One of the most intense moments lies in a beautifully shot staircase shootouts scene. The fiercest moments show Jason Bourne engaging in brutal martial arts combat against the baddies, complete with stunning choreography and camera-work that, while a bit shaky, successfully express the intensity of the scenes. The plot moves through the title character's search of his identity and the conspiracy that surrounds, and what ensues is a nice array of tension and unpredictable scenes.
In an age where many films of the action genre struggle to find a solid balance of both action and coherent plot development, this one manages to stand out.
From the hyper-kinetic action sequences, to it's slick editing, to the highly compelling plot, to the overall likability of the lead character this film stops at almost nothing to deliver the strong, visceral experience viewers come to root for. Not very many action flicks offer a spectacular mix of tense action and mystery like this action thriller. Bourne must escape from the vicious criminals while searching for answers to what they want him for.
He is soon assisted by German woman Marie (played by Franka Potente) to search for his identity but soon find himself by hunted down by ruthless assassins by Black Ops agent Alexander Conklin (played by Chris Cooper). Suffering from amnesia and covered in bullet wounds, he travels to Switzerland where he uses his old bank account to put together the puzzle pieces of his identity. Damon plays the title character Jason Bourne, a CIA agent who wakes up on a boy after being rescued by a group of fisherman.
In this spy action thrilled directed by Doug Liman, Matt Damon steps into what is arguably his most charismatic role aside from his Oscar-nominated performance in 'Good Will Hunting'. But with a powerful portrayal by Damon, he feels more like an original character, a spy agent with a highly trained set of fighting skills in both gun and hand-to- hand combat. Matt Damon as Jason Bourne is what some describe as just a modern day James Bond. In 1962, Hollywood introduced British spy James Bond who made an iconic name in the action genre, and the legacy of this household action hero continues today through the longest running film franchise In the 1980s, we were introduced to Bruce Willis' John McClane, a New York cop who served justice as he took a dozen of German terrorists at the Nakatomi Plaza one by one, and his astonishing charisma has lead to a spawn of a few sequels.
