This is a masterwork in pacing. Plot wise, little happens. Jason Bourne steals some files. Learns some secrets. Big deal. But the sequences, the chase through London’s Waterloo station, the footrace in and out of people’s flats somewhere in the Middle East, are the best of their kind. Brilliantly directed and edited. The most precisely exciting movie of the year.
