Solid and entertaining Spy Thriller

Rating: 8/10 (28 July 2004)

I am now an overt Matt Damon fan. He plays this role beautifully as the confused and troubled Jason Bourne. Julia Stiles did a great job in her small roll, she is an excellent actress. I had high expectations for this film which normally means I'll be disappointed but I was not. I very much enjoyed this film and I liked the directing/editing style. However, I can understand why some find it difficult to follow or in the case of my wife a bit nauseating. I like the handheld camera style, for me it gives a film a more personal and realistic feel. This is certainly a worthy sequel to the Bourne Identity and worth seeing on the big screen. I look forward to part 3!
