Saw it earlier - I was disappointed tbh. If felt a bit of a rehash of earlier films, same format, similar story. There was a lack of suspense imo - the car chase was good though Grin I think it could have done with a bit more fleshing out of the characters/story to make it more plausible. It felt like they added to his back story in a way that was trying to justify the film, not because it made sense. It lacked 'edge' & that was what I loved most about the earlier films. So it gets a 'meh' from me.

I really liked it. Rarely go to the cinema but booked this as love the other films. And love Matt Damon.

Very enjoyable, didn't have to think too much Grin and it was shot in lots of different locations.

Bit too much violence for me but still, I would recommend.

I saw it this evening and it was pretty much crash bang wallop from the get go, with about half a page of dialogue. The last bit of car chase washed over me and left me pretty cold. Sets up the next one if anyone is interested.

I didn't put the YouTube trailer in my post. I wouldn't know how.
So who did?

Disappointed. Admittedly we were on the front row but I found the blurry action soporific and keep dropping off. Watched Ultimatum the night before and it was so clever and entertaining. This was just bang, crash, blur.

Disappointed here. It was a shadow of the first Bourne films.

Thoroughly enjoyed it. They're definitely formulaic, but it works

Did enjoy it but the Bourne Identity still my fave

IBelieveTheEarthIsFlat · 24/09/2016 21:02

Oh come on. It's Matt Damon. It's the same as watching 24. some of them were not quite as good perhaps but it was Jack Bauer and all was forgiven.

And is the real reason that we must love Matt Damon
