Ultimate Bourne

So I finally saw Bourne Ultimatum last night. This has really been the most awaited movie, since it released ages ago in the states and took like 6 weeks to get here which is something one is not used to anymore since the worldwide premiere thingy started e.g. Spidey 3, Casino Royale etc. All in All, it bes quite a nice film, wraps up all the ends neatly enough. Personally, I think Matt Damon [though a hottie!!] looks too young to play Jason Bourne - I think in the books, he was slightly older. Also, I think in the second book, he gets married and has kids, and what happened to the Carlos character? As Gamous put it, in this film, there was google, and the European union [since he moves from country to country with no issue], in the book, there was no cell phones!! I don't understand what Julia Stiles was doing in the movie tho...the movie did not need a romantic interest - it's gripping enough with the story line and the constant action. [ My recommendation - don't watch it in the Dome - I saw it in a large enough theatre and still felt nauseous!!]
Next film on my agenda, is Loins of Punjab which is supposed to be hysterically funny. But let's face it, the film I'm really looking forward to is 'Om Shanti Om'.....'Main Hoon Na' ranks as one of my nice films and this one looks kitschy as well - I mean there is a song 'Dard-e-Disco'!! Analysis of which has landed us at the conclusion that the song means there is a disco of pain in his heart - go figure!!
