Bourne Ultimatum is a good action movie, but you may want to have some Dramamine before seeing this one; it's one of those movies shot with a trembling camera.
In this installment, Matt Damon is being hunted down by the C.I.A., his former employer. He lost his memory, his only love (Franka Potente), and now just wants to find out who he is, and, of course, some revenge on the side. Matt is in action from beginning to end, the movie really delivers on non-stop blow-ups and chase scenes; but there's more than that, Matt's nice, somber, performance is worth the ticket price.
Nothing gay in the movie, though.
We saw this last night,and it was very good. Clever writing.Some really cute guys in the Morroco
scene.
I'm just happy it wasn't anti-Gay as so many films are!

It's such a shame. The first BOURNE was a cinematic widescreen delight, lushly filmed and beautiful. The second BOURNE was a quick-cut shaky-camera-for-no-reason nausea-inducing experience. I won't be seeing the third.

I'm right there with you, Greg. I think that the next installments will let us know more about that (Matt's relationship with Julia). By the way, I like her a lot -- I think she is very talented.

We enjoyed it, as well, though I was wondering about Julia Stiles' character. I had the distinct impression that she knew him prior to becoming Bourne. The chases through Tangiers and New York were amazing.

The Dramamine comment was exactly what I said leaving the Bourne Supremacy...sounds like this flick is just as fun.
Thanks for the review.
