Synopsis:A man who may or may not be Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) is found floating in the Mediterranean Sea and is hauled onto a fishing boat. When the ship's doctor examines the unconscious castaway, he discovers two bullet wounds and an implanted device that displays a Swiss bank account number. With nothing but this code, the amnesiac Bourne travels to Zurich and gains access to a safe-deposit box containing a gun, thousands of dollars in various currencies, and valid passports from numerous countries - each listing a different identity. Within minutes, Bourne is on the run from a seemingly ever-present agency, relying on language and fighting skills he didn't even know he possessed! Offering $20,000 for a ride to Paris, Bourne gains the reluctant help of the nomadic Marie (Franka Potente). Meanwhile, the shadowy organization, headed by a tough-talking bureaucrat (Chris Cooper), sends numerous assassins (including the Professor, played by Clive Owen) after Bourne and Marie. As their situation grows more perilous, the two strangers struggle to find out who Bourne really is and why they are being hunted...

forget the book 35 out of 100
Forget the book if you have read it and then enjoy a good action film that stands alone. Damon plays his part well and the action is good. If you want an adaptation of Ludlum's book, forget it

Great actioner 45 out of 100
I got bogged down reading the book..just wasn't for me but the movie is vastly more entertaining and that's normally the other way around! Damon is great ion the lead role and the actions comes thick and fast. Beat James Bond hands down and I reckon they used this as the blueprint fr the new bond. Highly recommended and the two sequels are as good.

Fast Paced thriller 45 out of 100
I missed this original installment and instead started with no 3 the latest. This a great movie that keeps you on your toes wondering who is doing what to whom and who are the people in power. Well recommended - a movie I could watch several times.
