From what I heard the action is good. Unfortunately, they had to load this flick up full of the usual leftwing propaganda bilge.

I’m still not over hollywood screwing up the last Tom Clancy movie, I think it was the Sum of All Fears. With Damon’s buddy Ben Affleck.

Ben Affleck made American audiences root for the Japanese in Pearl Harbor.

The word “sedition” used to mean something. But, then, these are the times in which we’re living.

I can’t stand Affleck. Politics aside I just don’t think he’s a good actor. As for Damon he’s been good in the Bourne movies. And he was great in The Departed. What a great film.

I saw it today.

Having seen the 1st two Jason Bourne movies, not for one moment did I interpret what I saw on the screen as being anti-Republican or a slam on Cheney.

BTW, it was fabulous!

They are going farther and farther, actually. The left now openly preaches that the true Hero of the Proletarian Vanguard should shoot every fascist on sight to Save the World.

I can’t wait to see this movie. The Bourne movies are among my favorite.

Here is some of the review from the ultra left SF Chron.

This is a movie about fear - a government's fear of its citizens and citizens' fear of their government. It's a movie about surveillance, with people being watched at virtually every moment. Finally, it's about philosophies in collision, about how much safety can be bought at the price of freedom and about the kinds of personalities that gravitate toward the totalitarian mind-set.

When is Hollywood going to realize that they lose more people than they gain when they insert their liberal political propaganda in movies?

...a scene where Bourne strangles to death an obviously Arab enemy assassin

LOL - I swear it appeared that the beat the crap out of and then strangled the arab with a Koran. I just did not see this much overt Liberalism in this one. There was the byplay between the "good" and "evil" inside the Agency, but the idea of catching rather than killing that Landy exibits at least offered the chance for more information (that the others did not want her to have.)

Another looney leftist. Didn’t Matt blame everyone for “global-warming”?

It was not stop action, sit on the edge of your seat kind of stuff. I liked it, altho I did think it was pretty PC. But I’m so used to the from Hollywood, it’s like water off a duck’s back.
Is this the last of the series?

We saw it yesterday afternoon. It was two hours of fantastic entertainment. Well worth it.

I learned to like Matt Damon in “The Talented Mr. Ripley.”
