The Bourne Supremacy [HD DVD]

Good enough to suggest long-term franchise potential, The Bourne Supremacy is a thriller fans will appreciate for its well-crafted suspense, and for its triumph of competence over logic (or lack thereof). Picking up where The Bourne Identity left off, the action begins when CIA assassin and partial amnesiac Jason Bourne (a role reprised with efficient intensity by Matt Damon) is framed for a murder in Berlin, setting off a chain reaction of pursuits involving CIA handlers (led by Joan Allen and the duplicitous Brian Cox, with Julia Stiles returning from the previous film) and a shadowy Russian oil magnate. The fast-paced action hurtles from India to Berlin, Moscow, and Italy, and as he did with the critically acclaimed Bloody Sunday, director Paul Greengrass puts you right in the thick of it with split-second editing (too much of it, actually) and a knack for well-sustained tension. It doesn't all make sense, and bears little resemblance to Robert Ludlum's novel, but with Damon proving to be an appealingly unconventional action hero, there's plenty to look forward to. --Jeff Shannon

The Bourne Supremacy [HD DVD] Reviews

He's not Bond who relies on potential gadget.He has that cleverness to think on his feet, improvise, make up a plan, and execute it with unbelievable talent, using nothing but what's in front of him. Jason has got to get to his young woman's apartment to say sorry. Joan Allen brings that cool, cerebral intelligence to the part of Pamela Landy. The car chase is magnificent.

It is about desperation. That was his only aim in that moment. "The Bourne Supremacy" takes us to real places in Europe like Berlin where the East-West conflict was focused; to Moscow, a place of uncertainty and peril and good fortune and to Goa, India's most charming of state capitals.

She's a worthy opponent for Bourne. Matt Damon has got all the Bourne elementsgreat actions, really cool ability, a great sense of immaculate timing and a little bit of understanding thrown in too. Demon's instincts are profound where the given character is actually very gloomy.

Jason Bournean ex-CIA agent infused with violence, is a man who's killed people in cold blood.And yet you feel he's at war with himself. Jason, is above all, emotionally truthful.That's what director Paul Greengrass have done here.It's that feeling of realism, of truthfulness. Bourne is an intelligent guy.

Hunka Hunka Burning Love movies of Bourne. It was excellent movie. A lot of actions. Thanks. I love this movie.

The Bottom Line:. A rather middling sequel to The Bourne Identity which suffers from the loss of Chris Cooper and Clive Owen (as villains) and Franka Potente (as love interest), the Bourne Supremacy is only supreme when it comes to mediocrity.

On the other hand, the director's commentary is absolutely awful. Definitely not a model for other filmmakers. He says virtually nothing about the actual making of the movie. Why buy the HD DVD version. Good question.

Some of the Special Features on the HD DVD are pretty interesting, including features on the car chase in Moscow and the explosion at the house in Berlin. I was extremely disappointed. If you already own an upconverting DVD player, you probably won't notice much difference in the picture quality. He does nothing but tell you what's going on in the movie and what he believes are the characters' motivations. You all know this film.

You would think that after the first one or the second bourne, this might go boring but let me just it was FANTASTIC
