Ah. Yes. The Bourne Squabble. Excellent.

JediLounger

Watching the intro. You guys are going to lose your minds lol.

Adam Barry

AC at 16!! You can't even turn it down below 18 here in Australia!! And I set mine to about 24 in summer and heat to 22 in winter!

8bitAndy

Spy Game is another spy movie that is worth checking out, imo. I think you both would enjoy it. Plus, it released before the first Bourne movie, so there's no shaky cam.

rycolaa

At the end of the first movie, they closed down Treadstone when they were in the courtroom, and Brian Cox brought up project Blackbriar

Adam Barry

In regards to George asking if they could have really monitored phone calls - they mention that it was a hit on Echelon, which was/is a real system to monitor all satellite communications that ran for decades, and whose existence was confirmed in the leaks from Edward Snowden. Although phone calls and most data usually don't go through satellites, so in that sense it might be a stretch. But if a call went through satellite communications, then they absolutely could have been monitoring it and detected a key word.

For a good, *much* more grounded spy movie based on a book, "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy" with Gary Oldman. Not an action movie. Pet peeve: guns go CLICK when people raise them, and people load shotguns like it's going out of style. On the other hand, I'm bored of movies just using automatic weapons for flavor: "Hey, we need to add something to this scene, let's just put rat-tat-tat here even though it adds nothing to the story."

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy is excellent. Honestly anything with Gary Oldman is tremendous. I also very much enjoyed Slow Horses on Apple, just a bit different type of character for Oldman, but excellent all the same.

Having a warm floor in a cool room is just really, really smart, I wouldn't take it too hard

Did George say he sets his AC at 16? That's like 60 degrees Fahrenheit, which is quite cold. I wonder if that was just because he was fighting the heater or if that's normal for him.

William Burnham

Not Brian Cox but the late, great Albert Finney 😊🙂😊🙂😊

I read the trilogy a long time ago - other than titles, amnesia and character names they don't have much in common. I remember Marie was Canadian! I thought Legacy was a decent action movie (others will disagree), Jason Bourne was just meh for me. Looks good, performances good but something wrong with the structure/script. Can't say more without spoilers.

Some of the few reactions I haven't watched, maybe I need to give them a go at some point but for now I'm glad the series is complete lol

Spacedone

The novels (at least those that have the same titles) have almost no shared DNA with the movies. I read the novels because of these movies and their stories are wildly different and not just because of when they were written. The Bourne movies are like Brad Pitt's 'World War Z', some minor similarities, maybe a character/plot point or two, but basically different stories.

Spacedone

It's up to you of course but I'd recommend watching The Bourne Legacy after this as its storyline dovetails with The Bourne Ultimatum and gives a deeper look into the fallout of events from this movie. And I think there's a lot less shaky-cam.

Lars G

Ultimatum is excellent, I agree with you guys on the NIkki - Bourne relationship. There's so much implied and I appreciated they leave it almost completely unsaid. The 2016 Bourne movie is not good. I was hoping for so much better. The trilogy is really the only thing worth watching in my mind. Ultimatum wraps up the plot, and the 2016 movie was a gratuitous cash grab. Also, the original Bourne trilogy is such a perfect post 9/11 Patriot Act era spy thriller. By the time the 2016 movie was made, they tried too hard to bring in the Snowden revelations and it just felt off tonally from the beginning.

Lars G
>>112832971

The books were written at the close of the Cold War and took place in the aftermath of Vietnam. Remaking that story in the post 9/11 time frame the movies took place in (and were made in) would probably not have worked nearly as well.

Ian Forbes

Totally agree with most comments here. 2016 Jason Bourne just ain’t it. Felt very much like “I bet people would pay omen for this” and at best it’s “Matt Damon wanted to play the character again”. Bourne Legacy has its good points but isn’t nearly as strong as the trilogy. I’d watch the reaction happily but wouldn’t ask for it per se.

samuel Jakob

Really nice that u started to watch the franchieses more or less in a row, u should really do that with ur older ones.

Odd Thomas

Look at you completing a trilogy! (looks at his Die Hard and Planet of the Apes boxsets gathering dust)

Martin Nicholls

Couldn't stop laughing at George's AC anecdote. That's why you have a cut out on your AC for when the heating is on (and door/window sensors are nice too). George personally responsible for 10% of Canada's annual power usage lol. That sort of thing is why I like how accurately and in real time with detailed charts that my house tracks its own power usage - I'd spot something like that very quickly. BTW it's not entirely obvious but the implication of the start of this movie is it happens just after the crash near the end of the second movie, and before he visited the daughter of the first person he assassinated; so most of this movie in wall time takes place during the end of the second movie (in fact the majority of it a couple of days before and a few hours after), which is pretty cool. US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand - lots of transit in between, some third countries and businesses that are controlled by companies in those countries - SS7 has been known completely broken and insecure since the 1990's; they refuse to update it for a reason and voice recognition is utterly trivial, even at scale - and cell phone encryption is intentionally trivially weak to break and again has been for decades. And the internet is 100x worse. Dunno, can/do they do that? Snowden is a decent enough movie with fairly reasonable levels of accuracy if you want an answer - maybe watching Snowden might answer the question and also be a good watch option (it is a really genuinely good movie with plenty of action to keep it fun)? Benefit of it being a true story (though they hate Glenn Greenwald now because they're the state now and they don't like him calling them out). The FBI got torn to shreds at an inquiry in the US the other week for spying on tens of thousands of people without any restrictions or justification for doing it - and that's the FBI, imagine what the CIA and NSA are up to, and all the other intel agencies inside Five Eyes. It's more about storing and trawling communications than accessing it in real time, but that too - those scenes in movies where it takes forever to trace phone calls - nope, not with that GPS chip they put in your phone by legal requirement after 9/11. Also yeah people are hard to die - it takes a lot of gunshots to kill people. That's the funny thing about police shootings - people complaining the person was mag dumped: that's what you have to do to kill a person and dramatically reduce the threat they pose. Most people's understanding of how people die comes from movies and it is wrong. I do and I think a lot of people like the last one of the trilogy the best in the trilogy. I think it helps that it's the newest, a lot and finishes the story. Also NOTHING about the new Terminator movies is retconned. They are *different timelines* and people are dumb. On the question about the other movies, I won't do a review but they're certainly good enough to watch and enjoy, at the minimum - if you like these three odds are you'll like the other two on *at least* that level.

Cinebitches Leave! shirt is cool :)

Nikki's smirk at the end is gold :)

I remember Legacy's plot somewhat, it was ok-ish action movie. Not on the level of first ones. But it didn't retcon anything. The last Jason Bourne movie i don't remember anything other than older Matt Damon :D

Odd Thomas

Albert Finney - the head honcho dude - is great in Big Fish. Tim Burton film with Ewan McGregor; one of Burton's best films imo

Odd Thomas

The Bourne Zoom Meeting (that was the worst one)

Odd Thomas

Legacy is an offshoot; another Treadstone agent. Jason Bourne is a soul-less cash-in that adds nothing to the franchise. Ultimatum tied up everything perfectly. I think Greengrass & Damon made 4 simply because they offered them stupid money.

MasterElodin

Just wanted to say that reactions like these always show me why I am happy to pay the subscription. Even only the pre-movie chaos you get into is super fun so thanks :)

Moni Castaneda

If I may add a title for a Bourne Romantic Novel: "You Got Bourne"

Albert Finney (older guy with the awesome gravel voice) was in Erin Brockovich and was really good in it.

Our Patrons thought we were a myth. Well... They were MYTH taken.

🖤This very well may have been answered but didn't want to scan comments so I'll throw it out just in case it hasn't, but the next one "Bourne Legacy" with Jeremy Renner, he's not playing Jason Bourne. I haven't seen it so couldn't spoil it even if I wanted to but my understanding is he's an entirely different agent doing his own thing and his story was brought into play by the events of these 3 movies. Regular CIA agent, or an agent like Bourne, I don't know. Then after that, they got Matt Damon to do the next one hoping it would revive the franchise because nobody really liked "Bourne Legacy" from what I gather.

If you guys do a romcom I recommendation: love actually, forgetting Sarah Marshall, When Harry Met Sally and 50 first dates not only are they good but smart too

I posted an early version on the youtube channel but it improved and this is just so good I had to share it... “The Bourne Kerfuffle” High school was meant to be a time of teenage angst and fleeting friendships for most, but for Jason Bourne, it became the backdrop for a thrilling and life-altering adventure. At the age of 15, he found himself entangled in a web of mystery and danger that would forever shape his path. It all began when Emily Sullivan, a captivating and intelligent girl with a mysterious past, transferred to Jason’s school. Her arrival stirred curiosity among the students, but Jason felt an immediate connection to her. They soon became close friends, sharing laughs, study sessions, and long conversations. However, their seemingly ordinary high school life took a dangerous turn when Jason stumbled upon a hidden file on the school’s network, hinting at Emily’s involvement with the enigmatic Blackwing Syndicate. Determined to protect her, Jason’s inquisitive nature and natural instincts kicked in. As he delved deeper into the puzzle, Jason discovered that the Syndicate was after a powerful piece of technology hidden within the school. The device, known as the Quantum Algorithm, had the potential to disrupt global systems and grant unparalleled control to whoever possessed it. Emily unwittingly possessed a vital clue to its whereabouts. With the Syndicate’s agents lurking in the shadows, Jason and Emily embarked on a thrilling adventure to unravel the secrets and keep the Quantum Algorithm out of the wrong hands. They delved into the history of the Syndicate, following a trail of cryptic clues and hidden messages left behind by a former agent-turned-whistleblower. Their investigation took them beyond the confines of their high school. They ventured into abandoned warehouses, infiltrated secret meetings, and hacked into secure databases, all while evading the Syndicate’s relentless pursuit. Jason’s agility, resourcefulness, and quick thinking proved indispensable as he outmaneuvered their adversaries. Along the way, Jason and Emily discovered unexpected allies—a tech-savvy hacker named Marcus and a skilled martial artist named Lana. Together, the group formed an unlikely but formidable team, pooling their talents and knowledge to decipher the Syndicate’s elaborate schemes. Their journey was fraught with danger. They found themselves in thrilling chase sequences, navigating treacherous rooftops, and engaging in hand-to-hand combat against highly trained Syndicate operatives. Each encounter pushed Jason and his team to the limits, testing their courage and resolve. As the Syndicate tightened its grip, Jason’s feelings for Emily deepened. Their bond provided solace amidst the chaos, their love acting as a source of strength. It was their unwavering trust in each other that propelled them forward, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. In a climactic showdown, Jason and his allies confronted the Syndicate’s leader in an underground lair. A fierce battle ensued, with bullets flying and fists clashing. Jason’s relentless determination and honed skills allowed him to outmaneuver his opponents and disable the Syndicate’s operations. But tragedy struck when Emily, caught in the crossfire, took a fatal shot meant for Jason. Her sacrifice shattered him, grief and guilt consuming his heart. Determined to honor her memory, Jason intensified his training and swore to bring down the Syndicate once and for all. Using the knowledge gained from their journey, Jason hatched a meticulous plan to expose the Syndicate’s activities to the authorities. With the help of Marcus, Lana, and other allies they had gathered along the way, they meticulously gathered evidence and unearthed the Syndicate’s vast network of corruption. In a dramatic climax, the Syndicate’s leaders were apprehended, and justice prevailed. The Quantum Algorithm was recovered and safely secured, thanks to Jason’s unwavering determination and the sacrifices made along the way. Emily’s death became a turning point for Jason. He channeled his grief into a relentless pursuit of truth and justice. With the Bourne Kerfuffle behind him, Jason Bourne continued his journey, using his unique set of skills and unwavering resolve to protect the innocent and ensure that no one else would suffer the same fate as Emily. And so, the Bourne Kerfuffle became a defining chapter in Jason Bourne’s life, an unforgettable adventure that shaped him into the legendary operative he would later become. Emily’s memory remained etched in his heart, a constant reminder of the price they paid in their fight against darkness. With each mission he undertook, he carried her spirit with him, ensuring that her sacrifice would never be forgotten.

Skip Bourne Legacy. It has nothing to do with the 4 main Bourne films. The director, Paul Greengrass left the franchise after Ultimatum and Matt Damon wasn't going to come back without him, but the studio wanted to keep the Bourne IP alive so they brought in Jeremey Renner to do his own series of films, but then that was scrapped when Legacy flopped and then Greengrass and Damon came back to do "Jason Bourne" (the true 4th film in the series). So if you do continue on with the series, just do Jason Bourne and skip Legacy. Just beware. Jason Bourne was not received nearly as well as the first 3 films and they haven't done another film since.

james repka

People comment really fast! and say everything I wanted to say! So I will make a few stream-of-consciousness recommendations. Doug Lyman directed the first movie, Paul Greengrass introduced the shaky-cam to Bourne in the subsequent versions, and reintroduced Matt Damon to Vincent Cassel (Oceans 12 &13) in Jason Bourne. Lyman has had a lot of interesting films in his career. Before the Bourne Identity he directed Swingers (Vince Vaughn & John Favreau), the delightful Go (Sarah Polley, Taye Diggs, Timothy Olyphant, Katie Holmes), and Edge of Tomorrow (with Katie Holmes' ex, you may have heard of him). Never been a huge fan of TC, but I did enjoy Edge of Tomorrow (which of course, you've watched). You've also watched my 2nd favorite version of him as Les Grossman AKA Harvey Weinstein in Tropic Thunder. I bet you've not watch my absolute favorite version of TC, as Frank TJ Mackie in PT Anderson's brilliant Magnolia. That would take me down a PT Anderson slope but I will stop here...

I kinda wish they cut to black after that smile without seeing Bourne swim away. The smile is enough to know

Steve Mercier

I would end here, at least so far as Jason Bourne is concerned...this is a spectacular movie, and a great finale to the trilogy. The entire Morocco action sequence is just one of the greats. The Bourne Legacy is...it's not bad...it's not horrible...it's ok...Jeremy Renner and Rachel Weisz make it palatable...but Jason Bourne (the 5th movie)....no...just all kinds of no...

Yeah Legacy was not great. I personally enjoyed Jason Bourne as a film. Alicia Vikander was a great edition.

FranciscoGios

Wow!! Simone’s and Julia Stiles’s(Nicky) hair looked almost similar on this movie. And according to the director Nicky’s & Bourne’s relationship was deliberately filmed as “ambiguous but significant”. George good spy movies to watch are Tinker Tailor Soldier(2011) & The Good Shepherd(2006) & both movies have great casting. 🫷🤜👊👊👊 it’s Jason Bourne!!

Juley

Joey Ansah (the asset chasing them in Tangier) actually did that cool flip when Jason bent his wrist back. No stunt double! He was an exceptional martial artist when they cast him. Actually, Ansah and Damon were both injured filming that fight scene.

TokyoLopez

i actually like the bourne legacy

Gary Fixler

Guy: Where to? Pam: 415 East 71st Street. Guy: 415 71? Jesus, Pam. Simone: What's that? Me: That's Wrigley Field.

Would love to finish the Apes trilogy, Much as the Bourne films get ya the clicks you need...

warcrimes

Bourne Legacy is one of my favorites in the series. Renner makes a great operator. Hope you guys watch it.

Jacob King

Great reaction. Important to remember the context of the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars, hence the Americans freaking out and killing bystanders and journalists and getting into firefights with their own cops and having no idea generally about what’s going on. That paranoia that anyone not with us must be an enemy who is planning on destroying us was US government policy at the time. David Webb as the idealistic volunteer who thinks he’s going to save Americans only to be transformed into a killer operating on the whims of corrupt old men was a strong statement in 2007. The Bourne Identity is a weird relic of the period post 9/11 when they were releasing films made pre 9/11 so it’s cynicism about the CIA has a different flavour. I do find the ending a bit soft with the media and the senate sorting everything out. This is before Snowden, Manning and Winner showed how the intelligence community actually treats whistleblowers but I guess having Landy get black bagged and sent to prison would have been a bummer and I do like Nicky’s smile. Three Days of the Condor (1975) is one of the all time great paranoid spy thrillers and they handle the same ending much better.

guyincognito

I think the Jeremy Renner Bourne movie is worth watching if you can separate it from these three movies. It is good, just not as good. I do not remember the final movie at all, though I know I watched it so not a good sign. As for classic spy movie suggestions, Three Days of the Condor, North by Northwest, Charade, and The Paralax View are all great. A more recent movie I would love to see Ben Affleck movie Argo.

Joanthan Skidmore

HIs birthday is the 13th September, same as mine, I think I remember it's the same as someone else. :) You're mission, should you accept it, is to find out who?

Raymond DeGraw

You should watch R.E.D. & R.E.D. 2... I think you would like them.

The Maestro

I saw Bourne Legacy in the cinema when it came out I remember it being alright

Michael Green

Bourne Legacy is definitely worth a watch sometime-- there's some uneven pacing, but it's really solid fun, has some classic Tony Gilroy procedural tension, good performances, and mercifully the camera doesn't jitter around.

Truth

Great trilogy but we need to also get some more mission impossible reactions. You are missing out on a superb franchise.

KnittingHaven

As others have said, the movies don't follow the books at all except for names and the amnesia thing. I mean, the first movie up until he meets Marie is similar to the first book, but nothing really after that, and Marie is completely different in the books, a Canadian :). I didn't like Bourne Legacy when it came out, but I think that was mostly from getting Jeremy Renner when I was expecting Matt Damon. I saw the 2016 Bourne movie, but have absolutely no memory of it, so I guess it wasn't that good? Have to second the recommendations for R.E.D. and R.E.D.2 movies as good spy movies, so many great actors, and just really good, enjoyable movies! And they really don't have a lot of people reacting to them on Youtube, which surprises me.

Nathan Willett

I remember watching the Bourne legacy in the theater and not liking it. But to each their own. 🙂

Brad Lowry

George you asked us to comment our responses to the question, "In action movies what is a cliche that you always notice and dislike?" That makes me wonder if you've heard of the Action Movie corollary to "Jump the Shark"?... it's called "Nuke the Fridge". It refers to (I think) one of the later Raiders or the Lost Ark movies where to save the heroes from the a rogue nuclear device, said device was closed inside a refrigerator and that saved everyone from being blown up – hence, "Nuke the Fridge" is when an action movie absolutely defies physics. (It's Google-able.) It could be a good poll for CineCringe!

Habman

George, don't mock the people who are paying your bills.

While it is from an Indiana Jones movie, it's not specifically for Action Movies, and that is not what happens. lol
