Could have been great.

Rating: 8/10 (24 July 2004)

Overall I was very pleased with The Bourne Supremacy. Unfortunately the shoddy camera work took away from the story and action scenes. I think the director was trying to make the action more frenetic with the hand-held camera aspect when all it did was make it annoying.
Matt Damon, Brian Cox and Julia Stiles ( albeit her's was limited ) all gave very good performances. The car chase through Moscow was one of the best I've ever seen. Matt Damon was especially good portraying the tortured soul of a man that was almost machine like when his training kicked in. He made it seem that when the training kicked in he lost all control of himself and only upon the threat being extinguished would he realize what he had done.
Overall a very good film, which is unfortunate as it could have been great.
