Plot
Super spy Jason Bourne returns in this sequel to the "Bourne Identity." Bourne and his girlfriend are living in India, hiding from the CIA and authorities. A hit man tries to kill the couple, but succeeds only in murdering Bourne's girlfriend, Marie. This event jolts Bourne out of hiding. He leaves India, unaware of the reason for the attempt on his life. It is later revealed that the hit man was working for a corrupt CIA official, Ward Abbott, and a Russian mobster. This CIA official wanted Bourne dead in order to frame him. If anybody tried to find Bourne, they'd be chasing a ghost. Jason, still suffering from amnesia, eventually discovers he was once a pawn in the CIA. He had been involved in a killing which was outside the knowledge of the CIA authorities. This scheme to use CIA agents for personal gain and murder had been hatched by the corrupt CIA official Abbott, along with help from the Russian gangster. Ultimately, Bourne succeeds in figuring out the frame job. He sets up Abbott with a confession on a tape recorder. Abbott commits suicide, and Bourne slips under the radar once again. In a thrilling car chase set in Russia, Bourne meets up with the hit man who killed his beloved Marie. Although it isn't clear whether the hit man died, Bourne walks away, content that he's gotten some level of justice. Bourne meets up with the daughter of 2 people who he previously killed. These 2 people were eliminated by Bourne, but he thought he was acting on behalf of the CIA. In reality, he was actually acting on orders from the corrupt CIA man Abbott. He apologizes to the girl, and then slips away to set up the possible third movie in this series.

Trivia:
The gun Bourne uses in Moscow is Sig Sauer PRO. Kirill uses a Walther P99 with a QPQ finished slide through the whole movie. QPQ stands for Quench, Polish, Quench. This is a finishing process that results in a silver-colored slide. (more)

Goofs:
Continuity: The last car hit in the tunnel chase scene is a black VW Polo. The following shot, from behind, is actually an earlier scene. The car we see hitting the wall is not the Polo but the first one hit in the tunnel, and Bourne's taxi is not next to the Mercedes but behind it. (more)
