Review of Jason Bourne (2016) by Laura D — 14 Aug 2016

It was an entertaining movie but the collateral damage was very excessive making the plot completely implausible! One of things I always enjoyed about this movie series was it was plausible! The plot twists regarding Bourne's recruitment were silly! Assets killing CIA agents for CIA leaders has nothing to do with patriotism! Its just psychos killing people for their own selfish motivations.

So you can't even respect the modern challenges the CIA faces! The new Tech character/job was very interesting! How far technology has come in the intelligence world was amazing and scary at the same time! To be brutally honest, I preferred the Bourne Legacy over Jason Bourne! I love Matt Damon as the lead character but Jeremy Renner as Alex Cross, a genetically altered Jason Bourne like agent was very entertaining! Although Tony Gilroy has received criticism from Damon, the BL plot was smart showing how the CIA & DOD were trying to recreate more Bourne type agents.

It was a fun movie and very plausible. I hope the producers team up Alex Cross & Jason Bourne somehow even though Bourne is a more solitiary character.
