Rating: 7/10
Discouraged by the first film, i skipped the second to watch the third. It was very good, actually great indeed.
Set pieces throughout the film are spectacles and much more brilliantly made. Watching legendary Matt Damon jumping through windows was awesome and that follow up fistfight kept on the edge of my seat, worrying if any of the two protagonists would fall. It was just what I was expecting from this franchise. The plot/story has improved as well. We learnt more abt Bourne in the finale and there was stuff that's interesting to watch.
Just a little scene I wanna talk abt. Remember the very end of the film where Bourne was abt jump over the roof when an agent pointed his gun at him point blank. Instead of shooting instantly he asked Bourne why didn't he shoot him earlier that day. Bourne followed up with some meaningful monologue. That was very brilliant. It should be made longer to bring a film into another lvl, like adding a memorable quote will do. Also I find it odd for Bourne to consider murdering a random agent who was injured and harmless after a car crash. I know it is meant to built up for the scene I am talking about but, it shouldn't have worked this way right? Anyways.
Great Jason Bourne stuff here
