9 out of 10

 

Matt Damon is formidable in the leading role of Bourne, I am looking forward to see him as Ulysses, in the feverishly expected the Odyssey adapted by Christopher Nolan, which could be as overwhelming as Oppenheimer https://realinibarzoi.blogspot.com/2025/02/oppenheimer-is-fabulous-glasperlenspiel.html

 

The leading character is on board a ship in the opening scenes, where he has trouble remembering who he is, he suffers from amnesia, the captain helps him get to Switzerland, where he goes to this bank, where he has an account, they have a safe box for him, and the details of his palm in memory, this is how he gets access

He finds his name is Jason Bourne, but there are maybe more than five passports inside the box, in excess of a hundred thousand dollars, maybe close to a million – considering he says later this will give you so much in life, or something similar – the passports all have his photo, they pretend he is from Brazil, Russia, Canada…

 

Brian Cox https://realinibarzoi.blogspot.com/2025/12/succession-created-by-jesse-armstrong_23.html plays Ward Abott, the nemesis of the hero, aka the anti-hero, although we are not sure at the start what the game is, Matt Damon will find gradually what he is capable of, and keeps asking himself and others who he is

 

he has an altercation at the American Embassy, when they try and hold him, in fact, I think it was the Consulate, but never mind, he is very capable, strong, an exceptional fighter, and he survives this extreme challenge, and he saw a woman who had some issues with money, the visa and some other things…

 Franka Potente is Marie, and we have a fabulous performance here – the actress was remarkable in the wonderful Run Lola Run – Jason comes to her, and he offers ten thousand dollars for a ride to Paris – he had found from the box at the bank that he lives in Paris, she is reluctant, and then he raises with another ten thousand

 

On the way to Paris, he explains that he has spectacular abilities, knows the registration plates of the cars outside this bar, evaluates people’s abilities to fight, and we will see him facing (other) killers, he is indeed a marvelous fighting machine, that others are determined to destroy, the trouble here is the conspiracy theory

The main idea would be that the CIA or NSA is up to no good, and until the Orange Nero entered the White House, and then destroyed some of it (what a good joke King Charles III made on this), that was untrue, now, alas, we face Armageddon https://realinibarzoi.blogspot.com/2025/08/reign-of-terror-how-911-era.html
