Viewing Notes

It’s hard to argue against this as being the best of the trilogy, but I still prefer The Bourne Supremacy as my favorite of the three, mainly for story reasons.

Still, the combined motorcycle/scooter/rooftop foot chase scene that culminates in probably the best, most raw and physically exhausting hand-to-hand combat scene ever committed to film definitely sets this movie above the others.

All said and done, watching all three of these movies is still a ton of fun. The only thing that’s come close to the adrenaline rush of these movies in recent memory would be the recent Bond movies, Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace.
