Smart Action Thriller

Matt Damon returns as the amnesiac billion dollar weapon Jason Bourne. In the third and possibly last film to Bourne series, Bourne decides it’s time to stop running and face his demons by finally finding out who he is and stopping the Treadstone organisation that are threatening to eliminate him. The Bourne Ultimatum is definitely film of 2007. Matt Damon is superb as Bourne, aka the anti James Bond. He doesn’t have the charm of Bond but the love of his dead girlfriend in Marie makes his journey to end it all, very human for someone who was trained to be a contract killer soldier. Every scene will keep you guessing as you unravel Bourne’s hidden past. With a fantastic script and cinematic and dramatic action scenes from director Paul Greengrass, this smart, action thriller film really does live up to the hype and gives a well deserved ending to the whole trilogy of Bourne films.
