The Bourne Identity


A man is found in the sea and rescued by a fishing boat. When he awakens he does not remember who he is. With only a few clues he has to try and recover his identity, but what he finds is not what he expected.

The Jason Bourne movies are some of my favorite action/thriller movies. The first movie delivers everything you are craving and a little extra. The story is loosely based on the books by Robert Ludlum and although they changed it a lot it is still very good and fits as a movie. You are in the edge of you're seat the whole time. The acting is terrific all around and all the actors fit their characters. The bourne Identity is a new take on action movies. Instead of explosions and hot girls this movie has more fast passed scenes, with more realistic situations. Some may find the shaky camera a bit annoying, but I think it only adds to the experience and help you feel as you are right there with Jason Bourne, trying to find out who he is.

The music score is also wonderful and suits the movie perfect. I have watched this movie more times than I remember and every time it get's a little better. 10/10
