I have only seen the first Bourne movie. I read all three books and loved them. When hubby and I saw the first movie, we were so disappointed that we haven’t the stomach(s) to see the rest.
Matt Damon is nowhere close to what I pictured for Jason Bourne. I won’t say the word that comes to mind when I see Matt Damon. Maybe we’ll watch them on video someday.

The trick is just to accept the fact that the screenplay is only loosely based on the Bourne novels. Accurately reproducing any large amount of the plot in those novels would just take far more screen time to achieve, and would probably just be confusing to the viewers. Taken on their own merits, I think the Bourne movies are pretty good. I just saw the “Ultimatum” last night and thought it was quite entertaining. Better than the second one, I think, and maybe the first, too.
I also agree with others that the shaky camera work continues to be distracting in many cases.
