At last a decent trilogy conclusion!

Rating: 10/10 (19 August 2007)

I rarely give out a 10 but the Bourne Ultimatum deserves it not just for the terrific ride that it takes us on but for giving us a great conclusion to what is (in my humble opinion) one of the best trilogies ever. It doesn't feel contrived, drawn out or in any way just cashing in on previous films as other series have.
Greengrass carries on where he left off from Supremacy complete with the hand held camera that places you in the heart of the action. This seems to have divided opinion but for me it works brilliantly especially with the fight and car chase scenes.
Much as I would love to see more Bourne it's hard to see where they would go with the character now especially as this film ties up all the loose ends from the previous two in a really satisfying way. i know there have been sequels written to the Ludlum books but to be fair the films bear little resemblance to the novels.
One thing for sure is that the Bourne trilogy has reinvented the spy genre and it's something that hasn't gone unnoticed by the James Bond franchise with their recent reworking of Casino Royale.
Definitely one to see more than once.
