fun, worth renting to watch again

Rating: Null/10 (10 July 2002)

*POSSIBLE SPOILERS*
Having read other comments, the worst departure from the book: no explanation at all for the amnesia, the book had Bourne getting shot in the head. Secondly, changing the villain--the book was quite suspenseful, where the movie is only marginally so.
That said, the movie is excellent entertainment. As others say the car chase scene kicks ***, and the fight scenes IMO are first rate. The pacing works very well. Just enough plot to get the point across. Matt Damon is very believable and Franka Potente comes off well as an aimless drifter, another disappointing departure from the book (for me anyway)
