YesAsia Editorial Description

Matt Damon returns as amnesiac assassin Jason Bourne in this fast-paced follow-up to 2002's THE BOURNE IDENTITY. Forced out of hiding as the result of an attempt on his life, Bourne fulfills his earlier promise to wreak vengeance on his former CIA employers, some of whom may be in league with murderous Russians. Brian Cox and Joan Allen are both great as warring agency chiefs convinced Bourne orchestrated the murder of two of their own in a deal gone bad. Thanks to tense, gritty direction by Paul Greengrass (BLOODY SUNDAY), the plot stays tight, the characters believable, and suspense and thrills flow steady. Moody photography enhances the urban European locations, which--combined with handheld camerawork and fast editing--keeps the action realistic and CGI-free. Vividly capturing the fatalist flavor of Robert Ludlum's original novel, this is "globalism noir" at its finest. Franka Potente and Julia Stiles are back from the original, and the always dependable Marton Csokas shows up as one of Bourne's deadly fellow operatives. A rousing car chase through Moscow may outdo the ones in RONIN and THE FRENCH CONNECTION for visceral speed and length. As the icing on the cake, John Powell provides a menacing, ambient percussive score.

"This one has everything, starting with a knockout performance from Matt Damon in what may become his signature role..." - Peter, Travers (Rolling Stone Critic), Rolling Stone, 08/06/2004

"This gripping film also has an impressive cast....The movie belongs to Matt Damon, whose Jason Bourne is manly, exquisitely tough and oddly endearing." - Claudia, Puig (USA TODAY CRITIC), USA Today, 09/03/2004

"Fast, sharp and fun, THE BOURNE SUPREMACY is that rare thing: a film that provides the thrills of action-spectacle cinema without forcing the audience to feel like a roomful of idiots." - Mark, Olsen (Film Critic), Sight and Sound, 10/01/2004

"In the smash-and-grab-you-by-the-throat action flick THE BOURNE SUPREMACY, style is meaning and that meaning is fast, fast, fast." - Manohla, Dargis (Film Critic), Los Angeles Times, 07/23/2004

"Paul Greengrass puts you right there in the car with the characters....[The film has] a sense of claustrophobia and tension..." - Dalton, Ross (Entertainment Weekly Critic), Entertainment Weekly, 12/10/2004

"[A] skillfully distilled transcontinental chase that swaps action-movie waggery and video-game pacing for a jaw-clenching sincerity." - Premiere Staff (Premiere Staff), Premiere, 02/01/2005

"Get ready for one wild car chase after another in THE BOURNE SUPREMACY....This is an incredibly detailed and creative soundtrack that does a good job of enveloping the audience..." - Widescreen Review Staff (Widescreen Review Critic), Widescreen Review, 07/01/2006

Exciting actioner Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
"The Bourne Supremacy" features an ingenious plot and a terrific cast. Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) and the love of his life Marie (Franka Potente) have settled in Goa, India, hoping to stay out of harm's way. But harm has a way of finding Jason Bourne. After Bourne is blamed for a hit on two CIA operatives in Berlin, a Russian hired gun is sent to terminate him. Soon Bourne finds himself enmeshed again in international intrigue that takes him from Naples to Berlin to Moscow in an attempt to free himself of his pursuers.

Joan Allen and Brian Cox are brilliant as CIA honchos and Matt Damon does a nice job of adding nuance and color to his tormented action hero.

My one gripe about this film (and it is a fairly big one) pertains to the cinematic style adopted by director Paul Greengrass. He employs lots of handheld camera work and rapid-fire quick cuts. The intent of this approach is to create a visceral immediacy, giving the viewer the sense of being in the middle of the film's frantic action. However, the dizzying blur of visual images made parts of the film literally stomach-churning for me. Nonetheless, "The Bourne Supremacy" is a solid action film that I can recommend highly.
