Thoughts on the Bourne series or Patriot Games and Clear and Present Danger?

I liked The Bourne Identity, but I thought that the 2nd and 3rd movies just rehashed it. They also got increasingly ridiculous (as if you could blow up an apartment by running the gas and putting a magazine in the toaster).

Its weird as the James Bond films have done that for years - yet they keep finding ways to reinvent the concept. Bourne got stale after the first movie, I thought - though I enjoyed all of them.

Clear and Present Danger I liked, Patriot Games was incredibly shite.

Good feedback on the Bourne series and I agree.

I am surprised though, that you liked the Harrison Ford sequel better than the original. I thought they were both good. Although the plot of Patriot Games was a long stretch....So, I can see the preference.

I didn't much care for Harrison Ford in those movies - for me it was more that the story of Clear and Present Danger was better than Patriot Games and it had a more realistic world view (though it was already dated then - as Tom Clancy thought the South American drug cartels would be the next big world problem post cold war, rather than the Middle East.

The IRA stuff in Patriot Games was terrible, though The Devil's Own was worse. Ford was in that too.

I hated the Quantum of Solace. Nothing but action shots and no real plot.

Yeah it wasn't nearly as good as Casino Royale. The only thing that held it up was Daniel Craig's performance.

Supposedly the writers were rushed to finish it because of the screenwriters strike in '07.

Top Gun, that excuse for a movie still irks me :), but only because I paid good money to see it, and was so bored I walked out about half way through.

maybe you like movies such as w/ Henry Fonda, yes? or john wayne?

Baptise and repent!
