Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Anssi Vartiainen I still remember the first Bourne film fondly. It took the premise of James Bond, kept the larger than life spy thriller aspect intact, while bringing it closer to ground, so to speak. Instead of a suave English ladykiller gentleman, we have an amnesiac American, who feels much more an everyman. It was a good formula, and the film certainly left an impact.Which is why I'm pleased to say that the sequel comes pretty close to matching the original. The story picks up sometime after the events of the original. Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) and his girlfriend, Marie Kreutz (Franka Potente), have successfully evaded capture so far and are enjoying their life in India. That is until Bourne is once again pulled back into the world of espionage.I like that the film feels like it's continuing the story. So many sequels try to retell the exact same story, but in this it feels like they had a completely new story to tell. The events of the original are not ignored and the progression of both characters and events feels natural. Sure, there is a touch of maintaining the status quo, but not in a way that feels forced.The characters are also really good once again. I would have liked to see more of Marie, but that is largely made up by the presence of Pamela Landy (Joan Allen), a high-ranking CIA operative, who's looking for Bourne. Very much an MVP of the film.That being said, I have to admit that the original film had better action scenes and was sleeker all around. The action scenes in this are not bad, but the film suffers heavily from shaky-cam. Plus, the villains are paper thin and/or cartoonish. Not that the villains in the original very all that great, but they were at least passable.Nevertheless, if you liked The Bourne Identity, this is very much worth a watch.
Floated2 The Bourne Supremacy improves over the original as it picks up the pace and becomes more clever and action packed than the original. What it does more in this film than in Identity is seemingly less of a romance and love story, somewhat less talking and Matt Damon as Bourne is more bussiness and appears more comfortable playing the character this time around.The plot is similar to the original but here it feels more quicker pace as things occur right away. Perhaps a shorter run time made it feel better as some unnecessary scenes were cut or shortened. Overall, the Bourne Supremacy doesn't disappoint, as it improves upon the original and is a great action thriller full of twists and suspense.
Miguel Neto 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
Amy Edwards 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'!
