i hope ther isnt a fouth bourne film. john. i though u said in ur review that the director has actully taken the camera a step back and let us seen the action etc. what film did u see . cause it wasnt bourne ultimatum. that fight in the house with bourne and the guy after nicky was crap. the dircetor mght aswell have just strapped the frigin camera to actors legs and just let then get on with . cause what i seen was just a set of legs and arms movig about a bit. christ i though to myself when i was watchin it. jesus lets c the fuckin thing. basically the bourne ultimatum want no wee near the film i was hoping it would b. theere wa some good bits in in defenitly. the train station bit with the phones . and other bits here and there . but basically film had no danger. no tension.this was another TRANSFORMERS for me . bit of a waste of time.

Great movie, but so many unexplained over the top situaions like him hotwiring a brand new Audi, which everyone knows is completely impossible…
infact showing a guy hotwiring a modern car is just plain tacky…
he should have just been showin crack jacking a car.

This movie sold me john it was the best movie of the summer the best of the 3. I was like you i liked identity I though it was very entertaing spy thriller and what i first watch it i though wow i didn’t know matt damon coud do that kind of stuff. than when supremacy came i though i was ok but there was something i just didn’t like about it than Collateral come out week lather and i though i wish supremacy was like this. now that Ultimatum is out it was sold that sean in Morocco was the best action seen i have seen in years. I just hope matt samed has a future after that because the boune movies and last years the depared has proven he is an actor.

Shakey cam is terrible all the time. I hate it All The Time! It just reminds me that I’m watching a movie and that the person can’t direct!

complain about shake camera in the bourne supremacy and say its a mediun movie,and defend the action sequences saying its a amazing action film in that abortion called transformers its just absurd!!!

I truly enjoyed Ultimatum, but I disagree with the remarks about the shaky cam being a lot better than in Supremacy. I think it’s just as bad. The movie seems to fit the story, and it ties things up well, but the Identity is still better, IMO. Ultimatum seemed to stretch a little, but then, what action movie doesn’t these days?

I’d rate it a 7.5/10.

This next movie in the Bourne series is the best of all the three films. Action and Thriller mixed into one heart-pumping adrenaline rush, cat and mouse chase story that gets the audiences holding on to their seat, excited and curious about what�s going to happen on the next scene and the next one, the one after. You�d go out of the theater saying,� �Wow! That was cool!� Even the shaky camera method that Director Paul Greengrass likes to use just brings up the coolness even more.

Matt Damon has outdone himself with this performance. Many people who think that Bourne movies are not all that of an action thriller will now have to correct their criticism. The movie �Zodiac� earlier this year was a psychological thriller that brought us the difficulty of figuring out a serial killer, whereas �The Bourne Ultimatum� is a fast-paced thriller that involves espionage, politics, and the question of how far the government is willing keep their secrets hidden

This movie even has a great car chase scene.
The reason why I find Bruce Willis� movie �Live Free or Die Hard� more entertaining, because the character John McLane has more humor than Jason Bourne who tends to be serious most of the time and has a damn good reason to be.
If you�re looking to find an awesome time at the movies this summer, a movie that you can watch with family and friends without worrying what may or may not be appropriate for certain ages, then THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM is definitely a must see.

I saw this last night and thought it was the best of the trilogy. The shaky cam was at its worst in the beginning, but either A. it calms down or B. you get used to it. Either way, by the second half I didnt even notice it.

The ending was the best ending for the franchise bar none. The smile, the music, awesome. Anyway, I personally love this franchise and Matt Damon is great in all of them.

9/10 for me.

They will make it without Matt, trust.
The movie’s only coming next month over here, not fair! And Julia Styles in Bourne does the same thing Dunst does for Spiderman.
