THE BOURNE SUPRAMACY
Featuring: Matt Damon, Franka Potente, Brain Cox, Joan Allen, Julia Stiles
Brief Synopsis: David Bourne gets angry and chases down the people in the U.S. government.
Comments: Regardless of what anyone said or what I read, I was going to see this film in the cinema after throughly enjoying the first one and reading all 3 very chunky novels. It is still a good show but perhaps not as great as the first because the expectancy level and surprise element was taken away in the same way that the Matrix series progressed. However it is still worth watching although my wife said that once the romantic link was broken, that made the film a lot less interesting for her. All the characters were again fairly believable by the decent acting. The fight scenes weren't for me as memorable as the first film, too close up for my liking, and whilst the car chase was again tricky, the same goes for that. I might have enjoyed it more if the sound system was a bit better as well. Slight plot picking - how does a man go from Italy to Germany by car without having his passport detected again?
Thing to learn from this film: Switching driving seats could save your life.
Rating: 6.75/10
