for me personally the second one had the potential to be better than the first because it had some awesome scenes, but I know I personally couldn't tell what the heck was going on during most action scenes because of the shoddy camera work shaking around so much.
has anyone here read any of the books?

The more I think about it, the more I think Bourne Ultimatum was the best of the three. And also, Matt Damon movies are starting to become must-sees. He's had quite a run now with The Departed, The Good Shepherd, now Bourne Ultimatum.

my buddy told me it was one of the best movies he's ever seen. I think that might be a bit of an overstatement, but I'm still very excited to see it.

Why isn't Superbad on here? Judd Apatoff? Creator of great movies like the 40 year old Virgin and Knocked Up?

You know Superbad is gonna rake it in.

I read the first one a couple of years ago and I HATED IT!!!
For me, it was like the complete opposite of the movies: it was boring; it seemed pointless; and, again, it was boring. Aside from the basic premise and some of the characters' names it was very different than the movie, which is sometimes okay, but not in this case.

I read all three during a series of plane rides a few years back. A lot different than the movie, but worthwhile.
