Bourne is the main suspect in the death of two field CIA agents.
Russian mob is accusing Bourne for the murder they committed and they
are in India to kill him. CIA agent Pamela Landy ( Joan Allen) and
her boss Ward Abbott (Brian Cox) together with the former treadstone
secretary Nicky (Julia Stiles) have already started working on this
case. They have found Bourne's fingerprints at the murder scene. In
the first chase in Goa, after Jason and Marie get shot, their car
plunge into the river. Bourne tries to revive Marie who was driving,
but couldn't. He escapes from death but again he is all alone. He
is constantly chased from India to Naples, Paris, Amsterdam and Moscow.
He survives one ambush after another, crashing cars, killing assailants
using his unusual skills and martial arts. The chase sequence becomes
more and more intricate and impressive as the movie progresses, finally
ending up in the streets of Moscow. Clever Bourne always slips out
of dangerous hands.
The spy maestro Robert Ludlum has created an interesting character
in Bourne, who is smarter and savvier than James Bond in certain ways.
This film is more action filled and tense than the first one. Damon
is excellent as Bourne. He has very well matured into that role. Though
he is trained as one, he doesn't have the callousness of a killer.
His character is rational and complex with excellent ability to make
split second decisions. The character could become a big hero and
live for ever like James Bond. Fight scenes are very good. The action
sequences are terrific like the high speed car chase through a tunnel
which is exceptional. The way it ends, it has a lot of room for another
sequel and a new chapter in Bourne's life. It is a good movie for
grown ups. Fans of the 1st film will definitely love this one. It
is one of the best spy movies.
We rate this movie Good.
