The Bourne Trilogy is an action-packed adventure that my husband (and I) love watching when it is on tv. It is suspenseful, exciting, and full of twists. There is some violence, but within the context of the super-secret CIA program it has a place. There are so many commercials on the cable networks, so even though we could use the DVR, we usually forget. With all three movies together, this is an excellent gift idea. No matter how many times we have seen the same parts on tv, we thoroughly enjoy the story and Matt Damon does an impressive job. I looked for this at various retail shops and it was about $40 retail. I wanted to buy a new sealed one for my husband for Christmas, but wanted to save money since we have a big family. I got a great deal and I am excited to finally find a present that was easy to pick out for my husband! I highly recommend this for a special man in your life who likes drama. Women will enjoy it also, since there is some romance and suspense with drama. One word of caution: wait until your children are in bed or in another room as there are many adult scenes.Read full review
If you are a spy-movie lover, then you should appreciate this collection. I enjoyed each of these movies. The story line has complexities but, is easy to follow with limited distractions(such as children, telephone, etc.). Each movie has a great cast of well-known and not so well-known actors that, in my opinion, all do a great job with their roles. Outstanding car chases and well-choreographed fight scenes make these movies exciting and fast-paced.I felt Matt Damon makes his lead role believable by appearing to be an average guy with above average training. The stunt work is wild and exciting, but not insanely unbelievable,such as sky-diving into moving cars, snow-boarding avalanches or cars that defy gravity or seemingly "can't be destroyed".I feel sure that if you enjoy films full of action, you will not be disappointed. I gave this film an excellent rating largely due to consistency, usually with sequels, one or more disappoints the viewer. These films didn't disappoint me, that's why I say Jason Bourne IS the man! I recently saw the Bourne Trilogy at Wal-Mart for $24.95, so shop around. Get your copy at a great price from a reputable Ebayer (like I did), and pop some popcorn. Enjoy!Read full review
The films themselves are great, of course - state-of-the-art action fare, made with enough money and skill to do the job. The DVDs include a lot of good supplemental material, too, and the transfers look great - properly letterboxed rather than 'enhanced' for 16:9 TVs, which really just means 'widescreen-but-we-still-cut-off-the-edges.' My only question is regarding this particular boxed set, in that the packaging looks a little suspect. I'm familiar enough with Universal's releases in general that my gut tells me this might well be a Chinese bootleg, and the price I paid makes it seem even more likely.
RE - The Bourne Trilogy (DVD 2008 Bundle of 3) I have always loved Mat Dillon. He is surpurb in this thriller. I love the fight scenes - just the right length. His abnesia is belieable and as his regret. And the twist at the end is very convencing. I was very impressed. The love story was good and the lady who played the love interest, well she was spectacular. Just the right amount of 'new to the game' mixed with fear of getting something wrong and the scene where she realizes that people are really dying right after they leave his appartment and the look she gives him a split second before she dies, these are all well done. I also apreciate that they didn't allow him to fall for the other lady so soon after loosing his 'lady love'. All in all, I think even with the artistic liscence taking, this is a very close representation of what the author was portrayed in the book. Good job all around!Read full review
Jason Bourne! I wasn't long ago if you mentioned the name; Jason Bourne, no one would know who, or what you were talking about. Matt Damon was bourne to play Jason, he is Jason & Jason is the best. If you haven't seen the series, watch them all, sit back (you won't be able to relax) and enjoy every thrilling moment.
