Review:
With stellar acting, directing and stunt work, The Bourne Ultimatum proves to be a suspenseful, action-packed finish to the critically-acclaimed Bourne trilogy. This film explores the morality of Bourne's action is greater depth, thus strengthening him as a character. It also gives Joan Allen's character a more integral role, showcasing Allen's talent as an actress. Abounding with surprises, this movie begins and ends with a bang. It's clear that Greengrass saved the best for last. I highly recommend The Bourne Ultimatum.

For Parents:
There is some language, including religious terms, used by the CIA agents. A man dies from a gunshot wound to the head. Bourne suffocates an enemy hit man in the corner of a bathroom. But the violence in The Bourne Ultimatum is less graphic than the violence in the previous two.

My Rating:
*****
