Film summary
The_Bourne_Supremacy_movie.jpg
The film begins with Jason Bourne being framed for the death of two CIA operatives in Berlin, Germany when his fingerprints are found at the scene of a deal to buy classified Russian documents. Unaware of any of this, Bourne, who is still suffering from amnesia, is now living in Goa, India with Marie. Realising that he has been tracked down, he attempts to relocate himself and Marie, trying to escape from a man sent to kill him. He succeeds but Marie does not, getting shot by the chasing assassin.
At the end of the first film Bourne warned of serious consequences if his former employers were to disturb him again. In Supremacy he sets out immediately to uncover the truth of why they have not left him alone, finding Pamela Landy, who was in charge of the failed Russian document operation and is now investigating Bourne himself.
Bourne discovers that he was framed for the killing of the two CIA operatives, in an effort to steal documents with information on the identity of someone who embezzled millions of dollars from the US government. Bourne then pieces together clues and uses his fake identities to attempt to clear his name. In the end, he finds the true embezzlers, and after a high-speed car chase through the streets of Moscow, one of the embezzler-asassins is involved in a serious car crash. It is not known whether he dies or not, but Bourne chose not to kill him. The other embezzler was later arrested in Moscow.
The film ends with Bourne disappearing into the New York City crowds, setting the stage for another movie: The Bourne Ultimatum.
