Bourne Ultimatum... - Page 3

I've heard the 2 books after the original trilogy is rubbish and best avoided.

Watched the film last night,...and really enjoyed it.
TBH I thought film 2 was slightly better !

I'm a big Ludlum fan though.

One thing I liked about the films is they captured the feel so well - the assassin is always on the move, always a step ahead, and always tracking something.

Matt Damon truly is Jason Bourne, this is his role.

J'suis tout a fait d'accords.

I liked that

Was impressed by the crossovers and was amused when Nikki started looking like Marie

QFT. I cannot imagine any other actor playing Bourne. He really has made this role his own.

Well I've seen Ultimatum twice and loved it both times. I'd love to see Bourne come back again, I think the script of Ultimatum allows for this.

Of course Damon has to be careful not to get typecast too much otherwise he could hinder his career. I don't think he will; I think he's good enough to get very good parts.

Haven't read the books but finally got round to seeing the movie - lived up to all I expected it to be

I have the first 2 on DVD but I will definately be picking this one up as well!

Nowadays you do not have to wait long before films are out on DVD !
Just expext to pay in the first few months £15 + for it.
Then we will have are limited editions, extended / directors cut and then the Box set !

Don't worry, now I've seen it I'll wait for it to be cheap somewhere before buying it!

Saw it this morning. Just superb. It's a kind of Bond with all the campness extracted, and all the realism reinjected. OK so he survives far more knocks unscathed than he should but for the most part it's just completely believable, which Bond isn't. Makes me wish they were bringing out more, even though it was ended perfectly with the important questions answered and the minor ones left for you to ponder.

Also, that Moby track will forever make me wish I was an undercover agent. Really glad they kept it for all three movies.
