The Bourne Ultimatum (Review)

ENG

On the edge: A last mission with Jason Bourne
Matt Damon is back with his best character and characterization so far as the CIA ex-assassin dark secret agent Jason Bourne, Damon is Bourne. It seems as if the character was created for him.
The Bourne Ultimatum starts just after the meeting with Neski's daughter in Russia, not with the Pamela Landy chat scene in New York, that has not happened yet, you will realize later. Pieces are filling the puzzle, it's time to get back the past taken.
This third and last installment in the Bourne trilogy is a fast-paced, non-stoping action movie that will have the viewer at the edge of the seat the whole time. Filmed in impressive locations around the globe, bringing back all the exciting elements of the previous movies and introducing new ones, presenting credible acting performance, a near flawless script, breathtaking visual effects, a notable (shaky) on-hand camera work and an awesome direction (again) by Paul Greengrass.

Both, from a action movie enthusiast or a hard critic specialist, the outcome is one, Ultimatum is such a remarkable job.

So, do yourself a favor and go watch it, it's not hype, you will be craving for more Bourne at the end. If more movies were like this one, the world would be a better place to live...watching movies.
