The Bourne Supremacy

Starring: Matt Damon , Franka Potente , Karl Urban

Director: Paul Greengrass
Studio: Universal Pictures
Rating: N/A
Theater Release: Jul 23, 2004

Matt Damon willl reprise his role as Jason Bourne, a man on a search to find out his real identity as he evades the CIA and assassins. In the sequel, a Chinese vice-premier has been slain by the legendary assassin Jason Bourne. Of course, there is no Jason Bourne. The identity is simply a cover for the CIA's David Webb. But with someone else assuming the Bourne identity, the U.S. must find a way to avert a international diplomatic scandal that imperils Sino-American peace.

Interesting. Matt Damon's Bourne Identity was a really enjoyable movie. I thought the story was really solid as well.

Anyone see the original? Bourne Identity

Tickford · 10-08-2003, 07:39 PM

Yeah I have the original on DVD, one of my fav movies. I cant wait until the new movie comes out. If it half as good as the first it will be worth a trip to the movies.

Matt Damon is such a good actor, he can play such a wide range of roles.

Neato · 10-08-2003, 07:50 PM

I totally agree. What an awesome movie that was. Man. Now I need to watch it again.

salsa2 · 10-08-2003, 07:51 PM

The original was from 1988. I never saw it.
It had Richard Chamberlin starring.

The remake was pretty good.

Looking forward to the next one

Glad-I-Ate-Her · 10-08-2003, 07:56 PM

I enjoyed the first one. I look forward to seeing it.

Wow, I'm surprise and extremely happy that they will be coming out with a sequel to the Bourne Identity. I have watched this movie so many times now because I have it on my computer! Great movie!

mercury-hg · 10-08-2003, 08:47 PM

hate to be the book-was-better-than-the-movie guy, but i thought "the bourne identity" was the epitomy of this. i thought the cast and direction was fine, but they really dropped all the interesting subplots (and MAIN plot) from the novel. and that final jump off the stairwell, shoot guy, and land on a body was a damn anticlmactic end! if you liked the movie, though, do check out the novel(s).

DonnieBoy · 10-09-2003, 07:35 PM

I agree with "The Book was Better" opinion... I read all three novels and was shocked when Matt Affleck Was cast ast Bourne... he is just too prissy....

that said I enjoyed the movie from a pure action flick point of view.... so I'll probably see the sequel

I saw the first movie with onodrim in the theatres and was truly surprised at how good it was - I wasn't expecting that at all. But, like you said, Matt Damon is such a versatile actor. I'm looking forward to this sequel - this is the first I've heard of it.

i totally agree.
i was really surprised at how great the Bourne Identity was. i even bought the DVD version...
i´m excited about this sequel, especially since Damon, Potente and Liman are all back for this one.
looking forward to this one.

Moobie · 10-10-2003, 06:27 AM

Actually isn't this supposed to be a trilogy? I thought there was going to be three of them. There's nothing quite as cool as seeing Matt Damon play something other that a "gay serial killer who plays golf and rides horses." And Franka Potente always gets my votes....

Lestat · 10-10-2003, 10:37 PM

Great movie, I'll have to check out the original. Yeah, I think it is a trilogy. It was hard for me to look at Damon as a action guy, he did pretty good in the movie.

diergray · 10-11-2003, 06:32 AM

Yeah it was a good movie and I will definitely see the sequel. Another spy book that just begs to be made into a movie is The Brotherhood of the Rose. If you haven't read it go buy it today!

Stare At The Sun · 10-11-2003, 08:49 AM

Franka...ohhh shes so sexy

brandon11983 · 10-11-2003, 08:18 PM

I really enjoyed the movie, so I bought the DVD. It was a good flick, with a good storyline, and pleny o' action... and that hot Russian chcik.. I'm now looking forward to the sequel.

I'm with you, boo-was-better-than-the-movie guy. I read the 1st book which was great and then looked forward to the movie, that sucked. I hope the 2nd one sucks less
