The Bourne Supremacy

The Bourne Supremacy picks up where the events of the first film, The Bourne Identity, left off. Jason Bourne (played by Matt Damon) and his love interest, Marie Helena Kreutz (played by Franka Potente), have been living in a small seaside village in Eastern Europe, attempting to put their traumatic past behind them. Bourne and Marie have fallen in love and are trying to start a new life, free from the political machinations and espionage of the CIA. However, their peaceful existence is short-lived. A CIA operation, aimed at procuring classified Russian documents, takes a catastrophic turn. The documents turn out to be a trap set by a rogue agent within the CIA, who plans to manipulate Bourne and use the documents to frame him for murder. The CIA's Conklin (played by Chris Cooper), in collaboration with the Russian mafia, orchestrates a sequence of events that makes Bourne an unwitting scapegoat. The sleepy seaside village where Bourne and Marie have been living is suddenly disrupted by the arrival of Kirill (played by Karl Urban), the man who had been sent to track down and kill Bourne. Meanwhile, it is revealed that Kirill is, in fact, Alex Conklin's protege. Conklin, who had been overseeing the operation in Moscow, had deliberately allowed Kirill to set up the whole operation to obtain the classified documents, thereby ensnaring Bourne in the trap. Bourne is forced to use his combat skills to take down Kirill and other goons trying to eliminate him. Conklin, now revealed as Bourne's number one enemy, had orchestrated a sophisticated setup calculated to bring down Bourne and destroy his reputation. Wittingly or unwittingly, he had implicated Bourne in the murder of the CIA agent in Moscow. Conklin's move was meant to hide his own involvement in shady dealings. Marie is kidnapped during one of Bourne's confrontations with Kirill, which leaves Bourne with no option but to take up his cover identity of Jarda and join a local street gang to move freely and know who to trust. Upon discovering that a mysterious driver is regularly supplying guns to the Russian mafia, Bourne decides to investigate. He gains the driver's trust by using his combat skills to take down a series of high-stakes targets. As the story unfolds, Bourne starts piecing together the events surrounding the botched op, using cryptic clues and evidence buried by the CIA and Conklin to learn the truth about his fabricated murder charge. From Bulgaria to Moscow, Bourne travels, evading numerous enemies, deciphering clues buried by Conklin, and facing a ruthless agent, Kirill's buddy, but in fact Conklin, finally at point-blank range with the agent as the point of his fight in the Russian movie theater and restaurant fight scene with the enemy. The aftermath reveals the truth behind Conklin's motives, showing the extent of the CIA corruption when he is finally dead in the movie by a car bomb, which destroyed his entire operation and had him escaping the very wrath of Conklin, as Bourne says revenge is personal. It seems there is little possibility for a relationship for him as that will keep drawing him back into his world of deception.
