Almost perfect. The Bourne movies are how action movies should be made. No overblown special effects, no truly unbelievable stunts, just down to earth gritty, intense action. Far better than the Lethal Weapon, Die Hard, James Bond and other action franchises. The actors were great in their roles, the music score played perfectly with the movie, and the story was very good.

Now on to the reasons why I didn't give it 5 Stars. The first reason goes back to The Bourne Supremacy when they killed off Marie. I read all three of the books right after I saw the Bourne Identity, and the Bourne Ultimatum deviates a lot from the book, and didn't mind that much except the killing of Marie. Then they try to add Julie Stiles character to replace Marie, It didn't work for me. The final thing was the ending, it was climatic, but didn't end the way I wanted it to and was a little bit of the let down. Now I don't want anyone to think I didn't like the movie, I did. I loved it, the story was still great, so were the actors, the action sequences are still better than any other action movie out there. I will even see it again, I just couldn't give it 5 stars for the reasons above.
