Una gita scolastica is more than a movie, or less, depending on point of view. It's something you cannot touch, you cannot see, you can just try to explain with feelings. Someone could say that it's too slow (not in my opinion) and actually is not an action movie, so be prepared. It's a piece of poetry: if you can understand the lyrics, feel the same author's feelings, you will fully enjoy the poetry. If not, the poetry will mean nothing to you. So, if you think you could like themes like childhood, teenage love, old kind of school, memories, death, this movie/poetry could enter your soul and never leave it. Honestly is quite disappointing this movie, with a lot of awards won, is still without a flier on IMDb, like a bad b movie

Well, first of all I like spy stories. So, I like the Bourne trilogy. Now, with this in mind, it's impossible for me to choose which is the best but for sure *not* this. A lot of things are cut and copied from the second, and overall in this one Bourne do things literally impossible (ok, it's a spy story, but not a comic!). Another thing I can't accept is that, like the second (same director Greengrass) the camera is unstable to show critic moments: at the end you feel like if you've played Doom for too much time with your eyes going up and down. Great directors can give the same without using this poor trick. So, this is (now) 126 in the IMDb Top 250, near Yojimbo, Per qualche dollaro in più and The sixth sense. If you like action movies with no brain watch this trilogy, if you like *great* movies stay away.
