* DeathByAdaptation: In the original novels Marie lived to the end of the series (although she was kidnapped in ''Literature/TheBourneSupremacy''). Here she's StuffedIntoTheFridge in the first act.


Added DiffLines:

* InNameOnly: This film has even less to do with the plot of the corresponding novel than ''Film/TheBourneIdentity'' did: in ''Literature/TheBourneSupremacy'', Marie was kidnapped in China but escaped, and Jason spent most of the book looking for her. Also, they were married, and Jason had learned his real name, [[spoiler:David Webb]], at the end of the first book.


Added DiffLines:

* StuffedIntoTheFridge: Marie is killed in the film's first action sequence to motivate Bourne to come out of hiding.

!!This film provides examples of:

* BadassNormal: Kirill, despite being a FSB operative without the same training and brainwashing Treadstone agents have undergone, is more than a match for Bourne.
* UsefulNotes/{{Berlin}}: One of the primary settings of the second movie.
* BatmanGambit: Bourne deliberately gets himself detained at Naples, anticipating that the right people would pick up on it. When they do, Bourne taps their phone conversations and learns their identities and probable locations, making tracking them easier.
* BurnBabyBurn: Bourne burns [[spoiler:Marie's]] passport and photographs after [[spoiler:her death]], [[MementoMacGuffin except for one]].
* DeceasedFallGuyGambit: Abbott tries to pin the Berlin assassination and the money theft on Conklin, who'd died in ''Identity'', and Bourne, who was to be killed before the CIA could find him.
* HaveYouToldAnyoneElse: [[spoiler:Danny Zorn]] preemptively fulfills this trope by explaining to his soon-to-be murderer [[spoiler:Ward Abbott]] that he has yet to share the damaging information he's found.
* ImprovFu: Jason Bourne can beat the shit out of you with a rolled up newspaper and blow up a condo with it when he's done killing you. It should be noted that this example isn't theoretical or exaggerated; it's something Bourne actually does.
* InfoDump: Landy looking through Treadstone files helps explain the aftermath of ''Identity'' to new viewers.
* InspectorJavert: Pamela Landy.
* ItWorksBetterWithBullets: Bourne found Jarda's gun and emptied its bullets. [[GenreSavvy Jarda noted how the gun felt light]].
* LeaveBehindAPistol: Bourne does this for [[spoiler:Ward Abbott.]]
* PosthumousCharacter: Everything that happens traces back to the assassination of Vladimir Neski, [[HeKnowsTooMuch who'd been killed before revealing]] that Yuri Gretkov was using stolen CIA funds to buy up Russian oil leases. Jason soon uncovers that he was the one that killed Neski, in his very first Treadstone assignment.
* PrecisionFStrike: Bourne himself delivers a powerful one at the end of an intense interrogation he uses on Nicky Parsons. Considering how calm and stoic Bourne usually is in the second and third movies, it really signifies his emotional turmoil and hate for the CIA after [[spoiler:losing Marie, the one person he came to really care for, all because Ward Abbott refused to leave him alone and sent an assassin to take him down, but ended up killing her instead by accident.]]
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: The whole movie, albeit so cold and machine-like it seems he's lost his humanity [[spoiler: until he refuses to kill Ward Abbott and again when he speaks to Irina Neski]].
* SuddenSequelDeathSyndrome: [[spoiler:Marie, Danny Zorn and Ward Abbott.]]
* TheseHandsHaveKilled: On the DVD commentary, Bourne's reaction after killing [[spoiler:Jarda]] is described as a man that's fallen off the wagon.
* TrainEscape: After Bourne is identified at a hotel.
* TrappedInASinkingCar: Bourne's car goes careening off a pier due to the assassin that is trying to kill them. He escapes, but [[spoiler:his girlfriend]] got fatally shot in the process.
* TheWorfEffect: Bourne is incredibly cautiously when he faces Jarda, with good reason. He's a particularly brutal fighter.
* YankTheDogsChain: [[spoiler:The death of Marie in the beginning of the film.]]
