Reply #14: exactly -- I really have liked the Bourne movies but [View All]

thought this one was the weakest, even though everyone else seems wowed by all the fast zoomy things. You summed it up quite well, ThomCat -- lots of good action, but not as much substance as I would have liked. The 'quiet' scenes in this third installment weren't nearly as interesting as the conversation/quiet scenes in the first two.

I was disappointed - the first two movies stayed with me for a while, this one vanished as soon as I left the theater.

I think the supporting cast wasn't as powerful, either -- while David Straithern is usually fantastic, he somehow didn't even come close to Brian Cox or Chris Cooper. Albert Finney stays with a person, but Scott Glen in this one was superfluous.
