'Jason Bourne' (2016) Movie Review

Back in 2007, on the press trail stumping for The Bourne Ultimatum, the third in the then-trilogy of espionage actioners, Matt Damon appeared on The Daily Show. In the course of the conversation, the actor said he and director Paul Greengrass, who also helmed The Bourne Supremacy, joked that the next movie would be called The Bourne Redundancy. It’s been nine years, with an attempted franchise reboot sandwiched in the middle (2012’s lackluster The Bourne Legacy), but with the simply titled Jason Bourne, Damon and Greengrass finally delivered on that promise, in spirit if not in name.

Watch Matt Damon Clock A Dude In 'Jason Bourne' Trailer

Does the world need another Bourne movie? Probably not. But that doesn’t mean we’re not getting one, and that doesn’t mean I’m not going to watch the shit out of Jason Bourne when it drops this summer. That was going to happen anyway, but with the first trailer hitting the airwaves, and looking like what you hope to see from a movie about a badass amnesiac spy, I just might get excited for this one.

Super Bowl Spots For 'Jason Bourne,' 'Batman V Superman,' 'Captain America: Civil War,' And More

I was out of town to watch that boring ass Super Bowl, so this is a few days late, but, as usual, the big game played host to a number of promos for big upcoming movies. Some are imminent, others are a ways off, but there was some cool shit to be seen. Way more interesting than the game, that’s for sure. Hit the jump to see some of the best and brightest.
