Here’s what our talented youth reviewers are saying about recent movies… |
| The Bourne Ultimatum |
This exciting action movie featured the main character, Jason Bourne, fleeing and running from his enemies. It is rated PG-13 and targeted to mainly male teens and adults. Surprisingly, it did not have tobacco content and received a pink lung. The use of tobacco in films can sway young minds into thinking the lies that tobacco is “cool” or “not a big deal”. I was glad to see that this movie did not have any of those wrongful images and stayed tobacco free. This movie makes a good example for action movies and all Hollywood films in general. This is the way movies should be, tobacco free. Often times, in movies, the “good guy” or “bad guy” uses tobacco in an action to “help distinguish the characters”. This tobacco use needs to stop. This movie shows that you can see that someone is good or bad without needing tobacco. The Bourne Ultimatum shows that you can have great action film, without using tobacco.
"Its easy for Jason Bourne, in The Bourne Ultimatum, to jump from building to building, drive in high speed chases and fool the bad guy when he doesn’t have the negative affects of tobacco slowing him down.”

“I can’t stand smoking. Sometimes I get asked to smoke for film roles. It’s difficult to refuse, but I wish I could.”
