Of its kind, The Bourne Supremacy is incredibly skilled -- much more exciting than its predecessor.

Another of those incoherent Robert Ludlum spy thrillers with more logistics than logic.
Rex Reed, New York Observer
Fresh
An entertaining, well-constructed spy story (though not as satisfying as the first film -- perhaps because it's not as simple).
Charles Taylor, Salon.com
Rotten
The movie is utterly synthetic.
Stephen Hunter, Washington Post
Fresh
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.
Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star
