The Bourne Identity

Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Brian Cox, Chris Cooper, Clive Owen, Franka Potente

The spy thriller opens as an amnesiac is rescued at sea by the crew of an Italian fishing boat. Nearly dead, he carries nothing but the bullets in his back and the bank account number embedded in his ...( read more  read more... )hip. Although completely without identity or background, he possesses an array of extraordinary talents in fighting, linguistics and self-defense that speaks of a dangerous past. In the present he is disoriented and wary as he is propelled into an urgent search to discover who he is and why his life has taken a perilous turn. A Zurich safe deposit box yields an assortment of passports, a hefty load of cash, an automatic weapon and a name--Jason Bourne--with a Paris address. What it means remains a mystery, but Bourne quickly realizes that although he knows no one, there are people who recognize him--and do not wish him well. When he meets Marie Kreutz, a hard-luck German-born wanderer, he makes a desperate pitch--$10,000 for a ride to Paris. Despite her reservations, Marie takes the cash and begins a journey with Bourne that changes her life forever. The trail of Jason Bourne's past snakes from Europe to CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia, where Treadstone, a clandestine operation is based. As Bourne and Marie struggle to stay below the radar in France, all of the stealthy muscle of Treadstone is focused on tracking them and neutralizing Bourne as quickly and efficiently as possible.

    An unconventional spy movie that relies more on thrills, characters, & story. than on gadgets & over-the-top villians.

    The Bourne Identity spawned a whole wave of super-realistic, gritty action movies, and the last few years of cinema have benefitted greatly from following in its footsteps. Even the lofty 007 franchise had to make a few changes to better fit into the successful mold that the firs...( read more)t Bourne movie created.

    Matt Damon will always be Jason Bourne to me, this is the role that he was born to play. He makes the entire movie work, from Jason's desperation to find out who he really is, to the brutal fight scenes. The Bourne Identity is thrilling and captivating to a degree that few other movies have reached.
