June 7, 2009The best of the Bourne trilogy and one of the best action films of the decade, the Bourne Ultimatum is an ultimate in action movie experiences. Matt Damon has transformed the character of Bourne in three films from a troubled assassin without an identity, to a action hero of such... ...( read more )

March 28, 2009Matt Damon . . . has definitely found a niche where he looks good. True, he can act -- he's way better than Affleck -- but anything where acting actually overshadows action would be a stretch even for him. This is all action and it's . . . interesting, but it's not anything wor... ...( read more )

February 27, 2009Jason Bourne is back to finally solve the mystery of his identity. The movie starts out fast and keeps an incredibly quick pace, stays exciting and gripping over the full 100 minutes that pass like nothing. Sometimes the shaky cam gets a little too much, but that doesn't keep you... ...( read more )

Fans of 24 will be amazed to find a hero who makes Jack Bauer seem like a study in sissydom. full review

It's the best action picture in decades, a two hour high-tech chase around the world that surpasses everything that's come before it including Oscar winning classics like 'The French Connection' and '... full review

"The Bourne Ultimatum" might have brought this saga to a classy and gratifying conclusion. It's hard to imagine how any further sequel could improve upon it. full review

I must have breathed during The Bourne Ultimatum because I didn't pass out in my seat -- but I'm sure those were bruises on my throat. Gripping? Yes. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Ultimatum is a tribute to Bourne's determination, his driving skills, his intelligence in out-thinking his masters and especially his good luck. full review

Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail
This is a chase film, pushed to the fragmented limits of abstraction, that rattles and jolts and explodes like an intricately designed drum solo. full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
Here's hoping Damon is Bourne again. full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
His [Greengrass'] masterful direction of The Bourne Ultimatum makes this third installment unequivocally the summer's best 'threequel.' It also is easily the best action thriller of the year. full review

January 22, 2008I am one of Robert Ludlum's devoted fans. Loved all the others!! Cool! Something wonderful to go and see (rELEASE DATE 08/03/07)!! YIPPEE! Loved Brian Cox (killed in the sequal tho!) & Matt Damon in the Bourne Identity & Ultimatum. This sequel is nonstop! Grabs you right up front. This director/editor whomever does this makes DAMON look like the best actor/spy around!! Great!

January 5, 2008This is the best fiml ever!!! The plot was the best so far, the car chase was wicked as was the acting and the best line ever, "If you were in your office right now we'd be having this convorsation face to face." That was a really good plan he made up and just shows how good he is and he can get through anything without being caught.
