Afternoon movie: The Bourne Ultimatum

From Netflix: The Bourne Ultimatum. Good adventure flick with the good guys winning in the end (again). The bad guys are part of our very own CIA. How can a movie like this even be made in a time of national crisis as we are in now what with the war on terror and all the bad guys out there trying to do very bad things to us if we let our guard down even a little bit? Those Hollywood people obviously have a different idea of the national interest. Matt Damon stars as Jason Bourne (not his real name) who goes through all sorts of fantastic situations to find some sort of resolution in the dark wetness of the East River. That super agent was ably assisted by two very capable women (played by Julia Stiles and Joan Allen) who were at the right place in the nick of time. Gave it a five.
