NOKW - The Bourne Ultimatum

Here comes the next chapter in our "I'm Okay With, I'm Not Okay With" series (if you don't know what this is, click here for all of the past posts):

Movie:  The Bourne Ultimatum

Basic Plot:  Jason Bourne is back for the third installment in this franchise, this time he goes from Russia to Tangiers and then takes his fight to the good ol' U.S. of A.

I'm Okay With:  The fact that Jason Bourne looks like he gained 15 or 20 pounds in muscle since the last movie even though this movie starts exactly where the last one ended.  The fact that towards the beginning of the movie, the bad government guys thought it would be okay to assassinate someone in a crowed train station and not expect repercussions.  The fact that Jason is able to fend off a trained assassin with a knife by only using his fists and a book.  The fact that Jason is able to stroll into CIA headquarters and make it all the way into the head guy's office and nobody notices even though, and I can't stress this enough, everyone in that office is looking for him.  The fact that Jason is also able to stroll into highly secure CIA training complex.  The fact that the good CIA lady faxes Top Secret documents to the media and she is not instantly fired (then again, I haven't seen the new, so maybe she has, but I'm going to assume she hasn't).

I'm Not Okay With:  The fact that the makers of this movie actually thought that we would believe that Jason Bourne would bang Julia Stiles.  Have you seen her lately?  Yikes.  She peaked as an actress in the movie 10 Things I Hate About You and she didn't even look good then.  So, how could they possibly expect us to believe that Jason "Badass" Bourne would actually hit that?  That dude has killed a bad guy with a rolled up magazine, he could have any chick on the planet.  Seriously, he is the American James Bond and the British spy has racked up quite an impressive resume of tail over the years, so whoever cast this movie should have picked someone a helluva lot more attractive than Julia Stiles.  In fact, whoever cast 10 Things I Hate About You should be ashamed of themselves too, Heath Ledger wouldn't have touched that with a 10 foot pole.  I am not okay with that.

"Come on Jason, you could do way better."
