That is Jason Bourne in the Bourne Supremacy which came out this Friday. Carolyn and I hooked up with Paul and Marcia Stevens for an afternoon matinee in Aliso Viejo.
We were all generally pleased at this sequel. Jason is found in India and an attempt is made on his life that leads him again to search his past while the CIA types are attempting to eliminate him. We bounce from Washington, to London, Naples, Switzerland, Germany, and Russia. The visuals are often a little more MTV that the previous film with quick cuts and the various fights/chases etc. are blurs of action. Matt Damon is the new Bond - the action is actually possible but intense and brutal but most of the blood/gore is off-screen and just insinuated by others reactions. No more plot discussions so as not to spoil the movie.
Then we went to Wahoos for dinner! Steak enchilada with guacamole, a red sauce and cheese. Delicious!
Home again around 7:00, our around-the-corner neighbor was down at the lake with his two boys (probably, 4 and 5). They had "driven" to the lake in their yellow Corvette! An electric one built for two small kids complete with velcro seat belts, an actual radio, a hood that opens to show the V-8, and a slide out cup holder! Where were toys like this when I was a kid?! Or are American kids just a little spoiled?
A little reading then about two hours of Discovery's "The Kill Box" which was a documentary of the '91 Gulf War and the amazing visuals taken from both planes and tanks as they destroyed a good part of the Iraqi army. An amazing display of American weaponry. Well, that should be my testosterone fix for a few days.
