Product Description Universal Bourne Ultimatum - HD-DVD/DVD Combo Matt Damon is back as Jason Bourne for the latest installmentof this smart, action-packed espionage series as he finally learns the truth behind his mysterious past. Bourne (Damon) is now pitted against a new generation of highly-trained assassins as well as the relentless CIA operatives who will stop at nothing to prevent him from learning his true identity. Delivering signature Bourne fight and chase sequences, "The Bourne Ultimatum" is the ultimate action thriller.
Amazon.com The often breathtaking, final installment in the Bourne trilogy finds the titular assassin with no memory closing in on his past, finally answering his own questions about his real identity and how he came to be a seemingly unstoppable killing machine. Matt Damon returns for another intensely physical performance as Jason Bourne, the rogue operative at war with the CIA, which made him who and what he is and managed to kill his girlfriend in the series' second film, The Bourne Supremacy. Now looking for payback, Bourne goes in search for the renegade chief of CIA operations in Europe and North Africa, partnering for a time with a mysterious woman from his past (Julia Stiles) and constantly--constantly--on the run from assassins, intelligence foot soldiers, and cops. Directed by Paul Greengrass (United 93) with the director's thrilling, trademark textures and shaky, documentary style, The Bourne Ultimatum is largely a succession of action scenes that reveal a lot about the story's characters while they're under duress. Joan Allen, Albert Finney, David Strathairn, Scott Glenn, and Paddy Considine comprise the film's terrific supporting cast, and the well-traveled movie leads viewers through Turin, Madrid, Tangiers, Paris, London, and New York. Overall, this is a satisfying conclusion to Bourne's exciting and protracted mystery. --Tom Keogh

Amazon.com An abundance of bonus features are included on both the standard DVD and high definition DVD formats. The 24-minute "Man on the Move: Jason Bourne" featurette follows Matt Damon and the entire movie-making crew on location around the globe through Berlin, Paris, London, Madrid, and Tangier with lots of commentary from producers Patrick Crowley and Paul Sandberg, actor Matt Damon, stuntmen, and a host of others involved in the film. What comes across loud and clear are the immense logistical difficulties involved in such an ambitious film like filming in London's Waterloo station, one of the world's busiest and most crowded train stations, making cold bare Berlin match snowy Moscow where The Bourne Supremacy ended and The Bourne Ultimatum begins, working around the clock in Madrid, and virtually closing off the main square of Tangier for days at a time. The "Rooftop Pursuit" feature provides an in-depth look at the amazing stunt and camera work involved in shooting the intense Tangier rooftop pursuit while "Planning the Punches" explores the martial arts training and special breakaway props utilized throughout the many fight scenes in the film. Matt Damon's gleeful participation in the New York chase scene is highlighted in the "Driving School" feature and the immense logistics of filming a car chase in New York are explored in "New York Chase." Commentary for the entire film is provided by director Paul Greengrass and 12-minutes of deleted scenes are also included. The HDDVD also includes a "Be Bourne Spy Training" aptitude test in which viewers watch 20 clips from the movie and are tested on their observation skills--connecting to the internet allows viewers to download their results directly to their HD DVD player. The "U Control" picture in picture option allows viewers to access cast and crew interviews and behind-the-scenes footage including excerpts from most of the aforementioned bonus features without leaving the movie, providing a rich, in-depth explanation of a multitude of important plot points. Viewers can also access the Blackbriar files while watching the film for additional detailed information about the characters, locations, and spy gadgets--a feature which adds a whole new level of understanding and meaning to the viewing experience. Car enthusiasts will enjoy pulling up technical information about the Volkswagen Touareg featured in the film's chase sequence and connecting to the download center for even more information on this featured vehicle. Viewers can also bookmark their favorite scenes for repeated watching. --Tami Horiuchi

Get some sleep, Pam. You look tired August 20, 2008 OhioTechyDude (Medina, Ohio) Matt Damon is superb in the third Bourne film and I hope there's a fourth. Some of the best stunt and fight work I've seen in years. The intrigue keeps you on the edge of your seat (okay, my couch...) and is worth the nail chewing. Buy it!
What is not to love? August 19, 2008 N. Bruske (USA) Great movie! You must watch the other two. He is such a wonderful actor. The movie is action packed and suspenseful.
XBOX 360 HD Drive users....Just press OK on the remote. August 3, 2008 Big Bun (SF Bay Area, USA) I was upset that the HD side of the dvd didn't work. I even though that it was defective and sent it back for another one and the new didn't work either. I so PO I was ready to just give up...until I came across the person who said that using the XBOX 360 HD DVD drive just press OK on the remote and it should work. It can't be that simple right....well I tried it and worked perfectly, so I wacthed the movie again in HD this time and enjoyed every minute of it!!!! Thank's for the help and I hope this may help someone else.
Bourne is back and exciting as ever July 25, 2008 Pistol Pete (Houston, TX United States) Bourne is back for the third installment of the series. If you haven't seen the first two, they aren't necessary, but I would highly recommend them. In this episode, Bourne is more reflective as he tries to piece together his past. The reflection does not last long before chase scenes and fighting sets in. The story is good, as are the action sequences. I enjoyed it thoroughly.
While the action genre is not my favorite, I do enjoy an occasional action show. And since my brother had a new surround sound stereo to go with his new big screen, it was an ideal time to enjoy. I think that if you view them in moderation, they are much better individually.
deja vu again July 24, 2008 lee jackson (pico rivera, ca United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
As I watched THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM I kept thinking to myself, "Haven't I seen this before?" and then I realized I essentially had but it was done better in THE BOURNE SUPREMECY. This film is passably entertaining with lots of action, okay acting, and a somewhat silly storyline with a lot of coincidence and far-fetched crap thrown in. What really ruined it for me is the ever pervading moving, hand-held, shaky camera technique. What is it with film-makers and their dependency on this gimmickery style? An action film should not have to rely on shaky camera and fast pans to create an illusion of action. The car chases in the first two films were far more exciting and innovative. In the ULTIMATUM the car chases were marred by dizzying camera-work and editing that detracted greatly from the action. Perhaps the creators of these types of works are cutting corners on the budget by substituting real action with the illusion of action created by camera work. Or maybe they are just trying to be edgy. For goodness sake, film-makers--enough with the dizzying cinematography and let the edginess come from the story, the acting, and real stunts and action.
