Bumpy ride and loud trunk. Help!

Hello all - The ride in my 2002 RSX has been incredibly bumpy lately even when driving over very small potholes and speed bumps. I can be going 10 MPH over a tiny pothole and the car feels like it's getting tossed in the air. The tires seem okay. I'm thinking it's shocks/struts? Thoughts?

Also, there is a loud banging noise coming from the trunk when I go over speed bumps. I looked back there and it doesn't seem like anything is loose. Any ideas? Any help is appreciated.

So it sounds like the upper support housing cushions are worn in the front struts.... makes a loud boom noise over bumps/potholes?
