Opinion

The Bourne Ultimatum is a fantastic action film, and a brilliant conclusion to a trilogy that stands out. Director Paul Greengrass keeps making the right thing, and, like its prequels, this film is fuelled by action, suspense and an engaging screenplay. The car chase in New York was good, but the chase in Tangier was spectacular. The hand-held camera still confuses a bit, but it surely makes things look more realistic. The music is spot on and adds more thrill to the action scenes.

Matt Damon keeps doing a great job with Jason Bourne. The supporting cast - Joan Allen, Paddy Considine, David Strathairn, Albert Finney - stands out.
