I think after the past few yrs, I am almost finally at peace. It rocked!!!! Anyone who knows me will know the importance of these films to me. So I'm glad this one was great.
I also love that cognitive awareness, level-headedness & decisiveness, too. It seemed to be pretty maxed-out at Waterloo station! My standout bits:-
*Waterloo scene
*Foot chase in Tangiers ending in a fantastic hand-to-hand.
*Nicky and Bourne - hint of romance (such a tease of a strand!)
Unintentional funny bits:-
*Poor kid in blue hood
*Bourne opportunistically nickin the NYPD cop car and leaving the cop engaged in a gunfight with Paz/henchmen. -Classic! ;o)
I wanted them to link the point when Bourne's psychosis broke (seeing Wombosi's kids in Identity) with a past, trauma of his kids/family being killed. -Which would explain his almost subconscious ability to lookout for kids (Eamon's kids in Identity). Also, what was the ultimate reason that he joined Treadstone? We know he wanted to "save American lives". But why? What drove him to this? Death in family, friend in battle, etc? You know, maybe this is a deliberate plot hole.
-My English teacher used to teach us the importance of an open-ended story and how this leaves it open to deliberate interpretation for ourselves.
Here's some snaps of the main man himself at the UK Premier I went to in London, 15th August:-
