Bourne Supremacy - The best use of a magazine since Alien

Bourne is back. And in a unusual twist for sequels, it's even better than the first. Still roaming the gritty grey rainy world of Europe, still driving like a loon and still staying one clever ass bastard step ahead of his makers. Wow wow wow and more of the legend that is Cox too!!!!!! I await the Bourne Vs Bond comic strip.

Bourne Identity - Don't make me angry, I don't know why I'm doing what I'm doing when I'm angry

The film that spawned a thousand sequels. Well I think it did. Much like The Matrix inspired numerous scifi/fighting actioners (from the West anyway, Our Eastern friends were doing it for years) this one reinvented the Spy Thriller. Even James Bond sat up and took note. The story isn't entirely original, but then the book it comes from must be about 30 years old, so who knows. But ever since this film, fight editing has got quick and in your face and the hand held camera is king!!! The best bit is the sequels are even better.

Troy - Beware of Trojans, they're complete smegheads

Now this is epic. And not in a slow brooding way either but in a huge and bloody visual extravaganza type way. Everything looks stupendous and every actor (and there are some stunners on show) is bang on form. The fight scenes with Achilles are worth the admission alone. The ladies will swoon for Pitt but Bana is the star. Is there anything this man can't do?
