Philipp Standard Userer	This is a great score. Even better than the first one. Much more rich and a bid more orchestral. Great stuff. Definetely worth a buy!

Bond1965 Standard Userer	I lucked into a copy on the cheap of this last weekend. It's a good CD. Powell takes themes from the first film and really expands on them with the orchestra. Lots of percussion too. I'd say get it. I found it much more interesting that his score for "The Bourne Identity." James

Foobsie Standard Userer	Well developed, rich and very fitting. Themes are interwoven throughout the scene of a movie/event and work wonders on and off screen! FoobsZ NP: I, ROBOT (expanded) 76+

Alexborn007 Standard Userer	I continue the praise! Fantsastic stuff. Powell has evolved so much since the first score, and the quality of Supremacy shines in tracks like "Goa" and "Bim Bam Smash".

Tim_P Standard Userer	Eh... The Bourne Supremacy, while I've grown to really like it, it isn't half the score the original was. The first one was hip and inventive, and much more exciting. The only reason why people would like Supremacy more is because it's got more orchestra this time, but it's all recycled ideas. Powell does a good job of building upon the re-used music from the first one, (Track 6 is brilliant) but on the whole the score is just a typical action score, where the original felt like something more- like a really smart, entertaining album of drum n' bass grooves, percussion, and electronica. But I know, yeah, that's not what's popular among filmscore fans... Tim

Philipp Standard Userer	I didn�t say that I dislike the first score. I thought that BOURNE IDENTITY was one of the best scores of 2002. Currently, I am listening to COLLATERAL, and I think it is one of the best soundtrack albums so far, great song collection by Mr. Mann. And, BOURNE IDENTITY always still gets a fair amount of spins in my cd player. Philipp np: collateral (james newton howard, various)
