The Jason Bourne films are, in my opinion, amongst the best films ever made. Certainly in terms of action thrillers, there is nothing to compare them with. Where the Matrix tried to be too clever and lost its universal appeal, and Bond has never been clever enough, Bourne’s adventures can be enjoyed on all sorts of levels. If you want spectacularly put together chases and combat, which whilst outrageous at times never stray to the cartoon-style lengths that characterise, for instance, Die Hard, then they are here. If you want a character who is at once superhuman and yet totally human, you have Matt Damon in superb form as Jason Bourne. If you want an excellent supporting cast, then simply look down the list and the names are all there. If you want lovely photography, set across Europe’s capital cities, then you won’t be disappointed. And if you want a moral story, then there are messages in these movies which are subtle, and messages which are stark.
And the plots (of each film and the trilogy as a whole) rattle along at an impressive pace, and are complex enough to keep you going, but not so complex as to ever lose interest.
As you can tell, I am a fan!
The DVDs contain some really satisfying extras, too – interviews in those usual ‘making of documentary’ format, commentaries from the directors, plus some extra documentaries following the filming of some of the particularly iconic sequences, such as the chase across the rooftops of Tangiers in the Bourne Ultimatum.
This trilogy is a must have.

It’s worth noting that the difference between this box set and the other ones you can get is that this one comes in a nice little tin. I much prefer it to the normal ‘Three DVDs in a little box with an open side’, but only really for ‘coolness value’. And now to the films…

An absolutely ripping yarn from start to finish. Are they 1, 2 and 3 in the rankings of the action/adventure genre, or are they so exceptional they define their own category? Genuinely intelligent films, the Bourne movies make a ludicrous and infeasibly convoluted plot disturbingly convincing and utterly compelling. Criticism is possible, but frankly not worth the effort: well done to everyone involved.
If you don’t enjoy these films, you must be a very unusual sort of individual.

The Ultimate Bourne Collection is absolutely brilliant- I brought this as gift for my sister,who had requested the collection for her birthday.
We had already seen the first two films in the trilogy i.e The Bourne Identity and The Bourne Supremacy, but wanted to see the last film in the series to see how the story was going to develop and to see whether it was going to be as exciting as the other two films. It was as expected brilliant. There is lots of drama, and nail biting moments, where you are sitting on the edge of your seat waiting to see how the lead character played by Matt Damon gets away,when everyone is after him and when he’s in the position where he does not know who he can trust. Although it sounds like a man’s film women will love it too, we have. I tried to buy the trilogy in the shops but was unable to do so. Amazon came to my rescue by not only having the trilogy in stock,but by also being able to dispatch to me quickly . Thanks Amazon

These films really make the most out of Blu-Ray technology! Even if you’ve seen these films on DVD (my case) I’d suggest getting them in Blu-Ray!
When I read other reviews and saw all of the good feed-back I didn’t understand why people where saying that it was a great film to show off the Blu-Ray quality – it isn’t exactly full of special effects and huge explosions…HOWEVER I soon understood why…these are what I found most impressive about the Blu-Ray version.
1) Filmed from extraordinarily well placed angles making it seem like you’re in the room watching two people fight!
2) Sound effects from HD DTS 5.1, making a mini-cooper sound like a over-powered Lamborghini
3) Amazing detailed distant shots of cities so clear, you can see people walking on the streets
4) Fast paced scenes are no longer too fast; you can see every injury, every small object or knife used, every bullet hole…you know what’s happening!
…AND MUCH MORE!
But even forgetting the new format, these films are not to be missed. Lots of action films are too exaggerated and often the hero gets out of a situation by “lucky means” or just unbelievable ones. Watching Jason Bourne really gets you to believe that it IS POSSIBLE to do most of the things he does, it’s pure skill and determination. He’s one step ahead of his enemies and two steps away from you guessing what he’ll do next!
10/10 – BEST ACTION TRILOGY EVER

The Ultimate Bourne Collection is = to The Bourne Trilogy (U.S.).
This set is region-free, so it plays on U.S. players. Extra content is 480i (not PAL) so that plays, too. BD-Live and U Control work, too. Actual blu-ray cases are thicker gauge than U.S. cases.
The Bourne series are great fast-paced action thrillers. Based on Robert Ludlum novels. A must own for any Bond fan.

Excellent item. As stated, the item is region free and works on all three of my US blu-ray players and my PS3.
