Genre: ACTION / ADVENTUREAmazon.com: Good enough to suggest long-term franchise potential, The Bourne Supremacy is a thriller fans will appreciate for its well-crafted suspense, and for its triumph of competence over logic (or lack thereof). Picking up where The Bourne Identity left off, the action begins when CIA assassin and partial amnesiac Jason Bourne (a role reprised with efficient intensity by Matt Damon) is framed for a murder in Berlin, setting off a chain reaction of pursuits involving CIA handlers (led by Joan Allen and the duplicitous Brian Cox, with Julia Stiles returning from the previous film) and a shadowy Russian oil magnate. The fast-paced action hurtles from India to Berlin, Moscow, and Italy, and as he did with the critically acclaimed Bloody Sunday, director Paul Greengrass puts you right in the thick of it with split-second editing (too much of it, actually) and a knack for well-sustained tension. It doesn't all make sense, and bears little resemblance to Robert Ludlum's novel, but with Damon proving to be an appealingly unconventional action hero, there's plenty to look forward to. --Jeff Shannon Customer Reviews: Rating:

Not all there
I was disappointed to find at least one
scene missing from the DVD. The scene
after Bourne kills the other Treadstone
agent. I keep thinking that there are
other scenes missing.
Others have listed the problems of the
shaky cameras and too close close-ups.
I wish to say I agree with their comments.
Part of the enjoyment of watching the
Bourne Identity was the relationship
between Matt Damon and Franka Potente.
Since they killed her off in the beginning,
they might have brought in someone else
for Damon to relate to.
Since there are more Bourne sequels in
the making, I hope someone is reading the
criticisms listed here and elsewhere and
tries to correct the problems. Rating:

A Fantastic Bourne Sequel...
Only rarely does a sequel equal its predecessor for entertainment value. Very loosely based on a Robert Ludlum novel, "The Bourne Supremacy" does that, with a breathless stream of action sequences featuring the amnesiac but lethal former CIA assassin Jason Bourne (again played with a pitch-perfect combination of restraint and intensity by Matt Damon).
As the movie opens, Bourne is hiding in a seaside village in India with his girlfriend Marie (Franka Potente from the first movie). He suffers from flashbacks of which he can make no sense, but he and Marie have built a life together.
Four thousand miles away in Berlin, a CIA black operation supervised by CIA Deputy Director Pam Landy (a cooly precise Joan Allen) goes sideways when a mysterious assassin intervenes. A fingerprint left behind leads Landy to Jason Bourne's identity. Landy will mount a major operation to hunt down Bourne, enlisting the aid of TREADSTONE veterans Ward Abbott (Brian Cox) and Nikki Parsons (Julia Stiles) from the first movie.
In India, the mysterious assassin from Berlin materializes to hunt Jason Bourne. He narrowly misses Bourne but kills Marie. A stoic Bourne returns to Europe on a collision course with the CIA and a shady plot involving a Russian oil magnate and a corrupt CIA insider. The action will spin from India to Italy to Berlin and finally to Moscow, where a thrilling car chase will bring Bourne face to face with his Russian nemisis.
The frantic, grainy, realistic cinematic style of the first movie is duplicated here, building suspense fasther than the viewer can worry about plot holes. The core of the movie is Bourne's relentless pursuit of his objective, slowed only by his struggle to make sense of flashbacks and the need to bandage the odd wound. The ending leaves plenty of room for additional sequels.
This DVD version contains some interesting extra features about the making of the movie. "The Bourne Supremacy" is highly recommended as an very entertaining action movie. Rating:

Bourne-again franchise
A great follow-up to the original and my favorite of the 3 thus far. One of those rare cases where the sequel surpasses it's predecessor:
-Better action and more suspense
-A Bourne character with more purpose and direction
-a more respectible "suit" on his tail played by Joan Allen
-Another worthy adversary in the form of Karl Urban.
-All around a slick spy movie! |
