AS A nation, we are very patient people and waiting years for a sequel to a well-loved film is no exception.

From August 12-18, we have a double whammy of equally exciting, amnesiac adventures: Finding Dory and Jason Bourne.

With an epic battle at the box office, we can personally guarantee these two films have been worth the wait!

If you can believe it, it’s been a staggering 13 years since we were given the best and most relatable advice from a very forgetful fish: “Just keep swimming." With the release of the sequel to the Pixar classic Finding Nemo, the wait is finally over and this time it is Dory’s turn in the spotlight in this splash-tastic, hilarious adventure.

Finding Dory sees the eponymous blue tang finally remembering something extremely important! In a dream, she recalls being separated from her parents as a child. In a journey that takes her across the ocean, Dory, with the help of Marlin and Nemo, all embark on a quest to locate her missing parents. But her voyage was never going to go swimmingly, and Dory is captured and taken to a Marine Life Institute. But all hope isn’t lost and, by a stroke of luck, Dory learns she must save her parents from captivity for her dream of a family reunion to come true.

Can Marlin, Nemo and Dory’s new aquatic friends help her complete her quest and finally find home?

With his typical brand of gritty stares and deadly assassinations, Matt Damon returns in Jason Bourne. Ten years after the events in Bourne Ultimatum, the man of few words remembers everything from his past and remains in the shadows of society, making a living by partaking in illegal fighting rings.

But when former CIA operative, Nicky Parsons (Julia Stiles), breaches her post and tracks Bourne down, she makes it clear he still has a target on his back. The pair must fight to evade the CIA and end their dirty tactics once and for all.
