This never really should have been made.
Apparently, Damon would never return to the Bourne series unless:
1) Greengrass was the director (with this dizzy inducing, silly frantic, hand-held camera work that makes it impossible to follow the action)
2) The script was good.
Well (1) was a bad idea and it failed on point (2).Why would Bourne have turned to a life of fist-fighting for money???
The plot was thin and pointless. But what's worse is that it rehashed a lot of things from the Bourne Supremacy and Bourne Ultimatum.
Really not worth seeing. The end is completely unsatisfying and it lacks the craftiness and intelligence of the Bourne Identity and others. Give it a miss. You won't be missing anything.

- A leading female close to Bourne from the previous films is shot dead by a sniper early (Supremacy)
- A lady inside the CIA starts with trying to hunt down Bourne, but eventually understands and helps him out (Supremacy and Ultimatum)
- Unnecessary car chase at the end (Supremacy)
- Fight was the main opponent ends up with Bourne just managing to strangle him before being strangled himself (ultimatum). - Senior CIA director up to his ears in "it" (ultimatum) ....etc...
