First came Identity, then Supremacy, and now Ultimatum. One of the greatest action movie series ever created.
Steph and I joined Michael and Sarah this weekend to see the third installment in the Bourne series. It did not disappoint.
Let's get something straight. Bourne is NOT a Bond. Bourne doesn't have neat gadgetry, a sports car, a tuxedo, nor the want to charm anyone. Instead, he has a book, a newspaper, bare hands, and street clothes. I won't spoil anything for those of you that have yet to enjoy the latest in the series. You will [hopefully] notice that the end of Supremacy was actually well into Ultimatum. We learn just how Jason Bourne/David Webb came to be and why he is seriously, undoubtedly, pissed off. (The whole promised-one-thing, doing-another trick.)
Matt Damon is an action hero (ahem, the chase in Morocco). He doesn't need Ben Affleck getting in his way. Julia Stiles is back -- at first as eye candy, but you realize she's wrapped into the plot more than ever before. And, if there's not a fourth movie, a lot of people will always be asking questions.
See this movie, my friends -- only after you've seen Identity and Supremacy, of course. It rocks.
