How did anyone find Alex and Mo?” “We don’t know, but Alex will start looking.

Marie looked at her husband, his suddenly passive face outlined in the dim wash of the dashboard lights. What she saw frightened her far more than the specter of the Jackal. She was not looking at David Webb the soft-spoken scholar. She was staring at a man they both thought had disappeared from their lives forever.

  • How to Sell a Boring Action Hero an Analysis of the Success of the Bourne Ultimatum Within the Context of Corporate Hollywood
    How to sell a boring action hero An analysis of the success of The Bourne Ultimatum within the context of corporate Hollywood Abstract Jason Bourne is certainly not your typical action hero. He may share his initials with that other undercover icon James Bond, but ultimately, they have very little else in common. Jason Bourne is ordinary looking, has no sparkling personality, and no apparent sense of humor. To make things worse, he suffers from amnesia. Initially, all he knows about himself is that he displays impressive situational awareness, has an astonishing set of fighting skills, and that parties unknown want to kill him. Consequently, he looks confused whenever he is not otherwise engaged in dispatching bad guys. Nor is there any eye candy — no beaches and no babes — to make up for his otherwise rather dull personality. Even the final outcome of the Bourne films to date is far from uplifting. Ultimately, Bourne lays bare the moral bankruptcy of the West and its main political and economic systems. A boring action hero in a politically engaged story? This sounds like a recipe for disaster at the box office and yet the Bourne trilogy is one of the most successful Hollywood franchises in recent years. How did Jason Bourne acquire such a huge audience and critical acclaim? Can a film be both mass entertainment and score high on an artistic scale? How did anti- corporatism and anti-capitalism find its way into mainstream Hollywood? How does all this fit into the marketing strategies of Universal Studios? To summarize: Is there still hope for Hollywood, both aesthetically and ethically? Introduction An unconscious man is picked up by a fishing boat, bullet-riddled and without memory.

  • The Bourne Ultimatum Talent
    The Bourne Ultimatum Talent: Matt Damon, Joan Allen, David Strathairn, Julia Stiles, Paddy Considine, Albert Finney, Scott Glenn. Date of review: Thursday 16th August, 2007 Writer/director/editor: Paul Greengrass Classification: M Duration: 114 minutes We rate it: Four and a half stars. 2007 has certainly been the year of Hollywood “threequels”. Spider-Man 3, Ocean’s Thirteen, Shrek the Third and Pirates of the Caribbean 3 have all seen release this year, and now we await the third instalment of the hugely successful Bourne series, which will hit our screens at the end of this month. The Bourne Ultimatum (which follows The Bourne Identity and The Bourne Supremacy) is currently smashing its way through almost everything else at the US box-office, and will no doubt make a significant impact when it opens here. The first of the Bourne films, which was directed by independent American filmmaker Doug Liman, slammed its way onto screens in 2002. It showed Matt Damon developing as an actor by taking on a heroic tough-guy role and making of it something quite subversive. At the time Damon was still better known as an actor most interested in small-scale independent projects, and who paid the bills, as it were, by working with the likes of Coppola and Spielberg. The Bourne Identity emerged as a notable success, and both Damon’s convincing and complex performance and Liman’s left-of-centre filmmaking approach brought elements of grittiness and believability to what could otherwise have been a by-the-numbers action yarn. The premise, taken from Robert Ludlum’s trilogy of up-market airport novels, was that an ex-US government assassin, Jason Bourne, had gone “off the reservation”, abandoning his gun-for-hire assignments and focussing instead on understanding his own disturbing past.
