The Bourne Identity
Matt Damon as an action star? If Ben Affleck can do it, why not, right?
Matt does a pretty good job. The role is very physical, and it shows that he's spent some time getting ready for the role. Jason Bourne is a pretty kick-ass guy, but he doesn't know who he is or why he was found floating in the ocean with two bullet wounds and a microchip wedged under his skin. Gradually he starts to put the pieces together, making "friends" of all sorts along the way - including a US Embassy full of US Marines - and finally figuring out who he is.
Overall, Damon does a good job, and the supporting cast do well as well. The story doesn't slow down, the action is great, and the effects are great. Go check it out.
