First off, I must say, that if you could watch The Blair Witch Project, you should definately go see The Bourne Supremacy. For people like me, you'll miss half the fight scenes.
Plot: A grade, right in line with The Bourne Identity. Good development, excellent twists and progressing quick enough to follow, but not enough to figure out what was going to happen.
Acting: Great choice in actors/actresses, characters returning from the first movie use the same actors. No complaints at all here.
Camera Work: Biggest and only complaint. This shit almost makes the movie not worth watching! During any fight/chase/suspense scene, they did the damn Blair Witch run along behind bounce or constant jostle and move camera angles. IT NEVER STOPPED! It was like some parkinsons patient was brought in to do the camera work! Even during some emotional discussion scenes the idiot director had the camera moving! This took a much anticipated, much loved movie and made it almost unwatchable. I had to avert my gaze more than once during a combat scene to avoid refilling my popcorn bucket.
Overall: 6.5 out of 10, without the funky terrible camera work: 8.5 out of 10.
P.S. The movie does not release until Friday, I watched it on preview special release tickets.
