A Gripping Action Flick

Rating: Null/10 (11 January 2006)

THE BOURNE IDENTITY (2002) **** Featuring brilliant hand-on-hand combat and fast-paced action which are orchestrated with a supporting script, 'The Bourne Identity' is well-worth watching. When secret CIA agent Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) turns amnesiac after a failed mission where he is subsequently left critically wounded in the Mediterranian Sea, his superiors see him as a threat to their nondisclosure and try to eliminate him permanently. Bourne rebuilds his memory on the clues associated to his integrated miniature laser device, multiplet passports, and striking contending ability. Damon is top-notch as he makes his first turn to a gripping action flick. Franka Potente caps the film as the aider to the distraught Damon. Rent this one: you won't be disappointed.
