Author's Note: Sorry this review is a little late, but I just saw it last weekend so it's new for me.
The Bourne Trilogies were originally written by Robert Ludlum. The Bourne Ultimatum is the third installment. It was directed by Paul Greengrass and was produced by Patrick Crowley, Frank Marshall, Paul Sandberg, and Doug Liman. The music was by John Powell. It was distributed by Universal Pictures.
The Bourne Ultimatum was released in the U.S. and Canada on August 3, 2007. It is 111 minuets long and it took 110 Million dollars to make. It has (so far) grossed $345,218,805 worldwide.
The Bourne Ultimatum follows The Bourne Identity and The Bourne Supremacy. It is six weeks after Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) escaped from Russia where is girlfriend was shot in the head and killed. He goes to Paris and reads an article about him written by a man named Simon Ross. The article releases some information about Jason that was disclosed.
The CIA finds out about the article and tracks down Simon. Jason finds him first. He takes him to the "Waterloo station" and the CIA follows them. Jason gives Simon a place to hide and tries to find a way out because the CIA had the station cornered. They are communicating by cell phone. Jason tells Simon to stay where he is but Simon hears someone coming. Out of panic, he exits the hiding place and is immediately killed.
Jason has flashbacks of when he is first recruited to the CIA but they never had much detail. As he continues to search for his identity, the CIA continues to tail him. Will he finally find out the information he needs to know? Or will the CIA kill him on the way? The only way to find out is to watch the movie.
I, personally, enjoyed this movie very much. One of the best movies I've seen in a while. I watched the first two movies and if anyone hasn't I would recommend you to before you see the third one or you will be very lost. I didn't really pay attention in the first two movies and I was asking my brother what was happening every two minuets.
Watch the Bourne Ultimatum!
