Matt Damon never smiles in The
Bourne Supremacy. I think that’s also true in The Bourne Ultimatum, which is the darker and slightly more
sinister installment in the trilogy. It picks up where the previous film left
off, after Bourne has tried to achieve some redemption by apologizing to the
young woman whose life he altered when he murdered her parents. Most of the
movie cleverly, it turns out, takes place between that apology scene and the
epilogue of The Bourne Supremacy in
which he calls Pam Landy and insinuates that he’s looking at her through her
office window.
