READ THE BOOK

Rating: Null/10 (18 March 2004)

Bourne Identy is a good movie, I will say that first. I enjoyed it as an action film. But as a story it lacked. What did it lack? Read the book. The book tells the story so well. It really pulls you in. I watched the movie and thought, "wow, this is a cool idea, I bet that the movie left out a lot..." Yeah it did... In fact, in reading the book and comparing it to the movie I felt like I was reading a whole different story based on the same idea. So my suggestion... Watch the movie first and enjoy all the action and excellent filming and acting, then read the book and think "wow...what a story." I would give the movie a 6.7 out of 10
