The Bourne Ultimatum: Someone should pay dearly for making this pile. - The Bourne Ultimatum Reviews


All he wanted was to disappear; instead, Jason Bourne is now hunted by the people who made him what he is--legendary assassin. Having lost his memory and the one person he loved, he is undeterred by the barrage of bullets and a new generation of highly-trained killers. Bourne has only one objective: to go back to the beginning and find out who he was. Now, in the new chapter of this espionage series, Bourne will hunt down his past in order to find a future. He must travel from Moscow, Paris and London to Tangier and New York City as he continues his quest to find the real Jason Bourne--all the while trying to outmaneuver the scores of cops, federal officers and Interpol agents with him in their crosshairs.

Someone should pay dearly for making this pile. - The Bourne Ultimatum Reviews

The worst job of directing I can remember. Half of the movie is extreme closeups of lifeless faces. They could have held up 8X10 glossies of the actors and gotten the same results, perhaps better. The other half consists of blurry, unwatchable action scenes that substitute frenzy for logic (in the first half of the final chase through New York streets, the streets are snowy and the cars filthy. In the second part, streets are clear and the same cars clean.) A woman behind me was holding her hands over her eyes during these pointless blurs, making the smartest person in the theater. The plot is silly. Boring, robotic performances are carefully coaxed from good actors. I want my money back, at least minimum wage for time wasted, and several million for emotional distress.
