Rating: 8/10 (13 September 2004)

Normally a sequel isn't as good as the original movie. Sometimes it is just awful. I'm glad that to every rule there is an exception. This movie is just as great as the first one and I can only hope that the third part, which will certainly come, will be even better.
The Bourne Supremacy starts where the Bourne Identity ended. Jason Bourne is trying, with his new girlfriend, to start a new life in Goa, India. Every night he is bothered by the same nightmare, not knowing what it is all about. All he knows is that it has something to do with his first assignment and that it all happened in Berlin. Then everything starts all over again... They are being chased down and after a while his girlfriend gets killed, but Bourne knows to escape... He starts his journey to and through Europe, trying to find answers and peace.
If you hated The Bourne Identity, you better don't watch The Bourne Supremacy. In fact it is just more of the same... Does that mean it is boring? No, not at all. There is a lot of action, nice car chases, a lot of suspense... exactly what you need when you want to have a nice evening with some friends. The director has created an exciting action thriller, who sure will please the viewers who are not looking for a philosophical and didactic movie. This is just plain fun. I give it something in between a 7,5 and an 8.
