Matt Dillon from Ocean's Eleven, 12 and 13; also, the same MD from Good Will Hunting. One of the most marvelous acting performances ever.

Methinks that would be Matt Damon, not Matt Dillon. You feeling all right?

My brain said Matt Damon but my fingers typed Matt Dillon. NOT!!! Sorry for the outrageous error. One thing's for sure - the Bourne movies were fantastic.

Matt Daaaaamoooooon
Okay, that was mandatory! I'm sorry. Please don't kill me and eat me! I don't think I could bear being killed and eaten again...
Also (no, the bad habit of starting new sentences and paragraphs with that word has not subsided yet!) I'd like to state, for the record, that my favorite Matt Damon-film would have to be Saving Private Ryan.

My favorite Matt Damon movie is The Departed. The movie otherwise known as "Headshot" ...

I saw the film today. Easily the best film of 2007 and of the Bourne Trillogy. I couldn't fault it on the basis of performance, direction, story or soundtrack. Everything worked fantastically and the pace was perfect. I walked out of the cinema feeling that the saga had ben resolved. The Bourne Trillogy ended on a perfect note, no need to go further.
5 out of 5
I only have 1 question though. When the ending to The Bourne Supremacy is shown, is this suggesting that the film is taking place during the course of the second film? I come to this conclusion because they trace the call just after it finishes. This takes place after most of the events in the film have taken place.
Here's the best way I can illustrate it:
1. Bourne Supremacy: Ending in New York
2. Bourne Ultimatum: Continues from when he is wounded in Russia
3. Bourne Ultimatum: London
4. Bourne Ultimatum: Tangier
5. Bourne Ultimatum: New York (supremacy ending)
6. Conclusion to series continuing from New York scene.
See what I mean? It's almost like all of the events of the Bourne Ultimatum have somehow occured during Supremacy. My only conclusion to this is that the ending to the Bourne Supremacy quicky fast forwarded to give the audience a taste of what was to come...

You are partially correct, Malloy. The Ultimatum starts with Bourne escaping Russia after he visits the Neski girl. It then picks up and continues through the Supremacy UNTIL Landy gives him his birthdate - 4/15/71. Then and only then does Ultimatum begin. So, I surmise they were showing us flashbacks until we had enough info to move ahead to the trilogy's conclusion.
BTW, Ultimatum was nothing short of fantastic. We see Bourne's skills at their maximum level of efficiency as he battles to bring it all to an end. Hopefully, not the end of the end. Personally, I would LOVE to see another Bourne movie.

I'll take some cheese. Ah yes. I like cheese.
Hey Jim, that was Joel not me! I swear! There is noway I can claim to know that much about the Bourne series. I've only seen the first one, and second one, (And don't remember the second one that well.) although I do plan on watching them both.

Ahem, it was me

lol. I do agree on the film being fantastic, like I said, the best of 2007. Though i'm not sure there's enough steam for a fourth. I really loved the closure in this film. That's not to say I wouldn't see Bourne 4 should it be a reality.
Joel, you need an avatar.

Agreed. I'll get to work on that.

Sorry Jim, I have to disagree....
(HERE BE SPOILERS!!!!!)
(RIGHT HERE)
(YEAH)
4/15/71 is not his date of birth, they are replaying the conversation because this way people listening to the call can't find out what they are talking about (the location of the training facility). Also, when Landy tells him the first time his name (David Webber), she's at her office, which is in Langley, VI, not NY

You did what I did not want to do, SL. When I saw Ultimatum and realized the significance of 4/15/71 I was blown away. But I didn't want to reveal that in my post. BTW, I am not upset that somebody did; I just didn't want it to be me. You know, why take the blame when you can pass it on to someone else? j/k
