The Bourne Identity

A. O. SCOTT, a writer for New York Times, wrote this review about The Bourne Identity. She talks about how the plot goes with the novel written by Robert Ludlum . "The story moves swiftly enough to make the time pass pleasantly, and it is not so complicated that you are likely to miss anything if you take a brief nap, wander off to the lavatory or devote your concentration to the difficult task of removing the plastic wrap from your meal. " The actor Matt Damon makes good chase scenes in the movie. "Mr. Damon at first seems too moody and cerebral to be an action hero, but he grasps Bourne's predicament perfectly, and takes it seriously enough to make the film's improbable conceit seem more interesting than it might otherwise have been."
