Matt Damon reprises his most legendary role: the suffering from amnesia ex-agent Jason Bourne. Director Paul Greengrass sends Damon this time not only to Las Vegas, but also to Berlin.
Even Hollywood stars want to breathe deeply. Just announced Matt Damon ( “The Martians”) in an American television show that he soon wanted to take a year off from acting to spend more time with the family. But before Damon’s perhaps the most important role of his career to see again: as a secret agent Jason Bourne, who has to fight not only with him always pursuing CIA, but especially with his patchy memory
It. is the fifth part of a started fourteen years ago series in which, among other things already Franke Potente acted at Damons page. After movies like “The Bourne Supremacy” and “The Bourne Ultimatum” played in 2012 once Jeremy Renner instead of Damon (in “The Bourne Legacy”). This time, Damon is now flanked by actors like Tommy Lee Jones and Alicia Vikander; . Also Paul Greengrass, on whose account already two of the “Bourne” films go, is again as a director here
Bourne stop
At the beginning of the breathless Zweistünders we learn, worth Bourne be a living now with dirty price wars anywhere on the Greek-Albanian border. The past, however, brings the former US agents this time a. Hardly 15 minutes of film old when we were in Iceland, Rome, in the Silicon Valley and in Athens. In the Greek capital Jason meets ex-agent Nicky who has recently hacked the computer system of the CIA. The fished out of her files contain sensitive information about Bourne’s past. Especially the role of his deceased father appears in a completely new light.
The American foreign intelligence makes itself after the filing of Prey course immediately because not only Nicky off, but also to stop Bourne. Assistance with his hunting experiences of elderly CIA chief Dewey (Jones) through its latest secret weapon: a young CIA agent named Heather Lee (Vikander). On his flight finally verschlägt Jason also to Berlin.
When he Jason Bourne in the cinema was ( “The Bourne Identity”, 2002), was Matt Damon just beginning 30 years old and first came to the yet extremely milchbubig therefore. He is now 45 – and the fifth part of the action series a challenge for Damons physique. Because even if the actor all the looks past years, so necessary Damons physical effort and the resulting screen presence but this time due respect from.
Classic spy thriller
Tommy Lee Jones, meanwhile, is pretty cool as CIA boss, really great scenes but keeps the script for the Texan who soon in Dennis Gansel’s “Mechanic: Resurrection” is to be seen, not ready. The boy, from movies like “Ex Machina” and “The Danish Girl” known Swedish and Oscar winner Alicia Vikander contrast found in the course of the film more and more into the role of ambitious, hardly inscrutable young Agent. The Frenchman Vincent Cassel ( “Black Swan”) finally has a short, albeit succinct appearance as callous and haggard professional killer who unfinished business has with Bourne.
“Jason Bourne” is a classic, all old school Obligated to technical frills largely abandon forming spy thriller: There is a splendid chase sequence, trapped tree in the middle of the casinos and luxury hotels, Las Vegas Strip, old fashioned lockers play here just as important as cutting-edge computer technology. The omniscient CIA, you also know this from countless similar stored movies, not just anywhere eyes but also all agents that never sleep and seemingly never have to eat. And there is a veritable showdown, also in Las Vegas.
This is all strictly staged, wonderfully choreographed and assembled. The renewed collaboration but between Damon, who is also the producer here, and Greengrass takes himself for a little too seriously. One wishes the film more humor à la “Mission Impossible” and its protagonist, the great and so enigmatic Jason Bourne, more moments of pause and reflection. The success, however, the little weaknesses will do no harm; in the United States is in any case “Jason Bourne” equal landed in first place at the box office
