t's full of tension, but it's also disturbing on another level: it's hard not to be reminded of recent events.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 23, 2015

If it feels like a non-stop demolition derby, at least there's a responsible driver at the wheel. The British director Paul Greengrass makes everything seem more plausible with twitchy camerawork and even twitchier editing.

I'm sure a lot of people will find it thrilling. Me, I just wanted to get headache [or] seasickness tablets.

Bourne -- or whatever his name really is -- is such a resourceful and reckless agent of chaos, we thrill to him despite the fact that he's officially a non-entity.

| Aug 4, 2013

While the crunchy fights and unflagging pace ensure this delivers as genre spectacle, the muddy ethics also make for a pleasing contrast with standard-issue wham-bammery.

Full Review | Original Score: 5/5 | Nov 17, 2011

Greengrass comes full circle from the War on Terror film that bit its tongue to the popcorn flick that speaks volumes.

| Original Score: C | Dec 1, 2009

A trio of superb cat-and-mouse sequences ... more effectively pinpoint Bourne's psychological anxiety and confusion than Damon's robotic, one-note performance.

| Original Score: C | Dec 18, 2007

Not only far and away this summer's best three-peat, it's a pulse-pounding peak to Matt Damon's spy trilogy.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Sep 22, 2007

As good as the first two films were, as well as they redefined the action espionage thriller, the third film falls victim to its own innovation.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 31, 2007

If it wasn't for the fact that the director, Paul Greengrass is more than capable in his most popular guise, and that the story itself has an edge, we might be longing for a bit of quiet between the insistent roar of it all.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 17, 2007

Streamlined, brisk and tight.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 17, 2007

A breathless and deliriously exhilarating summit.

| Aug 17, 2007

A rattling yarn exuberantly told, crunchingly violent but not too sadistic.

| Aug 17, 2007

Our hero is the ferocious but amnesiac CIA tough guy Jason Bourne played by Matt Damon, the contours of whose rock-hard pecs are traced by his drum-tight T-shirt. It's the role that turned this moon-faced boy into a man.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 17, 2007

There is nothing cheap about the bone-shattering beauty of his car smashes, or the pitch-perfect symphonies of shattering glass.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 17, 2007

A heart-pounding, merciless thrill ride that will leave you gasping for breath.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 14, 2007

Watching The Bourne Ultimatum is like being strapped to a vibrating bed set on high for two hours in a cheap motel.

| Aug 13, 2007

The payoff Bourne fans have been waiting for.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Aug 6, 2007

A great action movie, exhilarating and neatly crafted, the kind of picture that will still look good 20 or 30 years from now.

| Aug 6, 2007

We've waited all summer for a wild ride to grab us with more than jolts. Now it's here. Hang on.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Aug 6, 2007
