Putting aside that Jason Bourne is fictional, this false display of manliness reminds me of how my dad always said he couldn't take the Bourne movies seriously because Matt Damon looks like an honour roll student.

Also, the CIA was never scary because the individual agents are badasses, the individual agents have always been Ivy league educated preppy rich kids, who weren't the ones that would inherit their parents' companies. Like the CIA is scary for its institutional power, not because all the guys played rugby at Princeton for one semester. As dumb as that ad was, that Latina woman could probably take on most CIA employees from the 1970s in a fight. Like guaranteed most CIA employees have never physically overpowered a person they didn't drug.

      That's because after you watched them you were inducted into a government program, trained to be the ultimate killer and had all your old memories wiped

      I remember being surprised the one girl died because it was so out of nowhere.

        It was in the opening scene of the second movie, lol. The death was very "she's inconvenient to the plot, better kill her off ASAP".

          I thought she was going to come back as that death was so bullshit and abrupt!
