Plain and simple... WATCH THIS MOVIE!!! If you're an action or spy fan of any sorts, the Bourne trilogy is a must, and might be the best Spy series ever made. James Bond is fine, but this takes the genre to a whole new level. Jason Bourne is a true spy who doesn't need crazy gadgets and martinis to finish the job. Rather, he knows how to kill quickly, efficientily and quietly, and the realism of these movies make this so much more rewarding and satisfying.
On top of Damon's fantastic performance (its his defining role), the action scenes are some of the best around. Although there are a few moments that are unrealistic, for the most part everything works, and it's beyond enthralling. This movie is one continuous action scene that doesn't let up until the very end. Because of this, the viewer is on the edge of their seat the entire time, full of tension, excitement and surprise. Truly a benchmark of the action genre
