Bourne Supremacy review
Daniel Corleone - wrote on 01/13/12
Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) and his girlfriend Marie Kreutz (Franka Potente) reside in India. CIA Deputy Director Pamela Landy (Joan Allen) runs a "buy operation", spending $3 million to purchase evidence exposing the mole within the agency who stole $20 million in allocation money seven years prior. Pamela questions Deputy Director Ward Abbott (Brian Cox) about "Operation Treadstone," the elite squad of covert CIA assassins in which Bourne was enlisted. It lacks a suitable antagonist to Bourne’s expertise, the killing of Marie was disappointing and the overall pace of the film is the worse from the franchise. Direction was decent and soundtrack apt for the scenes. It doesn’t however show a humane personality of Bourne, which he only proved at the final sequences of the picture. Bourne Supremacy in this critic’s mind does not surpass its precursor, nevertheless it is a decent action film worth viewing.
