Movie Reviews of The Bourne Identity (TV Miniseries)

Movie Review: A fantastic movie
Summary: 5 Stars

The original Bourne Identity TV movie is simply fantastic. Sure, it does not have some of the new technology included in the newer Matt Damon version, but the original is truly an accurate representation of the excellent book by Robert Ludlam, which cannot really be said about the newer version. Richard Chamberlain and Jaclyn Smith are amazing. The international settings in Europe, combined with the New York scenes, as well as the exciting plot, make this a movie for global audiances. This is a movie to be enjoyed over and over again.

Summary of The Bourne Identity (TV Miniseries)

He goes by the name of Jason Bourne. Shot and left for dead, he is rescued from the sea not knowing who he really is... nor why he is so good at killing with cold-blooded proficiency. Attempting to overcome both the killers who continue to hunt him and the obstacle of his own amnesia, Bourne is determined to uncover his own mysterious past.

Though not as briskly exciting as the 2002 theatrical release, this earlier TV adaptation of Robert Ludlum's bestseller has distinct advantages over its big-screen counterpart. It's far more loyal to Ludlum's serpentine plot, boasts greater latitude of geography and character development (allowing Richard Chamberlain's fine performance in the title role), and rises above TV limitations to achieve a big-budget look and feel. Suffering from amnesia and forced to piece together his past as a world-class assassin, Jason Bourne (Chamberlain) enlists the aid of a Canadian economist (Jaclyn Smith), and this pairing of '80s miniseries mainstays remains consistently intelligent, well paced, and altogether respectable. Chamberlain and Smith have adequate chemistry (albeit somewhat shallow), and their dangerous adventure--and eventual romance--is played out against a dozen European locations. Incorporating more of Ludlum's interwoven subplots, this ambitious Bourne is a globetrotter's delight, with a spy-thriller identity all its own. --Jeff Shannon
