Verdict? Truly awful. The choreography for the fight scenes are laughable.
When a film contains a 'superman' who can take on a dozen men all at the same time, clearly we're entering into the world of fantasy and for the film to work it has to be played for laughs. The main problem with the film is that it took itself too seriously. Or rather Jason Statham played it too seriously. Statham has to be the worst actor in living memory, and seemed to be incapable of showing any expression or emotion in his cold, lifeless eyes. He just about gets away with it in, 'Oceans eleven' probably because he occupies so little screen time. To give you an example of Statham's acting in the film, in one scene his house is blown up. How are you going to feel if your house is blown up? Angry? Mildly irritated perhaps? -Not if you're Jason Statham. Having just seen his house destroyed and turned into complete rubble, his face doesn't register even the slightest muscle movement. He just can't act. Maybe, he should have watched Gene Hackman's turn in, 'Enemy of the State' when his house his destroyed for a few pointers. Even at the end of the film where he's reunited with his love interest, you'd think if there was ever an opportunity to smile and show a bit of life, this was it. What does he do? Same static, lifeless expression. Painful.
Given that the whole premise of the film is that Statham is the best 'transporter' there is, transporting packages from one location to the next, no questions asked, you'd think there'd be a few good car chases to demonstrate why he is supposedly the best. And is there? Not, in this film.
Badly acted. Badly written. Badly choreographed. Truly awful.

Verdict? How does it compare to the Bourne Identity? BS is a darker film, but certainly has more humanity. One of the most pivotal moments in the film involves a touching scene in which Jason faces up to the ghosts in his past by confronting the daughter of one of his previous 'kills.' He recognises the need to know and understand-that the truth however unpleasant is the only thing that can truly define who we are. The assassinated man's daughter needs to know the truth and Jason needs to tell her. As Jason's fragments of memories continue to filter down through flashback and revealed information, you can see the healing process at work even clearer as he staggers through the necessary sequence of denial, acceptance, and finally responsibility, from which he can only emerge a stronger person.
Immediate impressions as I left the cinema? Plenty of car crashes. Julia Stiles looks beautiful. Russian police cars frankly are RUBBISH! And does Mr Jason Bourne ever get any sleep??
I enjoyed it. 8/10
