Not far from the coast, in the Mediterranean Sea, Italian fishermen catch a young man with bullet wounds who does not remember his name, or who he is, or what happened to him. Thus begins the franchise about the adventures of CIA Special Agent Jason Bourne (Mat Damon). Films about Bourne, and four of them have been shot to date, have won their audience. Dynamic action about the life of a superspy, who is constantly on the verge between life and death, differs from the James Bond films in its realism.
Jason Bourne bit by bit restores his memory, trying to understand who he is and how he has so many unique abilities, which, coupled with excellent physical fitness, make him almost invulnerable. At first, he does not suspect that the hunt has already begun for him, but when he gradually remembers that he was once a high-class assassin, he comes to realize the gravity of his position. Films about Bourne tell about the work of a super killer, about Jason's confrontation with his "creators" - those who made him such, taught him everything he knows, and whose orders he once implicitly carried out, and otherssuper agents who aim to destroy him.
The film "The Bourne Identity" (directed by Doug Liman) opens quadrology. The CIA headquarters receives information about the failure of the operation to destroy the African leader. In order to avoid exposure and publicity, which threatens from the screens of Niqwan Vambrosi, the head of the Treadstone project orders the destruction of all information related to this attempt. It is not only about documents, but also about people. Among them is special agent Jason Bourne. Together with memory and danger that haunt the hero at every turn, love comes to him. And now the mercenary must save not only himself, but also make every effort to save the life of a person close to him.
The Bourne films follow-up to 2004's The Bourne Supremacy and 2007's The Bourne Ultimatum, which follow the adventures of a super-assassin CIA operative and were directed by Paul Greengrass. In each of them, he is forced not only to carry out the work assigned to him to protect the interests of the country, but also to constantly fight to save his life and those close to him. James finally learns his real name. He is David Webb, and he has only one desire - to disappear.
The film "The Bourne Evolution" (directed by Tony Gilroy), released in 2012, does not lose its sharpness and dynamism. Events in it develop in parallel with the actions in The Bourne Identity. Special agent Aaron Cross (Jeremy Renner), raised in the project "Outcom" of the US Department of Defense,who, unlike Treadstone, used specially designed pills to train his spies, becomes Jason's No. 1 enemy. In carrying out the tasks assigned to them, super spies play their own game, in which their life will be the winner.
The Bourne films were based on the Robert Ludlum trilogy. The final film of the franchise bears the title of the novel of the same name by Eric Van Lastbader, but is not an adaptation of it.
