action / sequel

(imdb rating: 8.4/10)

Plot: Bourne dodges new, superior assassins as he searches for his unknown past while a government agent tries to track him down.

The favorable reviews for this movie bled from Greengrass' other impressive works (United 93, Bloody Sunday) cuz this is a pretty "by the number" Bourne story. Kid runds around, kicks people's ass and shows zero emotion. And Greengrass is not a fan of the steady cam. Not a total bore but not that much off the Richter scale

Spoiler/Question: why does Julia Stiles's character Nicky Parsons helps Bourne? I talked to James about this and he said she wanted him. Also it is slightly suggested that she helped out of guilt, for participating in the program? Dunno.. loose ends

I remember Joan Allen being a real b-tch in the previous movie, Strathairn is a bit wasted here in the one dimensional evil role. Tony Gilroy (Michael Clayton) co-scripted this movie
