The Bourne Supremacy
The Bourne Supremacy re-enters the shadowy world of expert assassin Jason Bourne (Damon), who continues to find himself plagued by splintered nightmares from his former life. The stakes are now even higher for the agent as he coolly maneuvers through the dangerous waters of international espionage - replete with CIA plots, turncoat agents and ever-shifting covert alliances - all the while hoping to find the truth behind his haunted memories and answers to his own fragmented past.

A minor step above the entertaining (yet underwhelming) The Bourne Identity...
December 11, 2010
More than adequately serves as a no-nonsense escapist action thriller.
July 24, 2004
An entertaining, well-constructed spy story (though not as satisfying as the first film -- perhaps because it's not as simple).
July 11, 2010
While not as engaging as "The Bourne Identity," the sequel fills a void in the undernourished spy movie genre.
July 23, 2004
Good enough to make one have faith in certain things again, like spy movies, sequels and the charismatically low-key, quietly lethal movie-star charisma of Matt Damon.
August 03, 2004
Of its kind, The Bourne Supremacy is incredibly skilled -- much more exciting than its predecessor.
December 06, 2016
The strengths are amazing, and it's pretty impressive how thoroughly and successfully the movie rewrote the vocabulary of action cinema.
July 23, 2004
The movie is utterly synthetic.
December 28, 2010
Second in trilogy is a smooth but violent thriller.

[Director] Greengrass proves himself equally adept at action, building on the edginess of Doug Liman's original with a feverish handheld camera and frenetic editing.
September 25, 2010
As Bourne seeks to uncover his past and bury those who would cross him, director Paul Greengrass masterfully blends sight, sound and silence to do much more than entertain: This film leaves a deep psychological imprint.
