I am no couch potato nor a fanatic in watching English movies. It was sheer insistence from my close friend, that I was constrained to nod on to his concession in calling on Jason Bourne (Is that the proven Identity ?) in his movie Bourne Ultimatum. Thanks to the technological advances that we had booked the tickets online, for a show, that demanded us to be nocturnals. I think I forgot to mention that is was NOT 'TGIF' and was supposed to be the most productive day as acclaimed by experts, 'Wednesday' .
The D- day awaited us with few surprises. I was getting myself readied, while mother nature won't spare us. It was heavily lashing and still we have made up to venture in that havoc. Adding to this, the two wheeler has to be very safely ridden failing which we will be ridden ;-).
It was good that we made up to the venue well in time. We had finished our dinner by then. It looked like people were rushing into the Auditorium to catch the actions. I was reluctantly descending the steps of auditorium to cling onto my seat.
The title of the movie flashed on the silver screens. I was cautiously attentive to grasp the gist of the movie (at least not to its entirety). I was transfixed with the way the cinematography was conceptualized. But though there was something lingering at the back of my mind. I was not able to comprehend some jargons used in the movie. It looked as though others were (pretending) very familiar. So like others, I too dissembled my knowledge and continued watching it. After watching the movie, I presumptuously thought may be I needed to watch more movies to get the nuances right. I strolled around 'Google' to get some more information on the movie. Well, I could then that I have watched a movie that had predecessors which I did not take stock of.
The movie though is not intertwined with previous line-ups, had some continuum carrying forward some jargons and verbiage. This can be brushed aside with the fact that the movie carries its own identity in taking the audience to the bounds of satisfaction, even if they have not witnessed the previous ones. It is a critically acclaimed movie, for a person in finding his identity is almost at the brink of death. Notwithstanding some technical flaws in the movie, of which I could recollect one from Bourne Ultimatum : "The Impala Police car driven by Bourne during the fag end of the movie was shown to perform sudden slides by way of locking the brakes. But the fact is that Impala cars are equipped with ABS.
Bourne fans !!! Don't be misled by the word "Ultimatum" for there might be another sequel on the anvil, as the movie ended as usual with a frill that might subject to propulsion, as with any English movies.
Can it be concluded as a trilogy of Bourne series ?
