Every now and then, I find myself coming back to this specific scene, even if I don't rewatch the whole trilogy. Everything in this scene is perfect, the editing, the rhythm, the score, the actors, the tension quickly building up, the short but brutal fight and eventually the iconic line perfectly delivered by David Strathairn… I freaking love the original Bourne's Trilogy, but this single scene is on another level of its own...
This whole film was like that. I remember talking to a friend at the time who had seen the film a couple of days before I was going to see it, and I asked him what it was like. He said, "it's pure adrenalin, it's action from start to finish and amazing".
@@lokidecat perhaps I should have put an interbang at the end to show it was a tongue-in-cheek comment !? I do get the fact that it's a fictional film....
This scene NEVER gets old. NEVER, EVER gets old. No other film has had this type of crisp editing. It's drawing you in and making your gut tight. Then it's over with, 'That's Jason Bourne'. Even if you tell yourself, it's just a movie it'll still suck you in and control you. I think that's amazing.
Absolutely correct. This was easily my favorite of the Bourne films. So many fantastic, suspenseful scenes but this Waterloo one was insane! I've been there and just imagine what it would take for Bourne to strategize in such a busy place. Brilliant stuff!
Of all the things that Jason Bourne did in the movies, surely the most extraordinary was buying a prepaid phone and having it charged, online and active in 2 minutes. Let's see James Bond do THAT!
Sky fall was pretty damn good. Also, Winter Soldier has an extremely similar feel and tone to the Bourne series. Winter Soldier is probably the closest.
lemme tell you that scene would not be possible in america, at least on the west coast, maybe LA is the exception, but we have poor transit, especially during peak hours
@@jamesgates1074 most likely when they found out he was talking to Bourne instead of blue hood guy they dumped him in an alley somewhere before he even woke up. Who is going to believe his story anyway?
I've never seen a movie had that much shot change in just 2 - 5 seconds, but the way Director Edited shot by shot and focusing, zooming, camera finding the target, man its so risky way to direct a movie. Because the viewer might get phase out with so many cuts. Bourne Ultimatum is Classic.
The viewer does get phased out. Its exhausting watching that many cuts, that's why the film works so well. It makes you feel the frenetic energy of being on the lam. So it works in services of the story, but at the same time, whew, still exhausting.
This was a great action/ espionage trilogy... I'm still a nerd for Ludlum's books and would like to see a version following the original story line... either way... great acting, directing, cool cinematography & ultimately very rewatchable.
Yup, so much so that they had to reboot Bond with Daniel Craig. There was no way they could bring Pierce back after Bourne (and I am Pierce's biggest fan).
The problem with that is the Bond movies then started to emulate the Bourne ones which to me hurt the franchise. The Bond movies always had a element of tongue in cheek about them even with the Brosnan ones. But when the Bourne movies came out. Everyone started to copy them instead of building from them and making something even better. They lost the ability to originate. I personally hate the Craig movies as he didn't have anything that made his take truly stand out from the previous actors. Connery was the original and the blueprint. Moore played up to the characters upper class heritage. Dalton was the wounded hero with a bad attitude. And Brosnan was a mix of all of them taking the best bits and making them work. Daniel Craig was bland, boring and did a better acting job as the American in the first Lara Croft movie. Which is funny as you had a Brit playing a American and a American playing a Brit.
@@CamJames I must disagree for the reasons I have stated. I hated Craig's wooden performance so much that I gave up on the franchise after Skyfall. But if you like him that thats fine considering each of the actors after Connery have had their detractors for their own portrayal of the character.
brosnan was actually grittier than previous bonds... tim dalton was like the awkward transition from cheeky to chic bond, but moore and connery, whether you want to admit it or not, were in some pretty cheesy films... but that was the style back then. brosnan was the first "modern" bond, and the craig films built on that. brosnan (die another day) begins with him being tortured for months by the koreans. he says he didnt even want to come back and that it was a mistake to make the trade. craig is just mad at MI6 because vesper died, in skyfall he's champing at the bit to return. silva is trevelyan with fancier toys.
There have been very few times when shaky cam has worked in action films without inducing nausea, but the first two Bourne films especially did it right. It was more about tension and ferocity than looking cool, something the "Taken" series (for example) never understood.
I wonder how many people realise that the background people in this scene are general public (except for the interior bus scene). They filmed it live in Waterloo without extras. Matt Damon get getting recognised by the public while trying to shoot
I knew because watching the 4K Blu-ray version you can see people in the background realising who it is, also Waterloo station is one of the busiest in London and there's no way they could shut it down to film. 🤔🤔
The thing that blows me away with the making of this movie, how did they coordinate so many extras at Waterloo station. That's a lot of people to coordinate filming the scene
Why didn't you just hand him a earphone bro....the guys would not have found him in this crowded place....But this is an afterthought....The scene is excellent and I love this movie...."THAT IS JASON BORNE" - the dialogue is resounding!
I haven't seen these movies for years. But from what I remember, I feel like somebody in a control room says "My God, that's Jason Bourne" about every 10 minutes in all the movies. Am I right?
I enjoyed these movies a great deal when they were in the theater . Now, it feels like I'm watching a documentary of actual clandestine government activities.
And no one talks about the fourth one - “Jason Bourne” (2016) - Matt Damon, or the almost non-canon one “Bourne Legacy” (2012) - Jeremy Renner, which is a better movie than the third.

@@michaelchallen Who? He doesn't exist. It never happened.
@@lokidecat perhaps I should have put an interbang at the end to show it was a tongue-in-cheek comment !? I do get the fact that it's a fictional film....

As a bloke, deep down, we all want someone out there who address us the way Vosen addressed Bourne in this scene.
This goddamn scene. Literally the pinnacle of the entire trilogy
the chase in Tangiers though 😳
The call to Landy.❤
At the theater in WA State where my wife and I saw this, the entire theater room applauded at the end of this scene.
@@rakadus two calls to Landy, the only person he trusted, somewhat.
Watching him taking apart several highly trained teams without breaking a sweat is essential Jason Bourne.
The element of surprise!
And the funny thing is that only Ross dies here.
The most unrealistic thing about this scene is the asset finding a parking spot in London at 5:25
It was rather where the staff car park is haha
He's clearly on double yellow. That's a ticket for sure
@@hugopassmore7563 The guy’s an assassin, you really think he cares about a ticket? 😅
It,s Jason Bourne .
He was green lit. He wasn’t even there.
This scene is the reason there is an Academy Award for Best Editing.
Literally perfect.
As well as script writing.
0.5 sec jump cuts
Yeah. A bunch of cuts but it’s still clean what’s happening. The cuts add to anxiety
Of all the things that Jason Bourne did in the movies, surely the most extraordinary was buying a prepaid phone and having it charged, online and active in 2 minutes. Let's see James Bond do THAT!
its a prepaid phone with a limited number of minutes
You forget this is also an old film now, and cheap switch on use and discard phones were everywhere back then
@@JulioJordio100 Also you could buy one without ID.
The Good Old Days 😏
Used to do that all the time. That’s why it is “prepaid.” Ready to go.
The music in these Bourne films is absolutely beautiful. Always gets me through my workday. Especially The Bourne Supremacy’s soundtrack
"Where's he going?" One-tenth of a second after the guy stands up. Typical management.
Oh my XD
"what do you mean you don't know? what do I pay you for!?"
@@dravmtp385 i need to know yesterday!
The fact this scene is less 10 minutes long is mind boggling.
Feels so much longer
Really? To me it feels like the opposite. Everything is so captivating and fast that you dont even realize when the 10 mins went by
you two complete each other now make up
Thought the same thing
Means it accomplishes its goal of inducing anxiety in the viewer, the higher the pressure gets the sooner you want it to end.
Dude became a legendary meme
"Jesus Christ, that's Jason bourne"
Lmfao
"Jason Bourne, that's Jesus Christ"
how we all aspired to be introduced to other people... 🤣
"Jesus Christ, that's Jesus Christ!"
I haven't seen an action thriller of this quality since I saw this one. Top tier filmmaking.
Sky fall was pretty damn good. Also, Winter Soldier has an extremely similar feel and tone to the Bourne series. Winter Soldier is probably the closest.
Indeed, good, but I now think Sicario 1 & 2 now are best.
@@grahamstannard1243Sicario is a fantastic series. The first is one of the most underrated films of the last decade.
@@grahamstannard1243 Sicario is my fav thriller of the 2010s. I was on the edge of my seat throughout the whole movie.
@@MatthewMedina-b7l underrated in that it won a bunch or awards and nominations? It’s not underrated at all.
Relying on UK public transport was surely Bourne’s gutsiest move.
lemme tell you that scene would not be possible in america, at least on the west coast, maybe LA is the exception, but we have poor transit, especially during peak hours
If it was Southern Rail, they would still be shooting the movie.
blue hood guy be like "the fuck did i do"
Ah, oh yes, I had a hoodie up.
Like being an Irishman in England in the 70's.
Yeah, they never follow up on what happened to blue hood guy.
Bourne just used this random guy as a decoy, sucks to be you. 😂
In a police state, that's any one of us.
@@jamesgates1074 most likely when they found out he was talking to Bourne instead of blue hood guy they dumped him in an alley somewhere before he even woke up. Who is going to believe his story anyway?
I love how they used Waterloo station, i used to work near there so was great to see it immortalized in a film like this
Poor Paddy Considine: you'd probably still be alive if you'd only stayed on your line.
Should have stayed in Sandford with Nicholas Angel.
Wait wait wait wait, that’s the House of the Dragon KING????
Should have brought his dragon - oh, right, his died early...
who else noticed wh smith but no wh smith in usa?
Absolutely classic scene from start to finish! The tension, the pacing, the music... Absolutely everything is on point!
And the idiot not following simple directions like he knows who is and is not after him in disguise.
The Bourne series fan Assemble.
Assemble!
I’m literally the biggest fan of Bourne! Can’t wait for the new film
Hell yeah!!!!
@@YuNgHaSaN Wait, what? there is a new film coming up?
@@devansh5562 No he is trolling
When Jason Bourne says to you 'stay in line' then you FUKING STAY IN LINE !!!
But you can't stay in line if the screenwriter goes "eh, I don't know what to do this character, better kill him off"

CHEESY CRUST! thats jason bourne!
Shit just got real. This right here is the pinnacle of Bourne's supremacy. No matter how many times I watch this scene I still get goose bumps.
"Get some sleep, Pamela... you look tired."
What about that scene?
@@OliverTristmight be my favorite line
The book is much better.
the bourne is always supremest before the jason
9:41 That's what we came for here, fellas !
hahahahahahahaha i was just looking for this part.
One of my all time favorite trilogies. God I hope they don't remake this. Please leave this one alone, Hollywood!
All they got to do is activate the " asset"😂😂
You know there is action when the CAMERA IS SHAKING
I don't know why, but "Why aren't we hearing this?" is cold
We totally need another Jason Bourne movie, and then another, and another ...
I agree but Matt Damon isn't getting younger again he's closer to 60yrs than 40 yrs 😭😭
Robert McCall (Equalizer) Jason Bourne, John Wick and Bryan Mills (Taken) together... is much hoped-for than a new Avengers movie.
What's the name of the movie john wick is from again?

Yea me too.
There are much worse things that one need do. Enjoy!
LOL! i watched all five.

this movie was so damn good. damn i miss this type of movies
English not your first language
This was a great action/ espionage trilogy...
I'm still a nerd for Ludlum's books and would like to see a version following the original story line...
either way... great acting, directing, cool cinematography & ultimately very rewatchable.
I just love watching these highly-trained agents walk straight into Jason Bourne's boot before they have any idea what's happening. 😁
What a great sequence in amazing film. One of a few fime where 1 2 and 3 are all as good as each others, personally 2nd was my favourite
after watching jason bourne, i make my bed and pack my stuff to my bag very quick
Jason Bourne script must include:
CIA Chief: Zoom and enhance on camera two... Jesus Christ! That's Jason Bourne!
Every damn movie. 😂
Tension in this scene is unreal! Some damn fine cinema.
MASTERPIECE sequence on every level. Period.

Forever GOATed Bourne trilogy scene
Noah vosen: "what the hell was that!?"
Agents: "Sir, we've lost all communication with mobile one."
I watch them all the time can't wait for Jason Bourne 6
"Where the hell did he get another phone" 😅
Must be five steps ahead when dealing with Jason Bourne, expect anything, anytime from that gamechanger.

Watched all his movies its was the bomb 💥😁💃
In the Movies: It's Jason Bourne
In the real life: Let's go to TALK with the Dictator Maduro!!!
One of the greatest franchises
Love this scene. Feel sorry for the poor guy in the blue hoodie, but overall it's an A+.
I do like that grab team c are so focused on their task they walk right past the agency’s primary target
This scene still hits for all the right reasons.
Let me hear you say it, "Maaaaattttt Daaammmon!"
King Viserys didn't want to be king. He just wanted to report on the palace intrigues.
Some of the most intense walking ever captured on film 😅
God they had such a great story line in this trilogy. Wish they’d have stayed closer to it than what they did in the other movies
The Pistol whip at the end😯 that was dope
I love that a security expert watch this and was like…all plausible
Parabens. Trilogia incrivel.
احببته اشكرك صديقي ❤❤❤❤ باقي الاجزاء ان امكن 😊

get hooked.
Each time I’m tensed in a crowded place I tie my shoes.
Lol, love how they titlesd the video "It's Jason Bourne," when he didn't even say that. He says "that's Jason Bourne."
There's some really nice shops in Waterloo Station.
I need more sequels.
He was born to be Bourne!
"Jesus christ. That's Jason Bourne."
🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤
It's incredible that the next line isn't "shut down, we're over our heads here"
Every video game I play I make Jason Bourne as a character
Need the next movie in this series
Matt Damon returns
Fantastic trilogy!!!!
And no one talks about the fourth one - “Jason Bourne” (2016) - Matt Damon, or the almost non-canon one “Bourne Legacy” (2012) - Jeremy Renner, which is a better movie than the third.
Probably the best oF its genre,🔥

I would!

Why not??? He is not 007!!!
Its Jason Bourne 😲
Matt Damon is great but David Strathairn- makes the movie adding Tension-such a great foil.
Right? Every hero needs a villain who is his equal (whether that's from matching skills or resources the hero doesn't have).
The meme of the decade
Me often walking in public with handsfree feel like Jason.
Any other movie recommendation that gives the same feels as jason bourne?
