Matt Damon returns as super-spy Jason Bourne in the hair-raising sequel to “The Bourne Identity.”

This time around, our preoccupied assassin is shaken out of seclusion in India by CIA bad guy Ward Abbott (Brian Cox), who falsely blames Bourne for a recent assassination that has caused a rift between the U.S. and China.

Bourne turns the tables on his CIA aggressors with every bit of steel-nerved ability he can muster. Director Paul Greengrass (“Bloody Sunday”) delivers an elegant if over-edited response to Doug Liman’s impressive initial effort.

Action-packed fistfights and car chases punctuate the fast paced espionage as CIA agent Pamela Landy (Joan Allen) leads the effort to bring Jason Bourne in alive.

While not as engaging as “The Bourne Identity,” the sequel fills a void in the undernourished spy movie genre.

Rated PG-13. 108 mins.
