"Jason Bourne" by Yojimbo

Yojimbo - wrote on 01/01/2017

Jason Bourne is living off the grid but when Nicky Parsons hacks the C.I.A. mainframe and uncovers information about his father, he returns to the U.S.A. to find answers. Jason Bourne - or more accuratelyy Bourne IV: The Revenge - is pretty much exactly what I was expecting. Matt Damon with rucksack in hand is pursued by earnest looking men with earpieces, biff baff boff he dispatches them and disappears. He flies to another exotic location, he is pursued by earnest looking men with earpieces, biff baff boff he dispatches them and disappears. Et cetera. There is some attempt to address some of the issues of the digital age - namely the right to privacy and the dubious morality of mass surveillance - and there is a flashy finale that is so over the top it felt like a refugee from a …

Matt Damon is being chased by the government again. Government is run by good guys and bad guys. Government has nasty scary people working for them. Matt Damon beats the shit of them. Or kills them. Jason Bourne will be noted for its high body count compared to the other films. The best part of the movie is definitely the climactic car chase in Las Vegas. It's no coincidence that this just so happens to be the only big action scene not using shakey cam. The one-on-one fight scenes aren't badly directed though and are surprisingly brutal. I
