The story is told over the course of the films. "Bourne's" background, who he worked for/served, and how the story began when/where it did. This film; "Bourne" failed his assassination mission and was subsequently shot, that's how he lost his memory. Not necessarily by being shot, but add in the trauma from being adrift in the ocean/sea potentially suffering hypothermia, and add in the psychological trauma that may have caused while he was unconscious. "Treadstone"/"Black Briar" are the names/titles for government "black ops" programs. This would be the U.S. C.I.A. type of agency being portrayed. Regardless of knowing or not knowing "Bourne's" amnesia, or whether they believe it or not, "Bourne" failed his mission and there are too many questions surrounding both his failed mission and everything following "Bourne's" return to Germany/France, the police in the park, the bank, the Embassy. "Bourne" is a liability, that's why the Agency is looking to clean up the mess. The series is worth the watch. There are 5 total movies. The first three with Damon are the core of the series. They could have ended there. Then they made the fourth film without Damon. It stars Jeremy Renner. It's a bad film and there's absolutely zero explanation by the studio as to why this movie was made. Other than it would make heeps of money riding the coattails of the Damon films. However, watch it anyway. May as well so you can ask the same question..."Why?". The fifth film is Damon kind of cleaning up the mess the fourth film shat upon the original trilogy. But it is better than the Renner debacle. And it gives even more back story to "Bourne" and the programs run by the Agency. All in all, worth the watch.
😢DAWN,, With your love for Clint Eastwood movies,, Her are 2 MUST SEE Classics starring him,, That are BOTH much different than what you are used to,, "Kelly's Heroes" (1970) And only 1 year later,, "The Beguiled" (1971) It is described as an "American Southern Gothic Psychological Thriller"..I KNOW that you will enjoy both my movie lovin' sister!!...And as always,, I will definitely be looking forward to your reactions. ❤

This was a good breakdown of the ending and why Ward did what he did. Hopefully Dawn finds this useful. If she has more questions from this, I hope she asks, then we can answer.
@@ashflame6888 - yeah, she spends the first half talking over all the dialogue while trying to predict the film's outcome. And then she spends the second half of the film repeating the phrases, "I don't get it. Who is that? What's happening? I don't understand. Am I missing something?".
You never understood that since the CIA didn't know he lost his memory, they thought he went rogue. And a man of Jason's ability is extremely dangerous to the 'agency', particularly those that sent him. These guys don't fail, particularly Jason Bourne.

Dawn, the little red Mini Cooper they were in, is LEGENDARY. It's beloved by petrolheads the world over. It's super tiny, nippy AF, and super agile. It's a BEAST of a car, despite having a tiny engine. All of the stunts here would 100% have been done live, in a Mini Cooper. It's BECAUSE it's so agile, that they could zip through heavy traffic.

Loved the original novel. Was my first (I believe) Ludlum novel and I remember how thrilled I was because it took quite a while in the novel before one got to know who he really was and what was behind the whole thing.

@@ecbenson98 - Yeah, I bet you WOULD watch a full length film with nothing but Matt Damon fishing. Probably have to use both hands though... your right would get tired after an hour or so.
I'm glad that you enjoyed this, Dawn. You need to watch, "The Bourne Supremacy" and "The Bourne Ultimatum" these are all great films which continue the story.
Like Dawn none of the Scots will be able to rem anything or anyone. And like Dawn they are still trying to figure out how cameras work and what a computer is. So ten minutes after they meet you your not even a memory...drink can do things like that....and in Scotland a sober person without a beer can is called an Englishman. The Scots would have conquered the world if they only knew where to find it. Yes...hide in Scotland..as it said in Cheers..where nobody knows nobodys name!
Another absolute MUST SEE Classic that was WAY ahead of it's time & also starring legendary comedic genius "Don Knotts",, "The Incredible Mr. Limpet" (1964)..Soooo Good!!
One thing that always gets me is that in all the Bourne movies, he never wears a disguise. He has every spy agency around the world looking for him, YET makes no effort to look different...no beard, no dyed hair, and still, they can't catch him!
The Bourne Trilogy of Identity, Supremacy and Ultimatum are outstanding films. Matt Damon is superb throughout, brilliant plots and super pace in each film. Here we have the start of this brilliant action packed, entertaining film. You gotta do The Bourne Supremacy and Bourne Ultimatum, they are equally fantastic.
The guy who played the African fellow was also in the fantastic HBO prison series Oz, where he played the role of Simon Adebisi, also an African man. The secret how his little hat could stay at the side of his head without falling down, is still a mystery studied by scholars, mystics and physicists alike. It defied all the known laws of the universe.
It’s true that you can pay anyone to do anything. I went to a Who concert in 1989 just outside Boston, and there was this British couple that had flown to the US from England to see them perform but they didn’t have tickets. I ran into them two different times, and each time they were paying a security guard to get through the next checkpoint.
@@BenjWarrantYes. His books are great but I find them really difficult to get into bcz of the way he writes. Also I m not a native English speaker which makes it even more difficult. Not to mention my Reader's Block 😢
Jason is the best assassin out of all global assassins that work for treadstone. A CIA organization. Prior to amnesia, Jason used one of many aliases (michael kane) to inquire about a yacht for sale (wombosies yacht) to find its location and kill Wombosie. He failed because of the kids and the bullets/cold seawater gave him amnesia. Jason is learning all of this throughout the film. In the meantime, treadstone knew they had a failed wombosie mission and couldn't figure out why their glitch (Jason bourne) was being sighted everywhere... safe houses and banks, etc. They set out to kill the glitch (Jason bourne) using other assassins they own and also finish the Wombosie job. Jason basically gVe treadstone an ultimatum to quit following him. Now you're set up for the next movie.
@@SGTMARSHALL1 You make a fair point there. It was more of an angry lunge, so I'll give you that. 🤣 But..... Pesci did lead the way in writing implement attacks, so in some ways he paved the way for all these other guys.
One of the hallmarks of this series is how realistic and grounded they are, very smart writing and smart plots, they don't patronize the viewer, top tier entertainment
I read the book, and saw the movie, and it irritated me. He wakes up after having been shot, with nothing other than a safe-deposit box number. He opens up this box that he doesn't remember what was in it, and its full of money, passports, and guns. I can't telll you how many times I've found a box I'd put away in my attic or basement and mot remembered what was in it. And it's never been full of money. It's just not fair.
**Dawn sees tiny thing that needs to be viewed under a magnifying glass** "It's massive! Imagine having that stuck in your body!" not a size queen apparently
8:18 "Imagine having strong enough fingers to hold on like that." Sounds like some Jackie Chan films need to be slipped into her spy-movie schedule. (At the least: "First Strike", "Supercop", and/or "Who Am I?")
@@THOMMGB The three I mentioned had the benefit that Chan was an agent on a spy mission. That helped narrow down the *enormous* number of choices. In particular, "Who Am I?" could be considered a light-hearted version of the "Bourne Identity", since Jackie's character has amnesia.
Early in the video, "I can't see the two the them together." "He isn't interested in you." 15 minutes later, "DO IT! DO IT!" "Kiss her back! YAY!" Fun movie. But your reaction had me thinking you were very confused on a LOT of major points. (especially, "who knows what")
LOVE that yer getting to this one, Dawn. Of course there is the 'kinda' alt version to this (non-boy movie version), Luc Besson's La Femme Nikita (1990), and it's American remake, Point Of No Return, with Bridget Fonda. Both worthy additions to your awesome channel :)
"love the word Assassin cuz it has the word ass in it twice" brilliant, you made my day . yes I am a subscriber, greetings and best wishes from Monterrey Mexico.
in the novels on which the Bourne movies are based, Conklin is actually his trusted friend who assisted him in his missions, not the one portrayed here....
Thanks Dawn Marie for spotting the bag full of flowers at the end; I never noticed that in any of the dozen or so times I've watched the movie. You can go and have a pee now!
when Conklin denied that he sent jason to kill Wombosi, what he meant was that it's supposed to be secretive and unofficial and off the books, so to speak, he doesn't send him to kill, he sends him to be invisible. he does send him to kill, but they don't speak openly or directly of it, kinda like a politician. likewise, they refer to things as operations or missions instead of murders, even though that's what they really are.
Bourne was a special assassin sent to kill Mombosi, but lost his resolve when the kids were there. He was shot, and lost his memory while adrift at sea. There're more details in the rest of the movies but that's the gist of it. The department, Treadstone, that sent him was completely illegal, so had to cover up the whole thing when Jason failed, trying to kill him and then killing the former boss. The new boss started his new project, Black Briar, but that's for the next movie.
Listening to this and the first few minutes I hear it's massive and imagine having that inside you. I blame the Internet for where my mind has gone. Love the reaction and the accent
I read the book at some point in the ‘80’s and watched the 1988 tv version starring Richard Chamberlain: it was about halfway thru the video that I recognized the story and had the strange experience of remembering I had read the book.
Matt Damon in The Talented Mr. Ripley is amazing! It's such a masterpiece of a movie that is totally underrated. Such a shame that nobody reacts to it.
It's a great film, but that shot of the assassin popping into frame and diving out the window remains one of the most unintentionally funny scenes I've seen.
Atomic Blonde is fantastic. However, the plot is as convoluted as the three Bourne films put together, with much of it implied rather than shown or exposited. I wonder whether Dawn would appreciate it despite being even more confused than she is here.
16:43, No, Dawn..That model mini-cooper won the European off-road rally race two years in a row! The trick was the tires were wider than the car, there's an "Skid Plate" under the frame to prevent engine damage, it had a 4-way indie suspension, and it was very "Bottom Heavy" to keep it from flipping..still a few hundred of 'em on the road today! You're reactions are so fun...I loved this series.
You should shoot a gun with a silencer, an M4 with silencer ,..no cooler sound! There are questions you SHOuLD have, it’s why they did 5 total movies that will clear it up. You’ll love the rest the movies!
"I can't do that in my car" -- its got an electric handbrake. Long long ago when I got my license I took the driver's test in a manual transmission car. Parallel parking and everything; it impressed the hell out of the officer judging me. I earned extra points for that. I drive a PDK now (Porsche Doppelkupplungsgetriebe) but when my car was in the shop for a bit my brother let me drive his manual 90s era civic and it was AWESOME.
Dawn, if they gave you all the answers, they wouldn't get anyone to watch the sequels. LOL. The next 2 are really worth watching. It's not just action. It's an interesting story too.

Fun movie. But your reaction had me thinking you were very confused on a LOT of major points. (especially, "who knows what")
"We will both of us burn? That's not a sentence"
"You gave me too much - nobody ever says that"
This is why I love your reactions 😆
LOVE that yer getting to this one, Dawn.
Of course there is the 'kinda' alt version to this (non-boy movie version), Luc Besson's La Femme Nikita (1990), and it's American remake, Point Of No Return, with Bridget Fonda. Both worthy additions to your awesome channel :)
"love the word Assassin cuz it has the word ass in it twice" brilliant, you made my day . yes I am a subscriber, greetings and best wishes from Monterrey Mexico.
GOOD SHOW, mon cheri: "I like the word 'assassin ', because it has the word 'ass' twice in it."
in the novels on which the Bourne movies are based, Conklin is actually his trusted friend who assisted him in his missions, not the one portrayed here....
Ah, I've been looking forward to Dawn starting this trilogy
You have to admire Dawn's super power of stating the obvious a few seconds after it comes obvious
The movie where they pull someone out of the sea and turn them into a fisherman is called "Captain Courageous".
Thanks Dawn Marie for spotting the bag full of flowers at the end; I never noticed that in any of the dozen or so times I've watched the movie.
You can go and have a pee now!
when Conklin denied that he sent jason to kill Wombosi, what he meant was that it's supposed to be secretive and unofficial and off the books, so to speak, he doesn't send him to kill, he sends him to be invisible. he does send him to kill, but they don't speak openly or directly of it, kinda like a politician. likewise, they refer to things as operations or missions instead of murders, even though that's what they really are.
omg at 0:32 you can hear Dawns thoughts!!!
You will love Franka Potente (the co-star), in "Run Lola Run" (1999)
Great stuff Dawn. 2 and 3 are even better too!
l love the word assassin cuz it has the word ass in it twice
i just lost a kidney laughing .
@user-shè
Really? I just laughed my ASS off.
Bourne was a special assassin sent to kill Mombosi, but lost his resolve when the kids were there. He was shot, and lost his memory while adrift at sea. There're more details in the rest of the movies but that's the gist of it. The department, Treadstone, that sent him was completely illegal, so had to cover up the whole thing when Jason failed, trying to kill him and then killing the former boss. The new boss started his new project, Black Briar, but that's for the next movie.
Love this film. Looking forward to you reacting to the series
I agree. It really was a good run for Matt Damon.
I always have the same thought about "swiping down the whole place for fingerprints."
I never noticed the red bag with the flowers before. Good catch.
I'm glad someone(you)is finally reacting to the Bourne collection!
Don't take this the wrong way, but you have the sense of humor of a 15-year-old boy. Every misheard word is something naughty. 😂
Yeah, I can't take it. It's just to childish for me. I tried because I like the movie in the series but I can't come back
Listening to this and the first few minutes I hear it's massive and imagine having that inside you. I blame the Internet for where my mind has gone. Love the reaction and the accent
I thought i heard just a hint of John Candy in your
"Go to Jamaica (mon)." Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.
14:49 Yes. That's Julia Stiles. She was in Save the Last Dance (2001).
Drinking game: take a shot every time Dawn says "Jamaica" 🤣
Why do I now want to visit Scotland! You’ll love the next 2. Hope to see those reactions soon.
Dawn,
I've been to Scotland and had the Best time ever!! Everybody looked (at the strange American) and everybody cared, (about me).
"Ronin" (1998)
"The November Man" (2014)
"R.E.D." (2010)
"Central Intelligence" (2016)
"The Eiger Sanction" (1975)
"The Mechanic" (2011 remake)
I read the book at some point in the ‘80’s and watched the 1988 tv version starring Richard Chamberlain: it was about halfway thru the video that I recognized the story and had the strange experience of remembering I had read the book.
A gun with a silencer goes BANG! It isn't a lot quieter than one without.
Matt Damon in The Talented Mr. Ripley is amazing! It's such a masterpiece of a movie that is totally underrated. Such a shame that nobody reacts to it.
Clive Owens character wore glasses. I was told, as a glasses wearer, that I was not eligible to be a secret agent.
One of my grandmas favourite series, i remember her watching these all the time as a kid! Glad you enjoyed it looking forward to the rest :)
It's a great film, but that shot of the assassin popping into frame and diving out the window remains one of the most unintentionally funny scenes I've seen.
@27:19 Bourne reaches down and places a magnetic tracker on the van. He then traces it to their HQ.
If you haven't seen it, "Atomic Blond" is much like this, with a 20 min-long fight scene that had no breaks in filming it.
How quaint you should think that. It's 7 minutes and is composed 40 separate shots. Just very nicely put together.
Atomic Blonde is fantastic. However, the plot is as convoluted as the three Bourne films put together, with much of it implied rather than shown or exposited. I wonder whether Dawn would appreciate it despite being even more confused than she is here.
16:43, No, Dawn..That model mini-cooper won the European off-road rally race two years in a row! The trick was the tires were wider than the car, there's an "Skid Plate" under the frame to prevent engine damage, it had a 4-way indie suspension, and it was very "Bottom Heavy" to keep it from flipping..still a few hundred of 'em on the road today! You're reactions are so fun...I loved this series.
Think there's still more than a few hundred. My '74 Mk3 'Seamus' is a ton of fun in the bends.
FYI. Assassin comes from hashish. You can check the reason on internet.
And in Arabic hashish means grass
They found Richard Hannay (The 39 Steps) in Scotland. Well worth watching the Hitchcock verion.
You should shoot a gun with a silencer, an M4 with silencer ,..no cooler sound! There are questions you SHOuLD have, it’s why they did 5 total movies that will clear it up.
You’ll love the rest the movies!
This is one of those instances where the book and the movie are quite different but both are excellent
The first 3 are fantastic. 2 has a bit too much shaky cam, but 3 is really really good. This series basically redefined the action movie genre.
"I can't do that in my car" -- its got an electric handbrake. Long long ago when I got my license I took the driver's test in a manual transmission car. Parallel parking and everything; it impressed the hell out of the officer judging me. I earned extra points for that. I drive a PDK now (Porsche Doppelkupplungsgetriebe) but when my car was in the shop for a bit my brother let me drive his manual 90s era civic and it was AWESOME.
You may have seen her in Run Lola Run
"I've noticed that people that are lonely like to just sit an listen to people "
Gee thanks 😅😂😂
Dawn, if they gave you all the answers, they wouldn't get anyone to watch the sequels. LOL. The next 2 are really worth watching. It's not just action. It's an interesting story too.
Another awesome watch along.
She actually said the word, "realistic", as a comment about this movie.
