If You've Seen One "Jason Bourne" Film, You Really Have Seen Them All


Jason Bourne (2016)  

Rated PG-13

Starring Matt Damon, Tommy Lee Jones, Alicia Vikander, Vincent Cassell, Julia Stiles,

Directed by Paul Greengrass

The Story:

Jason Bourne (Damon) is back again, and he's going to kill the people that turned him into a deadly assassin with a past he cannot remember.

Wait, stop me if you've seen this before...

Yes, the 4th Damon entry into the Bourne franchise arrives in 2016, the year of long dormant sequels to franchises we all assumed were dead and buried.

And yes, Greengrass and Damon reunite to bring the troubled past of Jason Bourne once again to viewers everywhere.

As usual, I'm really indifferent to these films.

I've seen them all, and ironically, the most coherent and best of the bunch is the one that had Jeremy Renner as the star.

So there.

: )

Otherwise, they are literally a forgettable mashup of spy thriller cat and mouse.

Stylish, but utterly forgettable.

Much like Bourne's past.

At least Julia Stiles finally found a way to get out of this franchise...

Ooops.

Spoiler.

;)

Final Grade: C
