Bourne is once again brought out of hiding, this time inadvertently by
London-based reporter Simon Ross who is trying to unveil Operation
Blackbriar--an upgrade to Project Treadstone--in a series of newspaper
columns. Bourne sets up a meeting with Ross and realizes instantly
they're being scanned. Information from the reporter stirs a new set of
memories, and Bourne must finally, ultimately, uncover his dark past
whilst dodging The Company's best efforts in trying to eradicate him.
Absolutely fantastic! :D Edge-of-your-seat chase scene, tear wrenching flashbacks, and nail-biting fights. The acting from Matt Damon, Joan Allen, Julia Stiles, and David Strathairn is beautiful.And it was so neat how they did the pacing and camera work. I just loved it, I was hooked from beginning to end.
Content : A lot of uses of God's name in vain (including Jesus Christ, and Godd*mmit) and one or two s-words, but no f-words. 4/10
The violence was pretty strong, especially one part that was disturbing and slightly startling, then another part when a man is snipped and you see, from a distance, a mist of blood, and later a pool underneath his head. There are intense car chases, then one fight scene that could be disturbing, resulting in someone dying. And the flash backs were fairly disturbing. 6/10 for violence, 7/10 for disturbing content.Sexual junk: one flashback scene with rather passionate kissing. That's all. 2/10
....
I seriously love this trilogy. There is just a feeling to them that gives you chills (and sometimes not in a good way) that it's just so amazing. And the score is so neat. So I give The Bourne Ultimatum 5/5, and
the overall trilogy 10/5. Age recommendation. Mature 13 and up. There was some serious stuff in there.
J.A.M.
P.S. Keep a look out for a review in August for The Bourne Legacy. I am so stoked!!
