At the Movies: 'Bourne Ultimatum' is best of the threequels

By CHRISTY LEMIRE
AP Movie Critic

All along, they've been calling this the summer of threes — you know how “they” can be, putting things into tidy little boxes. And they focused mainly on the ballyhooed blockbusters that came out at the beginning of the summer: third installments in the “Spider-Man,” “Shrek” and “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchises.

But now as we're creeping into August, traditionally a dumping-ground time at the movies, we have easily the best threequel of all.

Director: Paul Greengrass

Cast: Matt Damon, Julia Stiles, David Strathairn, Scott Glenn, Paddy Considine, Edgar Ramirez, Albert Finney, Joan Allen
