    Not bad

    by holtge

    I liked this film. And I liked that the filmakers set it within the same time period as the original Bourne trilogy. But it kinda sucked that Jason Bourne himself wasn't actually a part of it. I understand Matt Damon's reluctance to do yet another Bourne film - especially without director Paul Greengrass - but I really missed his presence in this film. Jeremy Renner did a capable enough job as master assassin Aaron Cross, but it really would have been nice to have a Matt Damon as Jason Bourne cameo if nothing else as a part of this film. Oh well, other than that personal pet peeve, The Bourne Legacy was a good and entertaining film.

    I like Jeremy Renner, and enjoyed the other Bournes, but for whatever reason, not so much this one.......

    Better than I expected

    by

    In keeping with the previous Bourne installments, Bourne Legacy doesn't fail to deliver the essential ingredients of any quality action flick: excellent fight scenes, semi-protracted car chase, and somewhat believable (albeit dubious) plot line. Renner has done a great job of picking up the Bourne mantle and stirs some hopes that additional films are in the queue.

    80 Minutes of Great Action

    Some great action, a great setup, but unfortunately, the movie was longer than it needed to be. It did not have the story line to support its length. A good 20 minutes of chase could have been removed. Also, Edward Norton is a fabulous actor but was unconvincing in this role. Looks like it will develop into an interesting series, but I hope the producers take a lesson from some of the classic Bond films. Less is more!

    Horrible story...badly written

    by philvz

    I love the guy that played Bourne. I was really hoping that he did well in this movie. However this movie was so bad stupid and long that it made him look like a clown.

    Just As Good As The Other Ones

    Surprisingly good considering Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) was only in this my mention. I kept waiting for him to show up but he never did. This one was just as good a stacks up very well with the Matt Damon movies.

    If you're a real fan of the Bourne franchise, you'll find enjoyment in this one. Jeremy Renner did his thing, but I personally could've gone for a bit more out of the movie as a whole. I just hope they don't get out of hand with more movies and turn this franchise of great action into a crap chute.

    Wolfman

    This was probably the best of the Bourne series. Lots of action and it didn't make me dizzy like the last one that was edited at a pace so fast that it actually made me dizzy. It did have a weak ending though. Legacy means the aftermath and it did follow the aftermath of Jason Bourne but just like real life the government just keeps chugging along with no real results that we all expect.
