	THE BOURNE IDENTITY - COLLECTOR'S EDITION (WIDESCREEN) DVD
		Bourne enlists the help of bohemian Marie (Franka Potente), promising her twenty-thousand dollars should she agree to drive him from Zurich to Paris--where Jason Bourne, apparently, lives.
		The Bourne Identity offers almost nothing in the way of conventional solutions to its puzzles--it isn't that the plot is particularly Byzantine, it's that the film steadfastly resists providing the resolutions that jaded audiences have come to expect.
		The Bourne Identity is brilliant filmmaking, a testament to the editor's craft (Saar Klein) scored by a wise low-key techno-orchestration by composer John Powell that speaks to Liman's knack for using music to augment a scene (while leaving it unobscured) rather than narrate it.

	"The Bourne Identity" - Salon
		In the new spy thriller "The Bourne Identity," we watch as fear, anxiety, grief, shock and a host of other emotions scurry across her face.
		Her companion, Jason Bourne (Matt Damon), is an amnesiac who woke up on a Russian fishing trawler after being plucked from the sea with two bullets in him.
		Entertaining, handsome and gripping, "The Bourne Identity" is something of an anomaly among big-budget summer blockbusters: a thriller with some brains and feeling behind it, more attuned to story and character than to spectacle.

	Bourne Identity
		One of the names contained on the numerous passports in the bag was Jason Bourne, the name now adopted by the healing man. He hires a gypsy woman Marie (Franka Potente) to drive him to Paris and the stage is set for almost non-stop action.
		Bourne is a very dangerous man, one trained in all the marital arts, several languages and almost inhuman powers of observation.
		Bourne is a departure from his other films such as Go and Swingers but he carries over his respect for his craft.

	The Bourne Identity - Rotten Tomatoes
		As THE BOURNE IDENTITY begins, a man who may or may not be Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) is found floating in the Mediterranean Sea and is hauled onto a fishing boat.
		The Bourne Identity is what summer screen escapism used to be in the decades when it was geared more to grownups.
		Doug Liman, the director of Bourne, directs the traffic well, gets a nice wintry look from his locations, absorbs us with the movie's spycraft and uses Damon's ability to be focused and sincere.

	Cinema Confidential Review: The Bourne Identity (2002)
		Based on Robert Ludlum’s 1980 novel, the melodramatic spin on the story is that Bourne is an amnesiac who is rescued by a crew of a fishing boat off the coast of Italy and has to reassemble his past to figure out who he was and why the CIA is after him.
		Another interesting sequence is when Bourne is stuck inside a countryside house with the knowledge that a sniper awaits outside for him, and his strategy to get out of the house swiftly and safely is a sleek and cunning piece of maneuvering.
		Bourne turns the sniper into a lame duck that becomes the hunted, and his chess-move genius is brilliantly designed and lucidly photographed.

	The Bourne Identity at DVDwolf.com
		Most of The Bourne Identity uses Paris as a backdrop as does the film CQ which I caught a few hours after Bourne.
		From that point on Bourne is trying to piece together his identity while we realize that the C.I.A. figures they have a rogue operator and wake all their sleeper agents to take the man out.
		No major whacky gadgets, character moments between Bourne and Marie (Potente) that are sweet and believable, and little spy things like taking the radio of a dead operative and grabbing a fire exit plan from the wall as his guide during a chase through an American Embassy.

	The Bourne Identity
		Thinking more about it, "The Bourne Identity's" success hinged on excitement-an excitement generated by three factors: a sense of momentum that kept me engaged, unique action set pieces that did not overstay their welcome, and filmmakers who seemed just as interested in making this adventure fun as they did in making it believable.
		While Bourne's ultimate identity is not as surprising as we might like, enough fun has been generated in the journey itself.
		In "The Bourne Identity," Bourne seems to be a similar innocent man chased by superior forces, unsure of how he will get out of his next mess.

	Shimes' Review of The Bourne Identity
		Published in 1980, the book of The Bourne Identity is the first in a series of three big, pulpy spy novels in which the CIA has infinite resources at its command and could possibly outwit both Bill Gates and and the KGB if it had to.
		In loss of identity stories, the main character has to reconstruct who he is—not just who he is, but in the sense of what kind of person he is. In the book, Bourne thinks he might be a paid assassin, and engages in a real conflict over whether or not he was a "good" guy.
		Her sexuality should be a weapon that attacks Bourne's human side, thus drawing him further away from his life as cyborg-ish killer, but Liman only gives us a momentary glimpse of the sexual tension between the two.

	THE BOURNE IDENTITY
		His past is a mystery, though after a few explosive encounters it becomes clear to him that he's no ordinary man. He not only assesses his surroundings with pinpoint accuracy, but is a major physical threat as well, ending every aggressive encounter decisively and painfully for his foe.
		Bourne apparently failed in his last mission and is now an embarrassment to the operation.
		Bourne's final escape is as breathtaking as it is silly.

	The Bourne Identity
		While "The Bourne Identity" is not a great film, it certainly is a good action thriller that captures the essence of the Ludlum novel.
		Techs are traditional, for the most part, and help to make "The Bourne Identity" feel like a spy thriller from the 60's or 70's, but with a modern look.
		Bourne is spotted at the American Embassy, but escapes, using some daring wall-scaling skills.

	The Bourne Identity: Cinephiles Movie Review
		The Bourne Identity, directed by Doug Liman (Swingers) and based on the novel by Robert Ludlum, focuses on a young, male protagonist who struggles to recover from amnesia, yet who finds instead strong incentives not to, after gathering enough evidence that point to his turbulent past and an extremely risky profession.
		The Bourne Identity tries to create suspense by assigning its character the difficult mission of piecing together evidence that may reveal his true identity and bring back his memory, while simultaneously establishing the convenience of being assumed dead by his enemies.
		However, when dangerous enemies discover Jason Bourne is alive and launch their searches, the plot degenerates into a series of persecution scenes that sacrifice further character development in favor of thrill-seeking action.

	Review: Bourne Identity, The (2002)
		The Bourne Identity doesn't have much of a story to speak of - the plot is a jumping-off point and a means to keep things rolling from one action sequence to the next.
		Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) is a CIA assassin who loses his memory after a failed mission that results in him being shot twice and left floating in the ocean.
		The Bourne Identity is directed by Swingers helmsman Doug Liman, who proves himself to be capable of generating and sustaining suspense.

	The Bourne Identity
		The Bourne Identity has an absurd premise that's as irresistible as it is ludicrous.
		There, he learns that he's named Jason Bourne - at least that's what one of the dozen passports in his safety deposit box says - and that he seems to be a player in a dangerous international intrigue.
		For its first half, The Bourne Identity balances between droll comedy and paranoiac suspense, with a new, more menacing opponent hiding in every shadow and Bourne as surprised as we are by his ingenuity at dispatching them.

	The Bourne Identity (2002) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) is pulled from the ocean with no memory of his past, but with a built in knack for driving cars, weapons use, evasion, and martial arts.
		Instead of being wowed by Bourne's athletic and technical prowess, the audience is meant to appreciate his ability to survive in the "real" world.
		Bourne meets the challenge with a pen, of all things, and proves that it is at least as mighty as a sword after he repeatedly stabs the attacker before lodging it into the guy's hand.

	Movieman's Guide to the Movies - The Bourne Identity (2002)
		The twist here is Bourne has no idea who he is, where he is, how the hell he got two bullets in his back and why he can kick butt out of impulse.
		Little by little Bourne pieces together who he is, and like Tom Ripley, does not like who he is. The agency that trained him have brought out their full power assigning several assassins to go after Bourne.
		Her Marie Kreatz and Damon's Jason Bourne both have a mysterious quality about them, thereby translating to good chemistry that is vital and often fails in many films.

	'Bourne Identity, The'
		Alfred Hitchcock is frequently quoted to the effect that suspense (of which he was the master) derives from the audience knowing something that a movie character doesn't.
		Along with the film's authentic locations, she gives the movie a European flair that will either distinguish it from your everyday Hollywood spy thriller or else remind you of how such movies used to be handled in the 1970s.
		"The Bourne Identity" turns out basically to be a chase movie that holds up rather well as long as you don't ask too much from it in the way of characterization, motivation or full explanation.

	The Bourne Identity - March 19, 2007 - The New York Sun
		In several interviews published before the New York premiere of his "Edward Scissorhands," Matthew Bourne took what seemed like a few pre-emptive hits at alleged pure dance critical arbiters, who have in the past found his work deficient in choreographic invention.
		Bourne — who, as the program states, "devised, directed and choreographed" the production — was at pains to prove his choreographic chops.
		Bourne has certainly taken possession of Tim Burton's 1990 film, personalizing and theatricalizing it so that his adaptation does not seem like a derivation.

	The Bourne Identity Movie Review at Hollywood Video
		Thickening the plot is Bourne's inexplicable command of a half-dozen languages — including Dutch, German, and French — and the small matter of the heavily armed men who try to kill him at every turn.
		It soon becomes clear to Bourne and Marie (Franka Potente) —; the German girl who unwisely gives him a ride to Paris — that he is mixed up with the CIA.
		As amnesiac super spy Jason Bourne, Damon is appealingly vulnerable in his confusion, but coldly efficient in his plotting and butt-kicking, making him the perfect hero for an action movie that's as much about character as it is about saving the day.

		The two travel to Paris, where Bourne's attempt to stir up the old memory banks is rudely interrupted by an assassin crashing in to his apartment and trying to kill him.
		Bourne, having failed in his mission, has become a liability, and the high-level desk jockeys back in DC are in full CYA mode.
		The Bourne Identity is a film based on a novel by robert ludlum,and stars Matt Damon as an assassin for the CIA who suffers from amnesia and cant remember why he would have been found by a bunch of fisher men in the sea with two bullet wounds in his back.

	REELINSIDER.COM - THE BOURNE IDENTITY
		So after watching "The Bourne Identity" for two hours I found that I was entertained.
		The film is all about Bourne trying to find out who he is and a Government group trying to track him down to kill him and make their lost spy problem go away.
		Bourne is off and running early and hooks up with Marie, played by Franka Potente of "Run, Lola, Run" (which is an amazing film, you should check it out on dvd).
