Amazon.co.uk Review
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

 Tremendous entertainment October 22, 2008
James Bond is for children. Jason Bourne is for adults with childish fantasies of being a secret agent. All the Bourne movies are fantastic entertainment even though Matt Damon looks like he is about to drop a load in his trousers at any time. Wholeheartedly recommended.
8/10.
 Good film - better than 1st - but the Ultimatum is best. October 4, 2008
This film, I thought was much better than the 1st one produced. However, the Bourne Ultimatum is the best. Make sure you see them all in order though. But a great film to watch.
 The fastest of the three with some new themes in the soundtrack - but get the box set May 28, 2008
These red-cover editions were supposed to be extended but they weren't. That's the reason the "blue covers" stayed collectable. Supremacy is the excellent fast chase film with barely any lulls or wasted words and the soundtrack by John Powell has the largest amout of new material to accompany the theme.
So avoid these red cover copies for the first two films and just buy them in the double box with the sky blue cover OR the very last DVD Box set with a black cover. Now that Matt Damon's doubtful to star in any more Bourne films, the black box set of all three films is probably the best value.
Better than the original - but do see them in order. May 19, 2008
Can sequels be better than or as good as their predecessors...in this case yes!
The story sets off 2 years after the first one, and once again spans the globe in location and plot. Jason Bourne is back, but this time he's been tracked down by both the law and and an organised crime syndicated intent in framing him. The man-hunt is bigger and the fight / stunt scenes better. It's another quick, fast paced movie that grips you so much it'll keep you on the edge of your seat for the entire movie.
The characters remain the same and the continuity between this and the first movie is flawless.
Top marks for this one - definitely as good if not better than the original
 UNIVERSAL RIP-OFF!!! This is NOT Extended!!! March 23, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
My copy plainly says "EXTENDED EDITION" on the cover. It isn't. It actually has far less features than the original too. How CAN Universal get away with this?!! THIS is why piracy doesn't carry the stigma it should - when GREEDY Film Studios blatantly rip-off the general public - why shouldn't we do it back.........?
