The Bourne Supremacy

Release date: 15 July 2004 (USA)

Despite the plethora of raves on rottentomatoes.com, this second version of Matt doing his Bourne thing flounders on a (yawn) done-it-before story of amnesia and Russian spies and just doesn't live up to the original. Matt Damon does his best to seem interested in what's going on but just can't quite pull it off (perhaps that's the amnesia at work?). The directing, by Paul Greengrass, is all MTV with jumpy shots, flashbacks and lots of shaky camera work. It's all way too much and left me distracted and disinterested.

My rating 6 out of 10.
