Thanks for the review RR. Comments I have read included many saying that it was too far into the movie before any action started. The previews they've shown on tv show a jump from a building into a the window of another building. Great stunt work but was a scene in "Bourne Ultimatum." The CIA guy (the one that looks like Robert Kardashian - OJ's lawyer) Asking "Who is that guy", also is a familiar line from the last Bourne.
I likely will see it when it comes to HBO or tv but I won't have too high expectations. I can understand Damon not wanting to make another (sequels can get so worn out and actors type-cast to one role, tho don't know if that would be the case with Damon)BUT all the Bourne movies have really kept me on the edge of my seat and have been so entertaining. I'd be a sucker for another Bourne (with Damon anyway).

The lack of action early on wasn't the problem. (I mean how long before the action in DIE HARD start, 30 minutes in? Would modern audiences call DH boring?)
It's just tedious set-up with BOURNE LETHARGY. It's the usual shit that in rewrites you eliminate or compress in making your points or tell your story but with a quicker route. LETHARGY didn't.
I hope that movie proves to snobs that popcorn, no matter how much you want to dismiss it as a toy commercial or bland tentpole commercialism, are still hard work that isn't as easy as hooking up your new TV. It's not a sleep walk, even for good filmmakers or respected ones. An art really that seperate the good ones from the junk like this or the recent lame TOTAL REACLL remake that'll quickly fade into deserving obscurity.
