Bourne like movies - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

**Rithlilky** · 04-27-2008, 04:27 AM

I recently bought and watched the Bourne trilogy on DVD, and even though I had seen all of them in cinema I realized again how cool these movies are.

Are there any other movies in this "style"? I think the new James Bond also was a movie like them. I'd like to see more.

I dont know how to describe this certain style but people who know and like the Bourne movies know what I mean. No big explosions and one guy defeating armies. Just down to earth gritty fighting and spying.

I thought the first Transporter was ok

em....

Apart from the fightscenes & special effects (not enough of them btw) i thought #3 wasn't THAT good
#1 ftw!

The mission impossible series is pretty cool. Sneakers and swordfish are really good too.

Ronin
The Jackal
The Departed

Just a few off the top of my head.

Shooter

**KkJvrG4d** · 04-27-2008, 07:12 AM

Shooter

+1. I love this movie.

**Srewxardsasv** · 04-27-2008, 07:21 AM

Leon the Professional

**adactthrd** · 04-27-2008, 07:21 AM

Ronin

An absolute classic and a must see! De Niro, Reno and Pierce are superb[thumbup]

**Rithlilky** · 04-27-2008, 07:23 AM

Shooter

Ronin

Ronin is awesome. Havent seen the Shooter yet, since it features Mark Wahlberg. I'm going to rent it though, as I kinda like Sniper movies.

Edit: By the way, another cool thing about the Bourne movies is that song that plays during the end credits in each film. Whats its name?

**Pinkman** · 04-27-2008, 08:49 AM

Leon the Professional

One of the best films ever made

It's not like the Bourne films though imo... even if it is about a hitman

**diundasmink** · 04-27-2008, 01:02 PM

another vote for Sneakers

Can ANYTHING starring Richard Chamberlain be good? [rofl]

The Quatermain movies were kinda funny, but that guy really is a sleeping pill.

**WaysletlyLene** · 04-28-2008, 01:16 AM

i finally got round to watching parts 2 and 3 of the bourne trilogy last week (ultimatum on hd-dvd looked amazing)
really enjoyed them.
i started watching supremacy after watching identity about 3 months ago, and i was thinking no way is this gonna be as good as identity.
think i got to around halfway thru and then i realised it was brilliant also, same for ultimatum.
im really not sure which i would say is the best

Mission: Impossible

The Bourne Films are so cool! The Bourne Films were the first films that I watched on HD-DVD.[thumbup]
