JASON BOURNE | FAMILY MOVIE REVIEW INFORMATION FOR PARENTS AND KIDS

"JASON BOURNE"
(2016) (Matt Damon, Alicia Vikander) (PG-13)

QUICK TAKE:: Action: A former government operative continues trying to solve the mystery of his past while dealing with an ambitious CIA cyber ops specialist and her boss, the CIA director, who either wants him captured or killed.

PLOT:: It's been years since former CIA operative and assassin Jason Bourne (MATT DAMON) left that government agency's top secret, intelligence program and he's been off the grid ever since, making a living by earning betting money from street fights. His former black ops contact, Nicky Parsons (JULIA STILES), however, has hacked into the CIA database and uncovered files regarding a number of other black ops programs, including ones about Jason's past and his now dead father. CIA cyber ops director Heather Lee (ALICIA VIKANDER) gets word of that breach and shuts it down before the download is completed, and manages to convince her boss, CIA director Robert Dewey (TOMMY LEE JONES), that she should be put in charge of finding and bringing in Jason.
Dewey, who has a covert deal with tech CEO Aaron Kalloor (RIZ AHMED) to use his company's data mining for intelligence gathering and national security agrees to Heather's proposal. But his real intentions are to use a Hitman (VINCENT CASSEL) to kill Jason and others who threaten to undermine the agency's work. From that point on, Jason tries to stay one step ahead of Heather, Dewey and the contract killer who are all figuratively and literally gunning for him.

WILL KIDS WANT TO SEE IT?: If they've been into the previous "Bourne" movies they probably will.

WHY THE MPAA RATED IT: PG-13: For intense sequences of violence and action, and brief strong language.

I have subscribed to ScreenIt for more than a decade. I check in every week to take advantage of their amazing services. Not only does their site provide a glimpse of exactly what content a movie offers, I've found the “Our Take” reviews and ratings for each movie to be right on the money every single time. I've referred dozens of friends to this service because my #1 resource for deciding whether or not to show a movie to my kids, or to see one myself, is ScreenIt.com!

I signed up to get Screen It weekly reviews a long time ago, when my kids were young and I wanted to know more about movies before we went to a theater or rented. Now one child is in law school, other in undergraduate, and I still read the weekly Screen Its! It helps me know what my husband and I want to see or rent, and what to have waiting at home that we all will enjoy when my "kids" come home. I depend on Screen It reviews. They usually just present the facts and let me decide if the movie is appropriate or of interest for my family and me. Thank you for providing that service, Screen It!

I have 4 children who are now in college. I signed up for Screen It when my children were pre-teenagers. Often my children would ask to see a movie with a friend and I wished I could preview the movie prior to giving permission. A friend told me about ScreenIt.com and I found it to be the next best thing to previewing a movie. The amount of violence, sexual content, or language were always concerns for me and my husband as we raised innocent kids with morals. We constantly fought the peer pressure our kids received to see films that in our opinion were questionable. With the evidence we received at Screen It, our kids couldn't even fight us when we felt a film may have been inappropriate for them to watch. Thank you, Screen It. Continue to make this helpful service available to everyone, but especially the young parents.

Screenit.com is an amazing resource for parents, educators, church groups or anyone who wants to make an informed decision whether a movie is suitable for their viewing. The reviews and content descriptions are so detailed I am mystified how the reviewers can put them together.

I love screen It! I don't know what I would do without it. It is well worth the membership. Before we take our son to the movies we check it out on screen it first. Thank you SO much for making it. Keep up the good work & keep 'em coming!!!
