	Author	Review
United States	Peter Debruge Variety	"This explosive reunion between Damon and director Paul Greengrass further reveals key secrets about Bourne’s origins, bringing its lethal protagonist as close as he’s ever likely to get to total recall."	POS
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"Matt Damon back in fun but forgettable action revamp. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of five)"	NEU
United States	Todd McCarthy The Hollywood Reporter	"Technically and logistically, Greengrass delivers everything you expect from him; there's no one better when it comes to staging complex, chaotic action amid the real life of big cities."	POS
United States	Robert Abele The Wrap	"This fourth entry (...) should represent, for those ready and able to separate popcorn mayhem from the grim realities of world headlines, a bruising and exhilarating ride."	POS
United Kingdom	Tom Huddleston Time Out	"'When the talking stops the film takes off, with a pair of bone-rattling chases set in Athens and Las Vegas (...) A bracing reminder of how fiercely efficient Greengrass can be, these scenes just about justify the existence of ‘Jason Bourne’. But, please, no more. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of five)"	NEU
United Kingdom	Tim Robey Telegraph	"Crisply businesslike, straight-down-the-line, it's the Bourne we know, and the Bourne the box office wants. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of five)"	POS
United States	Stephen Whitty New York Daily News	'Once the story drags Bourne out of retirement, it's just a bunch of fights and chase scenes, only occasionally interrupted by a few lines of dialogue. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of five)"	NEU
United States	Brian Truitt USA Today	"The movie is a by-the-numbers action film that's not nearly as strong as its Damon-led predecessors. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of four)"	NEU
United States	Eric Kohn IndieWire	"Jason Bourne adheres to an existing format so robotically that it never manages to surprise or engage for longer than the occasional passing moment."	NEU
United States	A. O. Scott The New York Times	"The thrill isn't entirely gone. It's just a little more subdued."	NEU
United States	Joe Morgenstern The Wall Street Journal	"Bourne used to be an anguished amnesiac. Now he remembers who he is, but this fourth episode of the franchise forgot to make him human"	NEG
