Customer Reviews

Nothing fancy just the movies
The box set is nothing fancy, 3 Bourne movies with few bonus material on each disk. I like it since I love the movies. If you are looking for hours of extra content, packaged in a beautiful looking folded up box set, also containing posters or picture arts, this is not it.

Excellent Triolgy - The Set Makes The Story Even Better!
While I never read the books I really enjoyed each of the Bourne movies. The story is intriguing and the action exciting. Not a mindless "shoot-em-up" flick, the storyline will keep you engaged.

The DVD set has the movies, of course, but I really enjoy the extras on each DVD. The technical aspects, such as how some of the scenes were done, is fascinating. But also the rationale behind some of the choices made by the director, etc. is interesting.

Watching each film in sequence, and not separated by years waiting for the next "installment", I caught a number of subtle elements I had previously missed. Things like that make it even more enjoyable. I'm now more impressed with the story (screenplay) itself.

Because of the intensity of the storyline, it's great to watch as you run on a treadmill! Motivating - as you connect with the character. I find myself running longer since I'm don't want to stop in the middle of a chase scene or a fight scene. To me, that's a plus.

But, hey, it's also fun for "sit-on-the-couch-and-forget-about-your-day" situations. Another plus.

Buy the set and enjoy how the movie links to the book. Like I mentioned, I hadn't read them but the DVD helps point out the choices made. In fact, I'm likely to read the books now and compare - since Amazon has them as well (at great prices).

And that's what makes it a positive experience - value. The Amazon price is tough to beat!

And I received mine before the promise date - another plus for Amazon.

First Rate Entertainment...
"The Bourne Trilogy" captures each of the three Jason Bourne action thrillers in one package full of first rate action entertainment. Loosely based on three novels by Robert Ludlum, this trilogy focuses on amnesiac CIA assassin Jason Bourne, on the run from mysterious enemies and looking for the key to his missing past. Matt Damon is absolutely superb in what has become an intensely physical but emotionally understated signature role as Jason Bourne.

"The Bourne Identity" introduces Jason Bourne as a wounded man found floating in the Mediterranean. Rescued by a fishing boat, the amnesiac young man is sent on to a bank in Zurich, based on an account number found implanted in a capsule under his skin. Along the way to Zurich, Bourne discovers he has lethal fighting skills, which become essential to his survival when his appearance at the bank triggers a manhunt by the CIA. Bourne will have to run for his life, accompanied by an attractive German drifter played by Franka Potente.

In "The Bourne Supremacy", Jason Bourne is hiding in India with his girlfriend from the first movie. He struggles with unclear memories of his life as an assassin. When Bourne is framed for a murder in Berlin, the CIA and a mysterious Russian oil magnate take up lethal pursuit. Bourne must return to Europe for a fateful confrontation with his pursuers and with his past.

"The Bourne Ultimatum" picks up Jason Bourne where the last movie left him, wounded, on the run in Russia, and suffering flashbacks of his indoctrination as an assassin. A journalist provides a clue to the program that created him and Bourne will race the CIA to his starting point in New York, hounded by fellow CIA assassins.

Joan Allen has a recurring role as a sympathetic CIA official who is a sometime ally in Bourne's quest for his identity. Julia Styles also has a recurring role as a CIA logistician who figured in Bourne's original assignment. Top notch casts fill out each of the three stories. The movies themselves were filmed in a jagged, sometimes grainy, and always fast-moving cinematic style, full of stunts and carried by Jason Bourne's uncanny instincts for coping with any situation. If the respective plots have a few logic holes, the action moves fast enough through a series of exotic locations to more than distract the viewer.

"The Bourne Trilogy" is very highly recommended as first rate entertainment for modern fans of the spy genre.
