An honest to goodness review for this movie

OVERALL
You'll be gripping your soda so tight it'll leak.

Superlethal rogue agent Jason Bourne is back with style in this hyperaction (in a good way) installment in the series. It really is the best one of the trilogy, it's VERY action packed. The best scene from the entire trilogy comes in the form of a foot chase through Morocco, and in my humble opinion, the second best scene comes in the car chase at the end.

STORY
If you loved the first, felt so-so about the second, this third film's gonna charm you.
This time it's personal. Jason Bourne is really, really angry at the agency that took his identity, killed his girlfriend, and keeps trying to assasinate him. So he sets his sights on eliminating them at their source: The HQ where they call their shots from. They've cast a new guy at the agency (David Strathairn) to replace the one that shot himself in the last one, and he's incredibly good, great chemistry with Damon.

CAMERA AND SCORE
The camera work is great, especially the car chase scene at the end, they do some stuff you've never seen before. However, I do get tired of the shaky camera thing, it can be nauseating after awhile, it looks like they just mounted a camera to the head of a seal and turned it loose.
The score is loud and moving.
