When the first Bourne film – The Bourne Identity (2002) – hit the cinema, critics all over the world lauded its originality and fantastic, realistic storyline.

Matt Damon was already famous for several other works, but the Bourne trilogy has been his most successful yet.

The three films follow the story of Jason Bourne, a former top-level spy operative with a remarkable set of skills that is now suffering from amnesia and cannot remember his past. Bourne learns with time that he was part of the Treadstone project, a CIA initiative setup to enable the CIA to kill important political figures in other countries when they felt the need to do so.

In the second film (The Bourne Supremacy), Bourne’s lover is killed and he is determined to follow a new course of action to take down those responsible.

The three films are notable for their rapid pace and clever plots, as well as some fantastic fight sequences.

The musical score of the three films has also been lauded, and the cinematography is first rate.

There are many Bourne blu-ray options available today, and you can see extra features, deleted scenes and interviews if you purchase the three films in a Bourne Trilogy bluray boxed set.
