Excellent action flick

Rating: 9/10 (3 August 2007)

I liked almost every aspect of this movie, which I deem the best of the series. The only bad part was the camera work, at times making some people in the audience almost sick. During one of the big car chase scenes, after the crash has stopped and everything comes to a halt, the camera is still shaking like the stabilization on it wasn't working (or it was an earthquake). Some of the action scenes like the fight in the building was nothing but a bunch of blurry scenes. I can understand that the action is intense and their motions would be blurry and quick in the hand-to-hand shots, but even the background is blurry because the whole camera is moving in sweeping motions. It just seemed distracting to me, and I actually heard one lady in front of me say she couldn't watch, it was making her stomach queasy. Other than the camera work in spots, a very good movie, nice plot, and I loved the scene from the Assistant director's office ("We'd be having this conversation face to face!")
