The Bourne Redundancy...

Matt Damon is being chased by the government again. Government is run by good guys and bad guys. Government has nasty scary people working for them. Matt Damon beats the shit of them. Or kills them. Jason Bourne will be noted for its high body count compared to the other films. The best part of the movie is definitely the climactic car chase in Las Vegas. It's no coincidence that this just so happens to be the only big action scene not using shakey cam. The one-on-one fight scenes aren't badly directed though and are surprisingly brutal. I
If you saw the rest of the Bourne movies, even the abysmal Legacy, then you can guys the plot before the credits roll. Why not have Jason Bourne fight actual villains for once to change things up like terrorists or gangsters? Or hell give him a female companion that doesn't get killed. Don't worry it's not the one you think. I will credit Vincent Cassel for being a convincing antagonist.
If I sound harsh on this movie, I did enjoy it better than what I'm typing but the formula is worn out Greengrass. Try something different for a change.
