having acquired my taste for movies in an age largely before CGI was used to convey emotion, alomst nothing makes me as happy as a good car chase.
relish in this people. here is a sequel that by far outranks the first movie.
it suddenly occurred to me last night that i was riveted to the screen watching a car chase - and it was because of great editing and directing. no explosions, no naked girls, no maniacal anything. just a good old fashioned intense car chase.
the filming of the movie was quite brilliant as well. while not shot from Bourne's perspective through out, the camera movement in certain scenes reflects bourne's emotional/psychological state to a T.
i normally detest taking a character and writing totally new stories for him/her, but in this case it not just worked, it was better than the book.
high marks for bourne. i hope they keep it up.
