Wake me up when it's over !!!! February 17, 2008 The Tree of Woes (Perdition) 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
I almost think there was a typo when they created the title. It probably was and should have been The Boring Ultimatum. I am finally out of the hospital and now able to write a review, having been admitted for severe ad nauseum and vertigo after viewing this time-waster. I am sure it was caused from all the camera shaking. I have always believed if a director has to shake the crap out of a camera to give the feeling of "action" it can be a good thing if it is for a minute, but if it is for the whole movie, then there is a problem. It felt like it was filmed with a $60 handycam. This movie was so shaky all the way to the end, it was both annoying and extremely distracting from what little interest the flick generated for me. I admit it took me 3 tries to suffer all the way to the end. I fell asleep many times and when i woke up i didnt know if I was watching the Boring Identity or the other one, the name escapes now. This movie was pure crap and all I saw was one long boring chase scene complete with same old cliches, the same old evil people in the government, blah blah blah. I dont even recommend this movie for a $2.00 rental, but it may work well as a door stop on a windy day. I do however recommend the movie called Shooter, starring Mark Wahlberg. The same genre, but a much more entertaining and exciting flick. It had a good storyline, lots of action, good characters, lots of twists and turns, and best of all, the camera wasn't shaking for two hours. What a bonus !!!
Piece of garbage January 28, 2008 Pistol (Canada) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This movie is one long chase scene. And that's it. It insults your intelligence. The interaction between characters is non existent and so is the dialogue. The CIA is just so good at finding who did it by just punching it up on a computer in a room full of people in New York. But they can't seem to catch one guy across how many places? And why exactly? Because he was part of some secret program. Who cares? This was all played out in the 80's and is old news. Oh yeah and those people in New York that can see everyone and everything anywhere in the world. Funny how they need to punch up the pictures of their own agents on their computers and put it on a screen that has a current picture that was taken minutes ago. They are so good it even has the female agents blond streaks of her current coif. Crap if I ever saw it. And that reporter was such a threat they had to kill him in the middle of a crowded London Mall. And it was so easy to find out who the inside leak was by checking to see who was not using their cell phone by once again using that computer. Should have let the computer catch Bourne. But that would mean the movie would be over in 5 minutes. Don't waste your time or your money watching or buying this junk. I'm sorry I did.
Possibly the best in the series December 30, 2007 Matthew King The Bourne series proves to be one that continues to be worth watching with this, the third installment of the popular saga based on Robert Ludlum's novels. This installment is a vast improvement on the 2nd film, which was mediocre at best, and stands on par with the classic first film of the franchise. "The Bourne Ultimatum" is by far the most revealing episode of the series as Bourne continuously learns revealing bits and pieces of who he is, all while the CIA is trying to thwart his attempts by assasinating him. The action never really lets up in this movie and Matt Damon does a fanatastic acting job, as has been customary of him. In a year marred with bad "threequels" such as the SpiderMan and Pirates of the Carribean entries, this film truly shines.
Great Movie - Less Expensive Elsewhere December 12, 2007 T. Blackwell 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
This movie is exciting, not the weakest in the series. Why is it selling for $14.99 on amazon.com? Future Shop is selling both full screen and widescreen editions for $19.99
Motion sickness possible but great otherwise November 24, 2007 Chris S (Alberta, Canada) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
This was far better than #2 and explained many of the things which you were left thinking "How was that possible" from the second one. While there was thankfully not the overkill of car chases in this one, the over use of the hand cam, running after the action did leave you with a strong feeling of motion sickness, even from the back of the theater. Hopefully this will not be so with the DVD. Otherwise it's one of the best movies this year.
