Jason Bourne's girlfriend gets killed. He swears to take revenge. Will he succeed or will he die trying? That's the story of this mindboggling energetic hardcore sequel. Acting is great, but much darker than in the first Bourne movie. Jason Bourne looks like a drug addict, with his dark eyes and pale white face. Matt Damon really did everything to make this performance feel like the last in the series. It wasnt. 3 more sequels would follow. But in this second performance Matt Damon excells in catatonic acting. You gotta see it to believe it. What I mean by catatonic acting is his depressed suicidal assasin look, which is very convincing. "The Bourne Supremacy" truly is hardcore stuff. The darkest and most energetic sequel in the entire series.Director Paul Greengrass restrained the use of the shaky cam in this sequel. Unfortunately he went overboard with that same shaky cam in the third Bourne movie. But in this movie the shaky cam really enhanced the feverishness of the action.Looking at the action, which is the main reason everyone wants to watch these movies, I really admire the exhilarating car chase. They dont come much better than this. This is truly feverish, exhilarating hardcore stuff. Editing, soundtrack and photography effortlessly blend into one contineous rampage of cars colliding into eachother. Action just does NOT stop. What a thrill. Mind you, there were no special effects during the car chase. No cgi, nothing. The real deal.The fight sequences were fascinating as well. Matt Damon uses an asian martial arts technique when he is fighting with nothing but just a rolled up magazine. Sounds soft? Not so, Matt Damon and his opposite actor tried it out on eachother before the take and were left with real life bruses. Following the bruises Damon even managed to accidentally knock out his opponent. This true to life portrayal of brutal chases and fight scenes really makes this sequel stand out.To summarize: YOU GOTTA SEE THIS. Acting is great, Action is great, Suspense is great, Soundtrack is great, Photography is great, Editing is great, Story is great. Really. I just cant enough of it!

In tech years, the Bourne Supremacy was ages ago, in fact it was released the same year Facebook was launched believe it or not. Here Jason had no access to Google maps, smartphones (not even a Blackberry lol!!) and so on. Yet he managed to use his brains, braun and IT skills to amazing effect in this blockbuster.I loved the scenes in Russia and India. I wish the DVD had deleted scenes of how Bourne and Marie got used to using the Indian toilet if you know what I mean. Anyway, Goa is a beautiful spot although there are too many Western tourists, so kind of like Bali if you know what I mean. Danny Zorn gets knifed sadly, just as he uncovered Abbott's scheming ways to frame Bourne.

The Bourne Supremacy is my favorite Bourne saga, but it's still not a movie I liked as much as I wanted, as I'm not a fan of the saga, but the film is better than the first, Paul Greengrass does a good direction, He is very competent in the directing scenes, and he manages to make the actors have good performances, especially Matt Damon who is always good as Jason Bourne, the script is also better, has fewer problems, and the rhythm of the movie is better, I thought The first one very tiring at times, the movie also has more action than the first one, and it's good, it has interesting dialogues, but it was not the movie that I expected, I thought some of Bourne would be on the list of my favorite action films , Unfortunately have passed away, but just like the first, many people will like. Note 7.3

After Bourne Identity, I was expecting that sequel to be as good and I'm not deceived. It has achieved to make me definitely love the saga.Jason Bourne is back but against his wishes. When the woman he loves got killed by a CIA assassin, he decides to go after them just like he promised at the end of the first movie.As expected, Bourne Supremacy is a bit darker than the first opus. We are introduced to new characters like Pamela Landy, a CIA station chief who is in charge of an operation related to the first mission accomplished by Bourne. When this op fails with the death of two men and Jason's fingerprints are found on the scene, she is tasked with taking him down. That's the beginning of a long series of twists which uncovers a much larger conspiracy within the CIA.Thankfully what makes the first movie so great, the thrilling action, is still there and so masterfully filmed once again. I'm truly amazed by its choreography which is perfectly timed and efficient. Knowing that Matt Damon was making his own stunts, it's truly impressive. I can't even imagine how much time he trained to reach that level of perfection.Keep it comin'!
