Bourne Identity 
Main Actor(s)/Actresses: Matt Damon and Franka Potente
Memorable Supporting Cast: Chris Cooper, Clive Owen, Brain Cox, Gabriel Mann, and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje
Plot: Jason Bourne (Damon) is found floating in the water by a fishing boat in the Mediterranean Sea with two bullets in his back. The ship's captain takes the bullets out of his back also finds a capsule imbedded in Jason's skin. The capsule turns out to be a laser with a swiss bank account number that projects from it. When Jason wakes up he does not know who he is or what he does. He goes to the Swiss bank account box where he finds numerous passports and thousands of dollars. But, he still does not remember what he does and why he was in the sea. He and a stranger, Marie (Potente), embark on a dangerous quest to find out who he is, but somebody wants him dead.
Extra thoughts: This is a first in a trilogy of movies. It has action, guns, fights, car chases, and explosions. Damon and Potente do an excellent job acting. It makes you think and is a lot of fun to watch. I recommend you see the Bourne Identity. The rest of the trilogy, Bourne Supremacy and Bourne Ultimatum are must sees also.
