It's been so long since I've watched The Borune Identity that I forgot who some of the minor characters were in this one. My main reason for wanting to dust this one off is because I'm still suffering from a Julia Stiles withdrawal after her awesome performance in Dexter (http://pennycan.createaforum.com/dvd's-blu-rays/dexter-(season-5-2010)/msg8080/#msg8080). anyway, I had totally forgotten that Walter Goggins and Clive Owen were in this one and I didn't even realize that Gabriel Mann was in this one at all. He is currently best known as Nolan in Revenge (http://pennycan.createaforum.com/tv/revenge-(season-1)/msg3701/#msg3701).

As for the movie itself, I thought it was a kick ass movie when it first came out. Very down and dirty or the anti-James Bond, if you will. Matt Damon really solidified his status in Hollwood with this one and the subsequent sequels. But having just now watched this, the film as a whole, kind of feels a bit light compared to what is currently the norm for action films and the ending didn't really satisfy me this time around. The entire movie was building to this epic showdown that we never really got. It's still a great movie and definitely worth a Rent, even though I own this edition.

I think Jeremy Renner will do just fine. (http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i266/Chiprocks1/Smilies/0%20All%20Smilies/ThumbsUp.gif)
