A somewhat classic spy film, fits with a lot of other films in this genre. With a stark distinction, and that is that killing has meaning in this film. While most spy movies take killing for granted and is hidden in its portrayal, this film deals with it as it is, the taking of human life, and that is never just a thing to do, or an easy choice. In fact, it is a choice. In 007/Bond movies, James has a "license to Kill," he uses this excessively and the audience doesn't care, most video games have the same apathy toward killing. I think this film is distinct and right to bring out this deeper theme.
(note: this is the sequel to The Bourne Identity)
