The Bourne Supremacy A Worthy Sequel

Rating: 8/10 (19 June 2009)

The Bourne Supremacy is a worthy sequel from director Paul Greengrass whose admirable in making this giving audiences what they expect from one of these movies. Matt Damon is back as Jason Bourne and he continues to be the perfect choice for the role. Frank Potente also reprises her role as Bournes love Marie from the first film but her part in this one unfortunately is cut really short. The rest of the cast including Brian Cox, Gabriel Mann, Karl Urban, Julia Stiles, and Joan Allen are effective as the supporting characters in their limited screen time. The rest of the cast are good in their roles as well. The action/fight sequences and chases are well executed even though some of them can be a bit of a stretch. The movie had a steady pace mainly because of the action and the ending was fitting. Despite some flaws with character development and the lack of a more central villain, The Bourne Supremacy is definitely one of the better sequels out there. Overall this movie had just enough intense action, fist fights, chases, suspense, thrills, and exceptional performances by the cast especially Damon who makes this sequel worth the time to watch.
