What the box says:  "A new action hero is Bourne!" (Access Hollywood)  Get ready for the explosive, action-packed hit with incredible fight sequences, starring Academy Award winner Matt Damon (Ocean's Eleven).  Pulled from the sea with two bullets in his back, Jason Bourne discovers he has the skills of a very dangerous man and no memory of his violent past.  Racing to unlock the secret of his own identity, he discovers the deadly truth: he's an elite government agent.  But to the government, Jason Bourne isn't just their property, he's a malfunctioning thirty million dollar weapon.  Lethally trained, built to disappear, he's an agent on the run who has to be taken out.  Now, the government's top operative has become its number one target, in a super-charged, thrill-a-minute spectacular loaded with "Non-stop action!" (Bill Zwecker, FOX-TV)
