This is the most satisfying thriller and mind-blowing action. This movie gets under way with a burst of nervous energy and extreme urgency and never lets up. The cool thing about this movie is that the real revenge is not against bad guys in the CIA, but against the high-tech world that maddens mere mortals. Terrific stunts and chases through crowded streets, buildings and rooftops.
I gave this movie a 5 star rating because I really liked it.Unfortunately,I was really ticked off because I expected thereto be SOME relation to the book.Other than the title,this moviehas nothing to do with the book whatsoever.I hope that they will make a movie of the book titled The BourneUltimatum some day, because it has a really good story.
This was a let down from the first two in the series. It looks like they had to get something out and did not think it through properly.
The very end I mean, because it sums up what you've just experienced while watching the film for the last two hours.I do wish the beginning with the story development was better executed though, because jumping right in and having a guy constantly running around with a gun in his hand was just confusing to me. Smack yourself if you start daydreaming :)The ending was great.
The main problem with the Bourne Ultimatum is that there was almost no build-up in the beginning of the movie, and that meant no reason to really care about the characters, especially Matt Damon's character. but it does NOT excuse it from being pretty darn bland and uninspiring during the first half.
It ended up a better movie after a while, though it's probably the kind of storyline you have to pay VERY close attention to understand, so you can't afford to daydream while some very important clues in the development of the storyline are taking place. For the first half of the movie, we were basically going into the storyline head-first, and left with a lot of confusion as to what was going on, and why we were supposed to care about this guy that kept running away, getting involved in conflicts, and constantly baffling the FBI as to his whereabouts.The film started winning me over once the action picked up, and especially when a particularly lengthy fight scene took place around halfway through.
It was about 10 minutes before this scene took place when I finally said "Hey, maybe this movie has a shot to be a good one". In fact, it was the best part.
Other than that, pretty good action movie.
saw the movie myself but bought it for one of my daughter's they watch it often and love it
