Great Follow Up To Bourne Identity: Superb Act II

Rating: 10/10 (20 July 2007)

The Bourne Supremacy keeps the pace going with the first film, The Bourne Identity. We learn just a little bit more about Bourne this time around it and leaves you wanting more. I look forward to the series' next offering, The Bourne Ultimatum which is due out in two weeks from this posting.
In Supremacy, Bourne is framed as a patsy for money laundering crimes involving the ex-Treadstone boss played brilliantly by Brian Cox. Pamela Landy (Joan Allen, who is also superb) heads a task force for the CIA to bring Bourne to justice, but ends up discovering the truth about Cox and his partners in crime through Bourne's help.
Matt Damon is just as good in this film as Jason Bourne as he was in Identity. Supremacy does a great job keeping the same gripping story and mood without copying the first film. This and Identity are two of the best films in the spy genre. Give this series a look. Rating 10 of 10 stars.
