The Bourne Ultimatum Movie Review

Starring: Matt Damon
Director: Paul Greengrass

----Spoilers included-------

If you’re thinking of going to see this film then first watch parts 1 & 2 before. Then only you can understand this movie better. I loved the first two Bourne movies and thought they got better as the stories carried on. In this, the third film of the Bourne Trilogy, you will find Jason brought out of hiding by Guardian reporter, Simon Ross, played by Paddy Considine, who is trying to unveil the CIA based 'Operation Blackbriar'; the program which effectively trained Bourne to become the proficient killing machine. Seeing the reporter as his last chance of finding out his true identity, Jason sets out in pursuit, only to find himself embroiled in a constant battle with 'Blackbriar” gang. From London, to Morocco, to New York; the Cat and mouse game of assassinations, lies and deceit provides a thrilling and tense battle. This movie got ton’s of action (right from the begin to end but it lacks realism like part 1 & 2) A case of Hollywood saying Americans rule the world and can do what we like anywhere on this planet? While CIA looking for him, Bourne happily moves around the world, enter’s into CIA building etc. Also title was not apt compared to first two movies. They carried over book name to film. Though Bourne Ultimatum script got some issues, it has its positive points too. The music was major plus point to keep suspense and interest. (Annoying at few scenes) The long scene in London Waterloo station where Bourne tries to make a contact with a reporter is a masterful work. Matt Damon was very energetic in his role & he was perfect fit for the role& did great job. Paul Greengrass's direction was solid like part two and his use of fast cuts and an unsteady camera is major plus for this kind of fast action packed thriller. All three movies make a very exiting trilogy & its ending is wide open. We can expect more movies.
