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!

...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.)

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

“BTW, it was fabulous!”

I saw it Saturday and loved it. Did you catch the little continuity error at the end with the Sig and Glock?

I saw the first two Bourne movies, and I also don't see any connection between the movies and Bush or Cheney or any real world organization.

There are antagonists (that's bad people, for Democrat lurkers) in every story. Some people just see a bad character and their BDS screams Bush!

Maybe the specific reference to waterboarding, if there is one in the new movie, is a slap at Cheney. I'm going to see it to watch stuff blow up.

I saw it the same way you did.

Seems to me that the plot indicated that the Administration was unaware of the assassination (by Bourne) of US citizens and the rogue, high level CIA officers bragged that they ordered the killings themselves.

Obviously a section of CIA engaging in insurrection. There is not a HINT that the White house is involved with the bad guys.

And, yeah it is good. I enjoyed the Quran , your windpipe scene.

The Bourne Ultimatum..was written in 1990....
...how would this one be any different than any other 'rogue CIA agent' scenario we read/see in any number of books, movies.

Having enjoyed the first two, I expect I will like this one too.....the reviews are great.

I’m so glad someone liked it. I am planning to see it next weekend. I am preparing myself. I watched the first movie again today and am going to watch the 2nd one this week. My husband has agreed to watch the kids for me so I can go on a “girls night out” with some friends to see the 3rd. I am so excited.

Ditto. Saw it today, too. Dick Cheney never crossed my mind!
