"I like Matt Damon, but I think the Bourne movies are the most over-rated films in the last 20 years. Especially the vacuous third installment which was 120 pages in search of a plot."

I wasn't too fond of the third, they kinda phoned that one in, but I really (really) liked the first two, which rank among my favorite films of all time, in great part thanks to Damon's simmering performance and also thanks to the cinematography and general ambiance, which combined to give a very authentic European flavor IMHO. Gad, I loved those movies a lot. [shrug] To each his own.

I liked the first one a lot better than the other two. Maybe it was just the third one that threw me off the series. You’re right. It was phoned it. That script was probably eight pages of dialogue, and 110 pages of camera angles and action sequences.
