action movies can be judged solely on their 'money scenes': those fistfights, car chases, gun battles, and ...

Pros: A great story which grows in suspense very well.
Cons: Possibly a little too fast or too violent for some viewers.

The Bourne Ultimatum is probably the best action film of 2007 (so far), and if great entertainment is what you're after, this one is the summer choice to make. Seeing this film will make you glad you decided to go to the movies. Matt Damon as ...

Pros: Action that keeps you on the edge of your seat
Cons: Lose the shaky camera work already

After I watched the first film in the Bourne franchise, I wrote the series off. I only just saw the second one last week. And I got talked into seeing this one because my roommates both wanted to see it. I figured it would make a good guys night, so I ...

Pros: awesome action, great closure
Cons: none

The Bourne Ultimatum is easily the most action-packed in the Bourne Identity trilogy, and a perfect ending to the story. It's not my favorite (that honor goes to Bourne Identity) but it's a major upgrade to the Bourne Supremacy - and for that I am glad. ...

Pros: Damon, Allen, Strathairn, Considine, Finney, Greengrass's direction, story
Cons: Some may be bothered by Greengrass's abundant hand-held shots

As long as Jason Bourne lives, those in charge at the CIA will stop at nothing to see him dead. In The Bourne Ultimatum, Bourne (Matt Damon), a trained assassin of the now-defunct Treadstone project, continues to live a life of secrecy, three ...

Pros: Great acting especially by Damon and Allen; spectacular car chase
Cons: Julia Stiles needs more to do; shaky camera work

Jason Bourne has seen better days. Of course, it would help if he could remember those days. However, circumstances are telling him that he needs to recover his lost memories if he is ever wants to have a moment’s peace, and in doing so may be more ...

Pros: Great action, fine acting, tremendous cinematography
Cons: None

Wow! That was my reaction to many of the scenes and the entire film after I watched the third in the Bourne trilogy, "The Bourne Ultimatum." Unlike many trilogies (bug not all) which appear to be mere continuations of the previous films, this is one ...

Pros: Frenetic pace, well-directed, actors carry you over the implausibility
Cons: Julia Stiles (and her character too)

I would love a travel itinerary like Jason Bourne’s. London, Paris, Moscow, Madrid, Tangier, New York, the sights would be amazing! I could do without the assassins after me, though. That would kind of suck. But Bourne’s good enough to handle it all ...

Pros: CINEMATOGRAPHY AND STUNT WORK
Cons: Too many characters asking Bourne: You really don't remember? Duh.

The Following is a True Story: Craftswoman, also known as Marcy decided to use the movie pass she won at work by guessing some silly movie trivia questions. After searching online to see what movies were playing, she decided to see The Bourne ...

Pros: Great cinematography, directing, acting, and a spell binding plot.
Cons: Once again I could have seen more of the lovely Julia Stiles!

The Bourne Ultimatum is absolutely breath taking. I'm sure that other reviewers have already howled about the heart pounding action, incredibly inventive cinematography and fantastically taut story line. I will go into all of these aspects of this ...

Pros: Fans of Matt Damon will still like it.
Cons: Not enough of what made the first two Bourne movies a hit.

First, before the hordes of Bourne movie fans appear at my gate with torches and pitchforks screaming "kill the monster", I know the title is a bit harsh. I'll say it right up front... I am a big Matt Damon fan, and I loved the earlier movies. But as ...

Pros: Great acting/script, amazing action sequences, interesting story
Cons: Shaky, nauseating, sickening camera!

Being an avid fan of The Bourne Identity and The Bourne Supremacy, I was thoroughly excited upon viewing The Bourne Ultimatum. Although I preferred the first film in the series, The Bourne Ultimatum is still an action packed thriller ...

Pros: Matt Damon's acting is, as always, top notch, and direction is great
Cons: Serious script problems, poor characterization

There's an old saying "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." The problem with that phrase, however, is that even the best formula eventually gets old. Perhaps that's just the problem with The Bourne Ultimatum . Standing on its own, the movie is ...
