Good Action mixed with great story!

The biggest problem I had with The Bourne Supremacy was the cinematography. Too much hand-held close-ups!! I found myself wondering what was going on during the car chases rather than sitting back and enjoying them.
The good things about the movie are small but important. I like how Bourne's girlfriend dies at the beginning. When something like that happens in a movie, it really surprises me, plus it makes you more involved with the hero.
I also like how the story developed throughout the whole movie. Some movies are boring, because you don't have to think about what the movies about. In this it's never boring, because you're always putting pieces of the story line together. (and it's not too difficult to do)
One last thing that really stuck out to me was when Bourne said the F word. Some movies refrain from using this, but it made me believe his emotions in the movie. Words like frick, dang, etc. seem emotionless.
Overall, The Bourne Supremacy was very good and a definite buy. Maybe the cinematography will be better on a smaller screen, who knows. So, go see this at the theaters (sit far back) and enjoy it! 8/10
