JULIA STILES NOW WORKS IN FRANCE,AFTER BEING KILLED OFF IN THE BOURNE FILMS.

CELEBRITY Q AND A: MATT DAMON.

A Downtown Los Angeles Hotel waiting room, with a big flat screen TV.


Matt Damon: Who's winning? (NBA Finals Game 3)
Data Hard: Miami is ahead by 8 pts.

Damon: Really?!

Data: Yeah, they were ahead by- almost 15 at one point.

Damon uses his smart phone, to confirm the statement.

Damon: That is amazing. I heard the Spurs were on fire.

Data: In the fourth quarter, the Spurs just got tired...gave up or something.

They both watch the game, for few minutes.

Damon: Oh, I gotta go...I'm Matt Damon,by the way.

I nod knowingly, as Miami has scored- another impressive 3 pointer.

Damon: (as the ball is slam dunked) Damn. See Ya!

Data: Take Care.

Data Hard continues watching the game, glad he didn't bet anything Spurs.
 

The Bourne Ultimatum

First Contact: Captain
Score: Captain

The excellent, mind-blowing and highly smart spy trilogy culminates,as Jason B. finally gets insight into the amnesia based terminator that he is today.

Matt Damon minimalist style- continues to power the search of self discovery, no matter how many bodies pile up. From exciting cat and mouse chases from London to Tangiers, and lastly finishing in New York, Director Paul Greengrass gets maximum benefit form all his assets- in answering the comely killer's biggest question, "Who the hell am I?"

The best sequence involved- a fisticuffs spectacular between Joey Ansah and Damon close quarters- through a crummy apartment. At one point, when Jason is real danger of being killed...it is Nicki Parsons!? (Julia Styles) that tags herself into the proverbial ring and saves him. She applied, a well executed fish hook maneuver and pries "Desh" of the violent amnesiac.

Sadly, this costs her as the assassin lights her up with a viscous punch and painful kicks. Luckily, Jason finishes the scumbag off and for the first time ever, set off silent sparks in the strangely, developing chemistry between the two.

David Strathairn, is disgustingly mean (& a little thick headed) as main baddie. In the end, he lacks Brain Cox's articulate sliminess. Joan Allen shines, as Agent Pam Landy looking to let Jason do all the dirty work to help her destroy "Blackbriar" (the true power behind Treadstone.)Styles gives a performance as nuanced, manipulative and purposelessly vague, as Damon's work.

I guess it is official,Bourne's Ultimatum by Moby is the official James Bond theme (if you will) of the series. John Powell's mood music continues to score, but is starting to sound a little long in the tooth now.
