    Re: Bourne...

    awesome loved everything except the shaky camera technique. i really hate this new contemporary style of filming that many directors are adopting. it was really annoying but there was so much action from the start to the end that i forgave them... hehehe...

    Re: Bourne...

    I felt not enough blew up, but that's my benchmark of any film

    I loved the way they used a certain railway station as a major part of the film's events, it's nice to watch a sequence and know exactly where they're positioned.

    It's even better.... Though I agree about the shaky cam - well, more that there are so many fast cuts along side the shaky cam when there are fight scenes you never get a real sense of what's happening.

    Overall though, excellent. Roll on HD-DVD release!

    Re: Bourne...

    Was good, though shaky cam was overdone. Car chase was weakest of the series I thought, but the set pieces were great (love the one in the train station at the beginning)

    Re: Bourne...

    Does he have much of a script this time? I like the fact he doesn''t really say a lot in the first two films. Not that i have anything against him speaking, but the character is better for not having many lines.

    Excellent movie, definitly finished the trilogy off on a high. I still think the first is the best of the lot though.

    Re: Bourne...

    I really enjoyed it, saw it on a preview, and thought it was a brilliant film. Well worth the fiver the student ticket was. Some of the fight scenes had me wincing even...

    No chance. It's HD-DVD exclusive, like the other 2!

    I have both a BD-rom & an HD-DVD drive anyway, so I don't care!

    As for Miami Vice - you actually watched that? I honestly thought the trailer made the film look like a joke project.

    I avoided it like the plague.
