Review of Jason Bourne Full Movie

Review of Jason Bourne Full Movie: Matt Damon returns as Jason Bourne in the fifth entry of the Bourne saga, which still entertains after some years off-screen. Though I still believe the Bourne Ultimatum is the best in the series, the movie still delivers with some action-packed sequences and thought-provoking characters. Directed by Paul Greengrass, who was also at the helm with Bourne Supremacy and Bourne Ultimatum, the movie is able to bring back some of the things that made the original Bourne trilogy so good, in particular, the incredibly awesome action pieces that are sprayed all throughout the film. 

It also showcases Paul's signature use of a shaky-camera, and though unconventional, proves to be useful in many situations. Almost a decade after the end of the Bourne Ultimatum, Bourne (Matt Damon) is still hiding, isolated from the world, where he only joins up in the occasional street-fight. But, his involvement begins when former contact of Bourne, Nicky Parsons (Julia Stiles), hacks into the CIA server in an attempt to expose information. Files concerning the identity of Jason Bourne and how they attempt to take him down brings him out of hiding.

A rehash of the classic trilogy with most of the new characters just being carbon copies of those from the aforementioned trilogy (where the hell is Pamela Landy?) whilst even coming off as kinda lazy. Matt Damon has only 25 lines in the entire thing. Though the silent protagonist thing he's got going on does help represent his state of loneliness. One thing that bothered me, like everyone else, is that they used Matt Damon's audition footage for a live-action One Punch Man movie in the trailer and commercials but in the actual movie, it's shot at a different angle.

Was not amused. The action is not that bad and the shaky cam isn't the nuisance it was in The Hunger Games or even in The Bourne Supremacy. Go easy on the cuts though, Greengrass. Matt Damon as the titular character is always a good thing. But the story, though I know they're trying, about Bourne's post-amnesiac daddy issues in a world set in the aftermath of the Edward Snowden NSA hacks of 2013, just didn't catch my attention as much than in the Ludlum adaptations. Jason Bourne didn't turn out as well as we'd expected but one thing I genuinely believe is that at least it's better than Legacy.

With the return of Matt Damon delivering his magnetism to Bourne and Paul Greengrass handling the action with an expertly gripping hand, this entry in the series is more watchable than the grossly forgettable Jeremy Renner spinoff but the latest film is still not a substantial improvement as it barely brings anything meaningful or new to the fold. Despite the fine cast, its more of the same with a repetitive, unimaginative screenplay that's more predictable than it should be.

There seems to be no soul or purpose this movie. And like other reviews have stated, many of the characters are the same characters that are in previous Bourne movies but with different names. When the director and lead actor were given the premise and script, surely they must have recognized this? I'm sure they did. What the audience is left with is a repartition of what has come before. I'm sure that you could edit this film in seamlessly to any of the first trilogies without anyone noticing. As a Bourne fan, I found myself wanting, even needing to like this movie but just kept seeing another version of a story that has already been told and told a lot better.

Almost 10 years after his last action-packed suspense ride, Jason Bourne returns to our screens again. What complex, mind-bending, political adventure does he go on this time? Well, that therein lies the problem: it's not the complex story we hoped for. Exciting and filled with great action? YES. However, It appears Bourne has lost a few steps during his absence in the franchise.

The film opens up with Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) hiding in Europe punching the crap out of guys stupid enough to think they can take him in order to cope with the pain he endured so long ago. He is found by his friend and franchise vet, Nikki Parsons (Julia Stiles) who says she has discovered a new CIA program similar to Treadstone called Iron Hand. What does this have to do with Bourne? His father was involved apparently. After the CIA tracks, Nikki to Bourne's location, the CIA director (Tommy Lee Jones) sends 'The Asset' (Vincent Cassel) to kill them both. Then, to the surprise of no one, Nikki is killed, but not before she gives Bourne an encrypted hard drive containing all he needs to know about Iron Hand. Now fueled by revenge and a thirst for this revelation about his past, Bourne goes out of hiding to once again uncover the truth.

As lazy as this film is, Jason Bourne isn't a terrible film. Matt Damon gives a great performance as Bourne, even though he has about ten lines in the entire film. He still knows this character and delivers on what's expected of him after all these years. The addition of newcomer, Oscar winner Alicia Vikander, is a welcomed addition to the franchise. She delivers a great performance but her character suffers due to the notion that Bourne will willingly come back to work for the CIA because he has a moral obligation to America. The CIA has been trying to kill him since The Bourne Identity, it's doubtful he'd trust them this far in the game.

The story, as simple as it is, still feels like Bourne, and that's thanks to director Paul Greengrass' direction of the franchise. The action, camera work, and performances remain consistent with his previous Bourne films.

Unfortunately, this film can't save itself from feeling completely unnecessary. You can feel Universal Studios praying that this film reinvigorates the Bourne franchise, and in a way, it does! It's refreshing to see Bourne back on screen, but it's painfully obvious that even Greengrass wasn't keen on coming back. The word is that unlike previous Bourne films, this one actually had a completed script before shooting. If this Bourne film proved anything, its that they were better off doing the former.

With a title like Jason Bourne, you'd think this would be the Bourne film to end all Bourne films, but sadly, it's a very forgetful adventure with great action and a lazy story. If you're a Bourne fan, it's mildly satisfying. For casual moviegoers, Jason Bourne gets tossed aside with the rest of the disappointing blockbusters to come out this summer.

Review of Jason Bourne Full Movie: David is an unfortunate thing. (The casting Farrell, who played Alexander the Great in Oliver Stone is a subtle joke in itself.) The wife has recently left him, and what was sent to the hotel; No one should be alone for long. With it takes a Border collie, a faithful friend, and no wonder, since it is actually his brother that he tried and failed to find a partner for their own. (Most of these failures, according to the manager, choose to be dogs.

"That's why the world is full of dogs," he says.) The pleasure of "La Langouste" most striking to go unnoticed, the matrix passes of flamingo’s tribe’s creatures, a hint of pink in the center of the earth tones of the landscape; and the Irish guests with long blond hair that looks out of the hotel, after staying success as a Shetland pony. Such is the premise behind "La Langouste" He makes you realize only gradually the amount of land that is full. Things start moving when David and other residents, armed with soothing weapons, forced to go hunting. The dam, but solitary creatures: one that people has become corrupt in the woods and sacrifice.

Files concerning the identity of Jason Bourne and how they attempt to take him down brings him out of hiding.

The film boasts a stellar cast, which includes Matt Damon, Alicia Vikander, Tommy Lee Jones, and Vincent Cassel, all who of whom suited their characters well within the story. The story itself wasn't as intriguing as many of other Bourne films, as there were some minor plot-holes, but it didn't concern me that much. Its ability blends a decent plot with amazing action provides a fulfilling experience for the viewer, in particular, those who are fans of the series.

Matt Damon's Flashback saga continues with the straightforward title 'Jason Bourne'.

Being a huge fan of the last four, yes all four, movies I couldn't believe it when I heard this was in the pipeline. Looking back on how the original film single handedly reshaped the Bond franchise, or how spy movies became more mysterious and gritty in the 21st century, all thanks to an agent who couldn't remember his name, I was sure this long anticipated Bourne instalment would take things to a new level faster than Keanu Reeves could fuck with the matrix.

But like most movies you look forward to seeing these days it was a complete let down. What made the previous Bourne movies such superior flicks was their edgy realism, a factor this chapter completely sidestepped. From the very opening and right through this film you can't help but think, 'wow, that was lame, was that meant to be a fight scene, you know he was impressive in Behind the Candelabra - wonder if he's going to return to acting anytime soon'.

The plot is terrible to begin with, it factors in a very topical issue on cyber security compromising personal freedom, but then fails to really do anything with it or make a meaningful statement. It fails to build on a central character, Aaron Kalloor, with any real depth which is probably the biggest let down in the movie. The character Aaron Kalloor could have evolved the espionage element of the entire series by demonstrating the level of intelligence government agencies now have at their disposal, and perhaps make further assertions on how this information is gathered, collated and processed.

Regardless the Aaron Kalloor fiasco was a mere sub plot to the main storyline of Bourne crying over premature orphanism not unlike 'Skyfall's whingefest, which further disheartened the now growing feeling that this Bourne film was nothing more than a late cash in on an epic franchise.

Further tiresome moments included Bourne once again getting help from inside the agency from the lead female character, a ridiculous clichéd ploy to equate youthful femininity with an innate sense of good moral judgement. What's even more aggravating is how polarised everyone in the movie is, there is so little dynamic in the agency after four movies, you're either in complete shit and the only way out of the dog house is by killing Jason Bourne, or your an intern who has access to more Treadstone e-mails than Hillary Clinton and you decide to commit treason by dropping Bourne some breadcrumbs to get him out of harm's way.

Another burnout factor is that you're not likely to survive longer than twenty minutes unless your name is actually Jason Bourne, all characters are dispensable one dimensional drones who look and act like their predecessor, again diluting the realism and significance of the role characters play in the movies, which damages the franchises ability to build a world fans can truly dive into.

Perhaps if you like ridiculously silly car chase scenes that surpass the boundaries of reason, but you're too heartbroken to watch old Paul Walker movies; you might get some guilt free kicks by fast forwarding through most of this movie.

Or if by chance you've never seen a movie where the good guy chases the bad guy down the wrong side of the motorway, narrowly avoiding oncoming traffic at full speed, you might consider this a poor film with average road rage compilations and a bonus Moby track at the end.

?

However if you love the Bourne franchise and want to protect its reputation in a violent pub fight in New York City some night, don't watch a single minute of this movie, or you could get it on DVD with some popcorn and stay out of New York for the rest of your life, but that's a choice you're going to have to make.
