It All Ends Here

Rating: 9/10 (21 August 2016)

The final film in the original "Bourne" trilogy packs the last punch that you've been waiting for since "The Bourne Identity". Jason Bourne will finally learn who he truly was before he became Bourne.
Matt Damon, Joan Allen and Julia Stiles all return in fine form as Bourne, Pam Landy and Nicky Parsons respectively. Damon is subdued as well as he makes his way to Washington, D.C. to finally unlock the mystery of his identity. Displaying bad-ass fighting skills, brooding charisma and his endless quest for the truth it belongs to Damon's super spy. Joan Allen' Pam Landy is now a full-fledged good guy, still seeking to help Bourne learn his actual name and handle the rogue assassin in a peaceful manner. Her moxie is prominent as Pam has to contend with the new CIA director, Noah Vosen, and his quest to eliminate Jason Bourne once and for all; she refuses to stand aside and let Vosen kill the only known link to Treadstone (and now Blackbriar). Julia Stiles' Nicky is finally showcased as she joins the globetrotting Bourne on his quest and she proves herself a valuable ally and subsequently a threat to the hush-hush nature of Treadstone, Blackbriar and the CIA.
Playing Noah Vosen is the commanding David Straithairn who brings a quick to action quality that is contrast to the methodical predecessors before him. Vosen's regime is more dedicated to the "shoot first, ask questions later" motto as he and his team work speedily to eliminate anyone who could help Jason Bourne on his mission. This proves to be the downfall of Vosen by the film's end because of Jason Bourne's methodical prowess and Pam Landy's equally stealthy tactics; using her position of being a member of the CIA to get information that Bourne needs and passing it to him.
A thrilling conclusion to the trilogy that begged the question "Who is Jason Bourne?" and giving us the answer in this heart-pounding finale.
