    The Bourne Supremacy

    ★★★★

    A truly riveting continuation of the Bourne franchise that does everything a great sequel should do and then some. This movie quite instantly kicks everything into high gear with a thrillingly breathless style from director Paul Greengrass who pretty much never lets his foot off the gas and delivers brilliantly intense set piece after set piece with seeming ease.

    The movie that quite single handedly restarted the spy/action genre in the 2000's and also turned Matt Damon into a full on star. This movie is a brilliantly thrilling piece action entertainment that has just as much brains as it does brawn. Not to mention an insanely strong supporting cast that is so much fun to watch in this espionage world. Even after over 20 years it still holds up so well and really paved the way for all that came after.

    Octopussy

    ★★★★½

    Hands down one of the absolute most underrated and under appreciated Bond movies of all time. This movie is exactly the tone I feel a true Bond movie should be placed at. Full of hilarious quips, thrilling action, beautiful locations, Hitchcockian intrigue, brilliant camp and breathtaking stunts. I have watched this movie more times than I could ever count and it never ceases to be an absolute joy of pure spy fun that honestly several Bond movies have been lacking…
