So I've decided, to help me stay on track, I'll start reviewing the movies that I watch.
There's no rhyme or reason to it, it's just what I'm feeling like on the night, and how good my concentration levels are.
So. First up is The Bourne Identity, starring Matt Damon as Jason Bourne.
I haven't read any of the books, but the movie is highly entertaining.
Jason Bourne is some kind of super-spy, who has been fished out of the ocean with absolutely no memory of who he is. Then things start going REALLY bad.
A friend of mine pointed out that the reason these movies are so good is that Bourne has to rely on his wits to get through, and she's right. He has amnesia, but muscle memory kicks in and he powers through.
The cast is absolutely stacked to the gills with some top action talent, though Julia Stiles is criminally under-used in this one. From memory her part expands in the next movie.
The perfect Friday night film.
