I'm surprised there isn't a thread about this movie yet.

I saw it a couple hours ago. It was freaking awesome. Other opinions?

Just saw it, and the fight scenes were crazy.

I saw it tonight also, and I liked it just as much as the other two. I thought that I was going to be completely confused because it's been years since I've seen the other two, but it filled in the gaps nicely. Fun movie, though I'm not a real big fan of the shaking cameras.

Couldn't tell what the fuck was going on at times because it was shaking so frantically.

Naturally. My friends always raved about when Bourne owns the other Treadstone agent in the second movie using a rolled up newspaper. That's got nothing on a book and a wet rag, though.

This movie also had the best car chase scene by far.

I saw it. It was eh ok. The shake of the camera started to get to me. But it you're going for the action scenes its FULL of them.:p

This movie was very well done. My favorite was the twist tied to the end of the second movie.

I haven't seen it yet, but I just want to say, I really really like Matt Damon.

MATT DAMON!

Anyways, I don't generally like Matt Damon, but he is really good in the Bourne movies and I can not wait to see the new one.

I saw the movie. Totally awesome and wraps it up in a nice little package. The whole shaky camera thing doesn't bother me because I don't notice it is shaking unless it is really bad. I can also forgive the shaky camera in this movie because they shoot most everything on site and with this globe trotting adventure and a schedule to stick to they don't always have the time to set everything up for still cameras when moving around all of these corridors and cities from around the world. Not to mention shooting at Waterloo Trainstation which is usually extreamly busy. You have to shoot while people are going about their lives. Not easy to get set cameras with these types of conditions.

Okay, the movie was great. Lots of action and such, however it seemed like a lot of filler to me. The 2nd movie ends with him spying on the FBI lady through the window in NYC and as the preview states "Bourne has come home".

They replay the exact scene about and hour and a half into the new movie. Just seemed like everything that took place before this point was just added crap. Anyone who read Ludlum's books knows that these movies don't follow the story lines at all and the characters are only loosely based on the originals, but this movie (story-wise) was seriously lacking.

All this aside, I coughed up my $7 for the matinee and will definitely be buying the DVD.

Good movie, nice adaption. I hope they don't make a 4th and 5th, which they did do with the books (not Authored by Ludlum thank God)

It was kickass, didn't mind the cameras, I was going to make a thread about it after I saw it but forgot.

i saw it in NYC after spending the day walking around Manhattan, so it was kind of neat at the end seeing places i had just been.

Fantastic stuff this. The Bourne movies make Bond redundant! Supremecy is still, well, supreme for me but this ran it close. Well done to all involved.

i saw the second one and thought it was complete crap, it didnt have enough action (3 scenes of it maybe?) so idk about this one

Really? Wow, I've never heard such stern words aimed at Supremecy before. The car chase for me is the best I've seen in any movie but I take your point about not enough action. That's part of the reason I love it so much. There's a good plot, great acting, fantastic characters and seeing Bourne try to apologise to the Russian kid for his actions was intense viewing. A cut above your average run of the mill action movie in my opinion.

I just got back from seeing it about an hour or so ago. It can be summed up nicely in one word. Awesome.
