"I’ve always been drawn to ensemble work. Renoir’s films constantly give a sense of joyous communal activity. All the characters in this film, as in most of his films, are specific and memorable—and Renoir’s vision of life is never pat: he can go from farce to tragedy in a moment, seamlessly, and all the while managing to be above the emotional content of his films. Understanding of it, compassionate towards his characters, but fearlessly above it. In addition his staging, both of the actors and in the camera work, is breathtakingly imaginative."

Matt Damon second outing as Jason Bourne, with the amnesiac assassin hiding out on India, but then being pulled back into action when he is framed for the murder of CIA agents during a government operation in Berlin, and after a tragedy strikes.

Like The Bourne Identity before it, this has some bruising action sequences (while, perhaps, the 'shaky cam' is overdone), culminating in an impressive car chase sequence through and under the streets of Moscow, after which the film seems to run out of steam but still goes on for a bit!
