The tight camera brings the viewer into the action, providing

a sense of violence and involvement that a wide shot can't bring. How many westerns have you seen where an outdoor fight scene is almost boring-the absolute antithesis of what the director hoped for. Compare that to, say, the barroom fight in 'Shane'. The small interior dimensions of the set forces close camera work and, because of that, you get to feel the intensity of the violence. To the point, at least for me, of increased heart rate and goosebumps.

The fight scene in 'Supremacy', between Bourne and his fellow assassin in the modern-furnished flat, was just superb: from the tension-filled early moments to the wild, in-your-face camera work, and the use of anything and everything available to defeat your enemy. In one scene, it summed up what these men had been trained to do. To me, it was very, very well done.
