The Bourne movies are action from start to finish. This is th first of a series. Bourne (Matt Damon) has botched an assassination attempt, an was shot in the back twice. He is fished from the ocean by some fishermen, and they save his life. He does not know who he is, but they discover a chip in his. body with a safe deposit box number. There he finds cash and passports from several countries with his picture and the name Jason Bourne. He recruits a young woman, Marie (Franka Potente) for a ride. However his former boss, Conklin (Chris Cooper) of Treadstone is not willing to let him go. Conklin's boss is Ward Abbott (Brian Cox). They send several assassins after Bourne, but they are not successful. He gets Marie away. In the end he get away himself. Abbott orders an assassin to take out Conklin. The woman who was Bourne's handler is Nicki Parsons (Julia Stiles). She does not believe Bourne has gone rogue.
High action and the amnesia angle makes this a more interesting movie.
