What is Bourne's finest outing? We've ranked them all
Action is a movie genre dominated by muscular hero types with single causes and absolute moral certainty about what they're doing and why they're doing it, which is what makes Jason Bourne such a rare breed.
Liman wanted Bourne to be Brad Pitt, but in the end, he settled on Matt Damon, who gave the character a nuance, urgency and pathos that made him an action hero we hadn't seen before. Who was this man? Who'd trained him? And what had he done? After the triumphant ending of the original Bourne trilogy with The Bourne Ultimatum , Matt Damon made it clear in interviews and to studio executives that he would not do another Bourne film without director Paul Greengrass. And, when Greengrass declined the option of a fourth movie, Damon was out too.
As Cross runs, he comes across Rachel Weisz's Dr. Marta Shearing, one of the doctors from Outcome, and the two partner up in an attempt to keep themselves alive. It was hoped that this might extend the franchise, but instead producers pivoted to TV with Treadstone, which found itself canceled after one season. Now we're into the original trilogy, and, truthfully, there's very little to choose between them.
A great action film, this is Greengrass' first foray into the franchise and he creates an amped-up globe-trotting thriller, with bruising physicality and endless twists and turns as Bourne battles Karl Urban's Kirill. This movie's only drawback is the ending goes a bit wild, especially when Brian Cox's Ward Abbott, who was once in charge of Treadstone, comes into play. Narrowly missing out on the top spot, this is the movie that launched the franchise, a blistering opening salvo.
