Here, the action consists mainly of chases, hurtling headlong into unknown territory, and the director's lurching, shaking camera leaves everything an indecipherable, gnarled mess.The most dangerous former operative of the CIA is drawn out of hiding to uncover hidden truths about his past. In the excellent The Bourne Ultimatum, Greengrass took care in establishing the physical surroundings of each action sequence. But in Jason Bourne, both the story and his motivations are more muddled - is he seeking revenge, to shut down the CIA's illicit programs, or both? - and Bourne is much harder to get behind.ĭamon seems to be going through the motions, the other actors seem equally lost or bored, and behind it all, Greengrass turns in some of his sloppiest work.
After the Jeremy Renner reboot The Bourne Legacy, star Damon and director Paul Greengrass return for this fifth entry but you have to wonder, why did they even bother, when everyone looks bored? In earlier movies, Damon gave commanding physical performances, using his eyes and expression to take in his surroundings and calculate his next move.
