When I saw this film at the cinema back in August 2007, I couldn't really get the hang of the film because of the sudden camera movements and also because I was on the very front row of the cinema. However, after seeing it again on DVD, I was blown away by it. I feel that they called the film "The Bourne Ultimatum" because it is, in my case, "The Ultimate Bourne" film because that is what it is. I don't think I was expecting half of what I actually did get out of this film. What I really love about the Bourne films are that they never stop! There's non-stop tension, action and coolness to the series. The Bourne Ultimatum is the one Bourne film where we as well as Bourne himself find out the truth and what really happened to him. The action in this film is very explosive and the most intense out of the whole trilogy.
Matt Damon's performance as Jason Bourne is obviously amazing once again! We see Bourne the darkest he has ever become before. He is a dark hero so to speak but obviously not a dark hero like Batman. Bourne returns for another story in his ears but this time it is the truth. There was a lot of tense moments where Bourne would either kill or spare the people he is attacking. Julia Stiles was awesome as Nicky Parsons. She gets herself into some deep trouble especially getting involved with Bourne.
Paul Greengrass has directed a very dark action thriller that is simply non-stop. I think that is the main thing that I love the most about The Bourne Ultimatum: because the action or the tension doesn't stop at all until the end credits. I have heard that there will be a fourth Bourne film called The Bourne Legacy but to be perfectly honest, I don't think there needs to be another one because we all know the truth of why Bourne is like he is and also it had such a brilliant ending.
Overall, The Bourne Ultimatum is one of the best films of 2007 and that was an outstanding year for cinema. The Bourne Ultimatum is the best of the trilogy and it totally deserves to be. I think the reason why most people love this one is because the action or suspense doesn't stop at all. Love this film!!
