probably the movie I am most looking forward to seeing this summer. I could pretty much spend days watching Bond and Bourne movies.

I'm with you on the Bourne series--I even enjoyed the Legacy movie with Jeremy Renner.

Definitely looking forward to this one.

I just saw it.

Here is a news flash: Tommy Lee Jones never has had a facelift!

I read one review that said Damon has little screen time. I thought he was on quite a bit.
I was able to follow the story and thought it was very well done except the climax was a little over the top but still a good movie.

Yeah, me too. I didn't think Spectre was as bad as a lot of people thought it was. Hope D. Craig comes back for Bond 25.

I saw this Friday night, liked it enough. I found the action, especially during vehicle chases to be cut so quickly and abruptly that it was almost like the screen could not keep up with the action. My son went along, and did not have the same opinion, so maybe it is just that I am old. We both found the need to suspend disbelief during some of the technology scenes- but that is kinda what movies are all about, right?

Jeremy Renner = George Lazenby of Bourne.

I heard Damon on both Dan Patrick and Rich Eisen last week. One of them asked about future movies, and he said he liked the Legacy movie and could see working with Renner in the future.


Patrick said he thought that Damon was looking a little haggard early in Bourne- he said that was the goal, to look like he had been living on the run for 10 years and had had enough. As mentioned above, TL Jones definitely looked like he'd been on the run for a decade...


I hope I am not naive in thinking some of the technology tricks are far fetched- I know cameras are everywhere, but instant realtime surveillance and having my computer hacked via a cell phone in the room seem a stretch.

Finally saw this.

Not much plot development, just plenty of action.

Kind of disappointed.

I think I haven't gone to see a show with my wife in over five years... maybe longer. So, sending the kids to grandma and going to see a show was nice.

As far the the actual cinematographic product:

- TLJ was mailing it in big time
- The plot seemed to have been haphazardly put together by media consultants/pollsters who had viewership sentiment measurement data from previous episodes
- I can't remember if Nikky was confirmed dead... there is a potential for a decent plot in a new episode if this wasn't confirmed
- The new character - the self-centered woman quarterbacking the operation for TLJ - was awful. Bring back Director Landy.

What happened to Tommy Lee Jones' face?

Good Lord! He's like a comic book villain.

The first one is great. The rest....there was at least one other good one in there.

I can never remember which one.

And you will almost certainly experience vertigo. Totally worth it for the first film.
