Advantages: Watching Jason kick some a*ses!
Disadvantages: Some of the stunts are a little far fetched?

...and Lock Stock, I thought the Transporter (I and II) would be equally good. Unfortunately, it is far, far from being as good BUT.... if you are a fan of films like XXX and action packed movies with crazy stunts and mad fight scenes, then you should enjoy it. Jason (Frank Martin in the film) did most of the stunts himself, which is quite an achievement in itself. In my opinion, the first film was way better than the second one, in that the story ...
...a lot less dodgy. The car chases are most enjoyable in both but in the second one, one of the stunts in nothing short of 'appalling'. Frank Martin ends up with a bomb stuck under his car so he simply gets rid of the unwanted bomb by taking off sideways and grazing a pillar which knocks it off. Another pretty dodgy stunt was when he drives off the roof of a building and lands on the building opposite (but not on the roof!) a few levels down as the ... Read review

Advantages: Great all round movie.
Disadvantages: A lot of violence

Apocalypto is the story of a happy Indian youth ripped savagely from his rainforest life by ruthless, bloodthirsty Mayan warriors. Its portrayal of the Mayan culture -- including its strange dress, hair styles, costumes, tattoos, body piercing, and decorative scars, as well as its industry, class system, cities, warfare, weapons, myth, and religion -- provide a bizarre and fascinating backdrop for what is, at its heart, a solid, thrilling, fast paced ...
...The movie does have a lot of violence, which although not for the faint hearted, is a realistic part of the culture being described. The whole movie is in an ancient native language, subtitled in English, and it lends an air of authenticity to the movie that I feel would have been missing otherwise. The acting is superb and the direction is without a doubt Mel Gibson's finest work. All in all a highly recommended movie. ... Read review

Advantages: Matt Damon's performance
Disadvantages: n/a

...list of favourite actors until The Bourne series. It's a cliché I know but Matt Damon was born to play Jason Bourne. I think that no film he's been in before or since has fitted him quite as well. For me, Matt Damon delivers his best performance yet in The Bourne Ultimatum. If you are a fan of the first two Bourne movies, you will not be disappointed by The Bourne Ultimatum. For those who have seen the first two installments this installment fits ... Read review
