I saw the first two movies and have read the first book. Loved them all. I'm anxious to see the third movie but finding the time is always an issue these days. I picked up the other two books recently. Cheesy

The Ultimatum is one of the few third movies in a trilogy that is worthy of the series. I was satisfied.

Definitely worth seeing.

In fact if you haven't seen the first two watch them and then watch this.

The fight scenes in the Bourne films have always been gritty, there is a big fight scene in the third where you feel every blow, block, kick and punch. By the end of it YOU feel exhausted.

See it, if you don't.... there is something wrong with you!

While the movies are good, I would NOT read he book before seeing the movie (_is_ there a book that this movie is made from?).  The movies depart a great deal from the books which ruins the experience for me.  They even change the plot in the Bourne Supremacy (there's is very little that's the same between the book and the movie).

Personally, I wish they would _try_ to stay true to the book when they make a movie.  If they can't do it, then they shouldn't make it.  I still have never seen Sum of All Fears, mainly because they changed the middle eastern terrorists to neo-nazis.  The other reason is that they cast Ben Aflac as Jack Ryan.  What a _terrible_ actor.

Matt Damon did a great job in the first two movies.  If he tries to stay true to the role, then I think it'll be a great way to spend 90 minutes.
