I really like the camera work and editing style in
The Bourne Supremacy and
Ultimatum. I think it helps to convey the chaotic nature of those chase and combat sequences, ones which mentally would be quite panicked and as frenetic as the editing.
I thought the visual style was very well suited to
United 93 but understand why it was barely used in
Captain Phillips, two films I rate very highly.
