Critics Consensus

The Bourne Ultimatum is an intelligent, finely tuned non-stop thrill ride. Another strong performance from Matt Damon and sharp camerawork from Paul Greengrass make this the finest installment of the Bourne trilogy.

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

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.

Paul Greengrass, who also directed 'The Bourne Supremacy, continues his rough and ready style of choreographing complex action scenes on location 'and throwing the audience into the middle of the chaos...

Unless the spectator is prepared to relinquish his or her ability to reflect on things almost entirely for two hours or so, Greengrass's film does not stand up to close scrutiny.

Greengrass knows how to shoot action. There is a hand-to-hand combat scene in Morocco that is as exciting, chaotic and violent as any sequence in the Bourne movies, I just wish he had spent more time on the moments between the mayhem.

A great conclusion to a trilogy, offering nothing new but taking the best aspects of the first and second films and delivering a long, action-packed, fun, and lighthearted movie.

Very much worth watching, just induced me a bit of a headache with the incessant cuts between fighting scenes left and right up and down, it affected my eyes lol.

I really liked the ending of this trilogy; it certainly shaped the action movies that came after it.

The best "ULTIMATUM" ever seen before in a spy saga, always taking the most realistic sense possible (great sample of what the CIA is) xd
