Slate’s David Edelstein hitting for the fences on The Bourne Supremacy: “a virtuoso demonstration” of “the effect of cutting-edge video and documentary techniques on ho-hum movie material…”
“…simply a tour-de-force of thriller filmmaking…”
“The film has hand-to-hand battles so close and blurry and tumultuous that they summon up your primitive fight-or-flight instincts. It’s as if the filmmaker (and the camera operator) are thinking on their feet alongside the hero, moving instinctively to keep up with their subjects for fear that said subjects will fly out of the frame. And the audience is just as wired-in: I could barely look down at my popcorn.”
