The viewing audiences may be below par, but the film's enjoyable

Rating: 8/10 (5 August 2007)

Okay, folks, I must be one in a thousand, since I was the only one to laugh at a line in the movie "Bourne Ultimatum" where a lead character says "you can't make this stuff up." In case you don't get the joke, the movie is fiction, so the whole thing is made up. And if you doubt it, then you may believe that George Washington's niece was the first spy for what later became the CIA, and her great-great-grandson George Bush (the father of W.) later became head of the CIA. You know: "you can't make this stuff up."
The movie is fun and fast, and visually tough to follow. I agree with the critic (quoted on TV's "The Daily Show") who said: "Will someone tell this director about the steadicam." The good parts about this film have the characters who are what I wish I could be: smart, athletic, and able to do anything and defeat almost everyone. It does suffer a little bit from what I call the "Mr. Bond, I'm going to kill you, but first let me show you the la-bore-a-tor-ree."
