"honestly, in this day and age... although still not excellent,

the bourne trilogy set the high mark....(only the first movie,

the second was a rehash, and the third was decent).."

I dunno man, I was bored to tears during the first film (also found it pretty ridiculous and dumb, not at all deep, like some people seem to feel it is), slept through the second one, and though I was perfectly awake during the third, I felt very irritated that I felt I had somehow already seen this film before.

I find it funny so many people said things like, "Flemings Bond is dead" after Casino Royale came out, when in fact CR was the closest any Bond film has ever come to one of Fleming's novels.
