DVD Reviews of The Bourne Identity (TV Miniseries)
DVD Review: A fantastic movie
Summary: 5 Stars
The original Bourne Identity TV movie is simply fantastic. Sure, it does not have some of the new technology included in the newer Matt Damon version, but the original is truly an accurate representation of the excellent book by Robert Ludlam, which cannot really be said about the newer version. Richard Chamberlain and Jaclyn Smith are amazing. The international settings in Europe, combined with the New York scenes, as well as the exciting plot, make this a movie for global audiances. This is a movie to be enjoyed over and over again.DVD Review: Fairly Faithful Adaptation of Ludlum's Best Novel
Summary: 4 Stars
After seeing Matt Damon as Jason Bourne, you may find this a bit slow, but it follows the novel better than most adaptations.
Richard Chamberlain's Bourne is more human, and more fallible, than Matt Damon's portrayal. You'll actually like this guy.
Check it out!
DVD Review: Bourne Identity 4 TV
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this movie after learning of it. Did not see the original showing on TV. What I like about this production is that it closely follows the book. The book was excellent.
If you liked the Bourne Identity book, see this movie. There are some little differences but the over all production is very good. I enjoyed it and perhaps you will too.
Just don't try to make a connection between this movie (or the books) and the Matt Damon movies. Other than some character names such as Bourne and Conklin, and even with that the story lines are completely different. The Bourne Identity (TV Miniseries)
DVD Review: Bourne Idenity
Summary: 4 Stars
This version of Bourne Idenity does not have all the "action" that is in the Matt Dameon version but this one explains a little better the "whys" at the end of the movie. Same story just told a little differently with less action and more emphasis on charactors.DVD Review: Best Bourne Ever....
Summary: 5 Stars
This is (to me) by far the best Bourne ever if you actually want to stick to the original Ludlum novel.The "new" Bourne with Matt Damon is a totally different movie for generation "Y". The pace, the believability and the european locations are fantastic. You really feel the 'tortured-ness' of Bourne(Richard Chamberlain)in his amnesiac role. Jacilyn Smith is beautiful, radiant and real too. If you liked the book-this is the closest thing to seeing it.
Description of The Bourne Identity (TV Miniseries)
He goes by the name of Jason Bourne. Shot and left for dead, he is rescued from the sea not knowing who he really is... nor why he is so good at killing with cold-blooded proficiency. Attempting to overcome both the killers who continue to hunt him and the obstacle of his own amnesia, Bourne is determined to uncover his own mysterious past.DVD Features:

Scene Access
Though not as briskly exciting as the 2002 theatrical release, this earlier TV adaptation of Robert Ludlum's bestseller has distinct advantages over its big-screen counterpart. It's far more loyal to Ludlum's serpentine plot, boasts greater latitude of geography and character development (allowing Richard Chamberlain's fine performance in the title role), and rises above TV limitations to achieve a big-budget look and feel. Suffering from amnesia and forced to piece together his past as a world-class assassin, Jason Bourne (Chamberlain) enlists the aid of a Canadian economist (Jaclyn Smith), and this pairing of '80s miniseries mainstays remains consistently intelligent, well paced, and altogether respectable. Chamberlain and Smith have adequate chemistry (albeit somewhat shallow), and their dangerous adventure--and eventual romance--is played out against a dozen European locations. Incorporating more of Ludlum's interwoven subplots, this ambitious Bourne is a globetrotter's delight, with a spy-thriller identity all its own. --Jeff Shannon
