Pleased August 16, 2008 Suzanne Moors (reno, nv) Very satisfied with how quickly this item was received. I should have ordered all three Bourne from this seller as it took twice as long for the second cd to arrive, and I'm still waiting for Bourne Supremacy ordered in July to arrive. I have emailed that seller three times and have yet to get a response. I will only deal with this seller in the future. Thank you....Suzy
I love that Euro stuff July 18, 2008 MPraetorius (Charlestown, RI) Great movie, lots of action. My favorite scene had to be when the two main characters are in Franka's car and she asked "What kind of music do you like?" There they were driving in that tiny car, running from the officials, and she's being kind. It made me think of being in a similar vehicle, '59 Renault, equipped with an in-dash short wave radio. That was Europe to me and this line brought it back.
Bourne to Survive July 16, 2008 Stephen Pletko (London, Ontario, Canada) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
XXXXX br / br /This movie is loosely based on the 1980 novel of the same name by Robert Ludlum (1927 to 2001). br / br /Do you like action-packed mystery-thrillers? If you do, then this movie is a must-see. br / br /The viewer along with the main character in this movie, later revealed to be Jason Bourne (Matt Damon), suffers from amnesia, not knowing his own identity (thus the movie's title) or anything about his past. As the movie progresses, both the viewer and Bourne discover one major thing: he posses a lethal survival skill-set that's light years above that of the average Joe. The other things Bourne discovers about himself make him unhappy with him, at one point saying: br / br /"Everything I find out [about myself], I want to forget." br / br /Once the viewer discovers that the premise of this entire movie is about discovering identity, then it can only hold the viewer's attention in one way: through action. It is on this that the movie delivers especially with respect to incredible fight sequences. One character summarizes the majority of the movie when he says that Bourne leaves a br / br /"trail of collateral damage from Zurich to Paris." br / br /It is at the movie's end that all is revealed. br / br /Matt Damon as Jason Bourne effectively carries the entire movie. If not for his fine performance, I think this movie would have probably been a flop. I also found that the background music and sometimes gritty photography to be impressive. br / br /This movie spawned two sequels: "The Bourne Supremacy" (2004) and "The Bourne Ultimatum" (2007). br / br /The only problem with this movie is that the idea of Bourne constantly trying to discover his identity can become tedious. True, the action sequences attempt to take away from this tedium but I found myself getting a bit restless as the movie proceeded. br / br /Finally, the DVD itself (the one released in 2004) is perfect in picture and sound quality. There are many extras including an alternate ending. br / br /In conclusion, this movie introduces us to a new action hero and his name is Jason Bourne!! br / br /(2002; 1 hr 50 min (excluding end credits); wide screen; 20 scenes) br / br /Stephen Pletko, London, Ontario, Canada br / br /XXXXX br /
Poor video transfer spoils an otherwise worthy library addition July 12, 2008 Norman Eng The video transfer of this film is too dark, but an adjustment to your TV brightness setting will yield an acceptable viewing. The extras are quite informative especially the part dealing with Ludlum's knowledge of the intelligence community.
Based on what?!!!! June 20, 2008 J. Washburn (San Diego, CA) 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
The movie is awful. Boring. Plotless and the only thing that relates to the entire book is the title The Bourne Identity. The books that the movie is based on are three of the most cherished books in my library. 1st they do a really poor job of introducing the characters. It was not till the third installation that I finally learned the name of several of the characters. br / br /Let me just list off who is not in the movie (these are MAJOR characters in the book too!): br / br /Alexander Conklin - Jason Bourne's creator friend. br /Moe Panov - Jason Bourne's doctor friend. br /Carlos - Jason Bourne's nemesis, his equal. br / br /These three characters are NOT just paramount in the story line - they ARE the story line. br / br /I am certain that the screenwriters, directors and everyone else on board with this movie never read the books and only wanted to make a quick buck. br / br /A sad excuse for a good book. An absolute chaotic nightmare!
