Run, Bourne, Run
By Deborah Netburn and Patrick Day
Times Staff Writers Jason Bourne doesn't come with a swanky tuxedo, an animal mascot or super powers. He's never been on the side of a lunch box, had a cartoon made of him or been the basis of a theme park ride. He's a stripped-down hero, a tormented killing machine and a throwback to the days before all our heroes became marketing ploys. Some may argue that he doesn't stand up to his cinematic forbears, but we say he's an action icon for our times. He takes the best of the heroes that have come before him, but leaves their kitschy trappings in the dirt. Forget all the hype: we love Bourne because he's the real deal. |
