The Bourne Ultimatum  — 

This is a great movie all around.

Now we are talking about the third installment in this series and it has the things that separate it from bad sequels:

1. Strong story.

2. It gives just enough of the back story so you aren't lost

3. The same actors continue to play the same characters.

4. The same director, so it continues with the same vision.

I am not a big fan of Matt Damon. As a matter of fact the only movies that he has done, that I enjoy, have been the Bourne movies. But he is great in this role. I also enjoy the way that they have brought Julie Stiles more toward the forefront of the story as well. ALso Joan Allen is phenominal again as Pamela Landy, the woman who holds her ground in the male dominated CIA.

If you enjoyed the first two installments of this series you will enjoy this one as well. If you haven't seen the first two, you owe it to yourself to watch them as well, but this one is more than capable of carrying itself on it's own merits.
