Film: The Bourne Ultimatum
Title: The Amnesic Assassin is Re-Bourne

The Plot:
The last in a trilogy following on from 'The Bourne Identity' and 'The Bourne Supremacy' featuring Matt Damon as amnesia-suffering Jason Bourne. This action-packed thriller follows Bourne on the run from the CIA and his mission to discover the secret to his unknown identity.

So, does it deserve the hype surrounding it?
As I sit here in my seat I, having not watched the previous two films in the trilogy, am unsure of whether I will understand the story but after reading rave reviews I can't resist it. No need to worry, as straight from the beginning I am totally aware of what is going on! As I watch this, I am constantly reminding myself that this action-thriller is so much more phenomenal than that of Mission Impossible and the indestructible 007! Jason Bourne is the new-look, hotter, sexier and smarter James Bond! The most amazing fight-scene revolves around Jason and Desh, starting with jumps through a window before they embroil in a gritty and exhilarating fight that ends in a grimy old bathroom! Throughout the entirety of the film, it is quite simply the equivalent of a high-speed car-chase that you just want to experience over and over again! Answering the question, it truly deserves the good press and surely kept me gripped! If you love the thrill of death-defying stunts- then this is, without a doubt, the movie for you! There are only two words to describe this film; utterly sensational!
