Welcome Back Jason Bourne

Rating: 9/10 (10 September 2009)

This is simply one of the best spy, action-thriller's of all time. For a 3rd sequel this is probably the only major blockbuster film that has been a huge and critical success in 2007. Thats down to the story line which is simple, its not glamorised, no gadgets, no gloss and its not over the top, and this is why it is such a realistic, breathtaking film without using any c.g.i. Continuing where (I still think Supremacy is slightly the best of the Bourne franchise) the previous film left off, it is a non-stop popcorn action-thrill ride.
It features the best chase sequence without cars this time, which is the tangier rooftop sequence that then leads to the climatic and possibly one of the finest fight sequences in recent memory. A brilliant car-chase in new york, and of-course the superb edge of your seat waterloo train station sequence at the beginning of the film.
Its Simple, Effective, Brilliant, and thats what makes such a classic film. Thanks to the excellent directing talent of Paul Greengrass (United 93 & Bourne Supremacy, that I am a fan of) and obviously Matt Damon who makes sure he has a more meaning and convincing performance as ever, as Jason Bourne compared to the likes James Bond.
This film and the franchise itself will, and should set an example to how action-thriller's should be made.
