the MISSION IMPOSSIBLE trilogy or the BOURNE trilogy - which trilogy do you prefer?

[lucv13]

At one time I would've picked Mission Impossible but Bourne has grown on me over the years

[Iron-Blu-123]

Bourne Trilogy

[Blu-Jawa]

MI is Better IMO.

[AKORIS]

It's close but I liked Mission Impossible 1 and 3 a lot and was very disappointed with MI2--

Bourne series-- loved the first one, wasn't very impressed with the next 2...

Mission wins by a hair...

[STARSCREAM]

Hmmm, this is a tough one!!!

[Chordata]

I gotta say I'm surprised that it's a dead heat (6 to 6).

To me there's just no question: Bourne is good, MI is not.

I did like the MI series a lot at one time, though. That was before I saw Bourne, though.

[Foggy]

I never really got in to Bourne, so I went with M:I though the 2nd one is bad.

[Elvis]

Bourne. The only good MI is the first one.

[STARSCREAM]

Went with Bourne series.

[Adam.C]

I love both, but I got to go with Bourne because of his bad ass hand to hand combat

[Frozenpinky]

The star of MI2 is Cruise's hair... It's just a fun "John Woo" movie.

But I must say, MI3 was insanely awesome.

So there's an unbalance to the MI series, where as all three BOURNE's are very good, so both series' level out for me

[Batman1980]

Mission Impossibles have the prettier women and more ridiculous stunts but Bournes are the better films, for sure.

[Ferris]

I've gotta go with Bourne. The M-i movies were pretty cool when I first saw them, but I was blown away by the Bourne films, and I can still re-watch them...

[Johnny Vinyl]

Stunts and/or theatrics aside....Damon is a much better actor than Cruise and his character portrayals are much more believeable.

Bourne by a long shot.

I love all three Bourne films, while I only like the first Mission.

The "Bourne" series probably has the better, more realistic stories with greater character depth. "MI" has the greater entertainment value with its action scenes (and I honestly thought that MI:II has a decent love story while MI:III has the best characterizations). I voted on the latter ("Bourne" never really thrilled me, and I don't like its style).

But parts II and III were nothing like the show that it was based on.....

Never saw the show, so I didn't really notice. Ignorance is bliss.

Even though I liked the Mission Impossible movies, I'd have to go with Bourne easily. That is one of my favorite trilogies of all time.
