the best of American money with the best of European production

Rating: 9/10 (11 October 2004)

Having read the books 15 years ago as a teenager I love the adaptation of the Bourne stories onto the big screen.
Matt Damon is strong, silent and deadly as you'd expect Jason Bourne to be. The films have the pace and grimness of the books down perfectly.
The amazing car chases in naff 'Trabants', patching yourself up with vodka whilst ramming the chasing police cars. Classic.
Its a pity it wasn't a mini he was driving this time as well.
Just one more book to go 'The Bourne Ultimatum'. I can't wait.
