Great Action/Thriller Flick

Rating: 7/10 (21 September 2014)

The Bourne Identity is an excellent Action/Thriller that keeps you watching even when it slows down in pace. It is similar to Bond movies but with one major difference - it's got a very good plot & story to it.
Matt Damon is perfect in the role of Jason Bourne, and Franka Potente as Marie - his somewhat unfortunate "partner in crime" - is good without ever becoming annoying. This is definitely a movie you need to pay attention to, because in parts the story moves along almost as fast as the action and if you don't keep up then it can be easy to get lost on what's happening. That is in no way a bad thing, though, as it gives you that "want to see what happens next" feeling. The movie does slow down in some parts, but even when that happens the movie's plot-line still ticks along nicely without it ever getting boring.
A movie very much recommended.
