Doug Limon has destroyed the Bourne novels - don't watch if you like the books

Rating: 1/10 (17 May 2008)

What is wrong with this director? If you liked the Bourne books then do not watch his movies as it they make you cry. The book had a great story that was exciting but plausible - a well thought out novel. The only thing this film has in common with the book is that it 1) shares the same title, and 2) the main characters have the same name. Apart from that the story is completely different and just a typical brainless Hollywood action plot.
If the book had had the same plot as this movie then it would have never sold - you would have seen it with the other cheesy pulp at the supermarket checkout.
This director has a history of doing this. He butchered the plot of the Jumper book as well - I loved that books. Doug Liman turned it into pure cheese.
Does he think he can write better than these authors? Well he cannot. I am saddened by what he has done to these books. And if you are an author out there - DON'T LET HIM NEAR YOUR BOOK!!!
