Matt
Damon
returns
as
amnesiac
assassin
Jason
Bourne
in
this
fast-paced
follow-up
to
2002's
THE
BOURNE
IDENTITY.
Forced
out
of
hiding
as
the
result
of
an
attempt
on
his
life,
Bourne
fulfills
his
earlier
promise
to
wreak
vengeance
on
his
former
CIA
employers,
some
of
whom
may
be
in
league
with
murderous
Russians.
Brian
Cox
and
Joan
Allen
are
both
great
as
warring
agency
chiefs
convinced
Bourne
orchestrated
the
murder
of
two
of
their
own
in a
deal
gone
bad.
Thanks
to
tense,
gritty
direction
by
Paul
Greengrass
(BLOODY
SUNDAY),
the
plot
stays
tight,
the
characters
believable,
and
suspense
and
thrills
flow
steady.
Moody
photography
enhances
the
urban
European
locations,
which--combined
with
handheld
camerawork
and
fast
editing--keeps
the
action
realistic
and
CGI-free.
Vividly
capturing
the
fatalist
flavor
of
Robert
Ludlum's
original
novel,
this
is "globalism
noir"
at
its
finest.
Franka
Potente
and
Julia
Stiles
are
back
from
the
original,
and
the
always
dependable
Marton
Csokas
shows
up
as
one
of
Bourne's
deadly
fellow
operatives.
A
rousing
car
chase
through
Moscow
may
outdo
the
ones
in
RONIN
and
THE
FRENCH
CONNECTION
for
visceral
speed
and
length.
As
the
icing
on
the
cake,
John
Powell
provides
a
menacing,
ambient
percussive
score.
