Think you know Damon’s films? When his old ally Nicky Parsons (Julia Stiles) tells Bourne his father may have been more deeply linked to the Central Intelligence Agency than he realises, Bourne’s pitted against Dewey and his protégée Heather Lee (Alicia Vikander) in a continent-crossing bid to uncover the truth.
The final fight in Jason Bourne is one of biggest and baddest brawls in the whole franchise.
Of course, with a filmmaker as smart and talented as Paul Greengrass running the show, Jason Bourne does have some interesting things to offer within its mess of unfortunate choices, but they also lend the movie a bit of frustration to go with the audiences’ disappointment.
Jason Bourne’s adventure has spanned (soon to be) four films and 14 years, but Matt Damon needs only 90 seconds to explain it all.
Frequent Greengrass collaborator, cinematographer Barry Ackroyd, gets his first shot at a Bourne film, with the editor of The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum, Christopher Rouse, now co-writing alongside the director.
The footage focuses heavily on action, Bourne on a motorcycle and a auto chase in Las Vegas.

“I still had to keep going to the gym with horrifying regularity to stay in shape, so that was the challenge, along with the long work hours”, he said, adding: “I was in shape for way longer than someone my age should be”. Taking into consideration the final result of Jason Bourne, however, it’s hard not to wonder if we may have been better off with the return of Jeremy Renner’s Aaron Cross.
