He Was The Perfect Weapon Until He Became The Perfect Target.
As THE BOURNE IDENTITY begins, 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.

this is a really exctiitng movie to watch, and it will really keep you on ethe edge of your seat with excitemnt! stars matt damon as bourne, who is a really trained super killing machine. he jas forgotten his identity, but then finds out who he really is. some really explosive action scenes in here are amazing!
The boring identity, a book mediocre at best isn't exactly going to make a thrilling movie now is it? Nor a sequel.
I would like for once to see a movie that isn't so predictably Hollywood. But that'll never happen as people are deluded into thinking that these are great movies and they need to fill that niche with whatever crap they can plough out in order to make mulla.
Remake books, old movies, cartoons, computer games and that is supposed to mean something to me?.
A very good film intepretation of the classic Robert Ludlum novel. Matt Damon seems a little young for the highly trained CIA dark ops agent he is, but he's still cool. Heaps of extras, some boring deleted scenes, and about seven minutes of extra footage round out this "explosive extended edition" - a good film to have in any dvd collection...
