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.

The Bottom Line:
A rather middling sequel to The Bourne Identity which suffers from the loss of Chris Cooper and Clive Owen (as villains) and Franka Potente (as love interest), the Bourne Supremacy is only supreme when it comes to mediocrity. |

| You all know this film. Why buy the HD DVD version? Good question. If you already own an upconverting DVD player, you probably won't notice much difference in the picture quality. Some of the Special Features on the HD DVD are pretty interesting, including features on the car chase in Moscow and the explosion at the house in Berlin. On the other hand, the director's commentary is absolutely awful. He does nothing but tell you what's going on in the movie and what he believes are the characters' motivations. He says virtually nothing about the actual making of the movie. I was extremely disappointed. Definitely not a model for other filmmakers. |

| You would think that after the first one or the second bourne, this might go boring but let me just it was FANTASTIC |
| SOLID FOLLOW UP TO THE ORIGINAL! | 2008-08-25 | 5 / 5 |

| Jason Bourne is a welcome change from the normal action movie hero! This is a no nonsense, highly efficient killing machine! As sequels go this is really good and is just as entertaining as the original. I had no problems with the camera work as some reviewers have pointed out. It's a fast paced, action film with an intelligent story! The DVD transfer looks great and this film was followed by a sequel! |
