For those of you who can't believe the Bourne trilogy could get any better, witness in awe. Matt Damon, who solidified himself as one of the greatest and most unlikely action heroes in film history, brings Bourne full circle in Ultimatum. There is not a moment wasted as Bourne scours the planet to find out who he really is and how he got that way. Whether it's a rooftop chase in Morocco, which culminates in the best hand-to-hand combat scenes of the trilogy, or bouncing a cop car around the streets of Manhattan, this never lets up. It's also incredibly smart and ties all three films together perfectly, making this the greatest trilogy of all time. The extras, including a commentary by director Paul Greengrass and a bunch of behind-the-scenes featurettes detailing most of the action, left us demanding a fourth Bourne film, because there's still a lot of life in this scrappy, perfectly trained killing machine.
