Storyline

Jason Bourne is again being hunted by the CIA. It begins when Nicky Parsons a former CIA operative who helped Bourne, who went under and now works with a man who's a whistle blower and is out to expose the CIA's black ops. Nicky hacks into the CIA and downloads everything on all their Black Ops, including Treadstone which Bourne was a part of. And Heather Lee, a CIA agent, discovers the hack and brings it to the attention of CIA Director Dewey, the man behind the Black Ops. He orders Parsons be found and, hopefully, Bourne, too.

Goofs

When the CIA cuts power to the hacker site in Iceland, every computer, monitor and laptop appear to go Dow. Any self respecting network admin would be running Uniteruptable Power Supplies. The laptops run on internal batteries. At the minimum, cutting the power might cut internet access but the routers and modems should be powered by UPSes too.

User Reviews

Great action and entertainment

I could only say wow after I have seen it with one of my best friends in the theater. The car chases were amazing here. Seeing these scenes on the large screen is a great experience. The shaky hand camera didn't disturb so far as written so often in these reviews. The story is simply told with some little flaws that didn't influence the high pace and the perfect timed entertainment. At the end even a sequel could be possible. To the actors I can say that they all delivered a credibly top performance. Matt Damon especially is for me one of the best actors. Vincent Cassell was interesting to see in his villain role. Give this movie a chance and enjoy it. For all these reasons it merits 8/10.
