The Bourne Ultimatum
 
Just saw this today, And without giving anything away, It is not the best of the series, IMO, Identity is the best, But is far and away the best Action flick this year, And a top 5 07 release in general. Bourne continues on his quest for answers, And revenge rears it's head also. He is still very pissed off. It's a good "Date" flick, Women love Damon, Not sure why, BTW, The fight scenes in this one are way over the top, Up there with vintage Segal. See this one.:yes:

My wife and I saw this last night on the big screen. It starts out fast paced and rarely lets up. Recommended.

Yes - saw it yesterday - very good for a sequal. Probably best on a big screen and not a typical TV.

Saw it, liked it. Constant action and overpowering soundtrack made me feel old. The world went and got itself in a big damn hurry.

Matt Damon has this puppy-dog look about him but he also has an intensity. So he's non-threatening, willing to please, and can focus his attention on whatever task at hand... nuff said?

I read the trilogy 25+ years ago the movie isn't quite the same as the book but does it justice. Great non-stop action movie. The fight and chase scenes are one of the best.

Yeah, I got a bit annoyed by this. The first one starts off the same as the book but then diverges, the second uses a couple of elements of the second book and the third isn't released in Aus until next week. But then (after seeing the second) I realised that Ludlum probably would have liked them anyway, they have the same fast pace as his books used to have and to !!!! with the story...

Can't wait (even if it's not so good).

Ultimatum was the best out of the three.

Same with Die Hard.

I loved Transformers!

My girlfriend and I went to see it a couple of weeks ago and thought it was a very solid movie. I feel like you didn't have to think as much with this one, which I disliked. They spelled everything out in this one, whereas in the other two I felt like you had to piece some things together and do some thinking while watching the movie. Overall thumbs up. Agree that its probably one of the best 5 movies of the year.

Fast paced action movie. Edge of the seat action wise. This Bourne does'nt require the cerebral input that the first two did, which dissapointed me. Great entertainment if you like action movies. I would recommend it !!

I agree, This was all about finally getting revenge, Which he wanted at all cost.

Wife & I saw it last weekend. An ideal summer film.

I was a bit dissapointed...I dont like it when they the intelligence agency start their lines with "listen people"..that is so kisch, cliche, etc etc....besides the fight scenes, I didnt think it had much going for it.
