A bit overrated, but still an amazing film

it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.
Roman Sampson
One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
Ariella Broughton
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

So i was really uncertain about watching this after seeing all the reviews. When i finally got the balls to watch it at the very couple scenes i knew this wasn't jason bourne movie because it wasn't trying to tell the same story. People had the issue of comparing this to the trilogy but if you watch not as a part of jasons story but just accept that it's in the same universe. The scripting wasn't too bad and of course the acting was over the top with jeremy renner and rachel weisz. I think this movie was created to answer some questions about the universe and bring in another program and it's participants to explain the programs. The movie also sets us up to the upcoming events. The thing is this movie is so badly criticised but people looked at it with a wrong angle. Overall it serves the purpose of telling a beatiful story, answering some questions about the universe and setting us up for the upcoming events perfectly.

Just how many other people were there in the Treadstone programme? How would each fare if 'written-off' by the government. These are effectively the questions asked in this film. Jeremy Renner is superb - he out-acts everyone else in the film and deserves recognition for the way he managed to hold the film together despite not very good direction, The rest of the cast is strong - just look at what else the supporting actors have done since this picture. Rachel Weisz was perhaps a surprising choice for the potential love interest, but she certainly held her own and was out-acted only by Jeremy Renner. I won't even describe the plot - there are sufficient reviews already - save to say it was quite confusing until the film was watched a second time. As others have said, the actors gave better than the screenplay and direction deserved. Still, it is an enjoyable film and deserves a second or third viewing.

I felt the need to defend this movie, as it is not at all a bad film; au contraire, it's a very good one, and I personally find it to be better than its two immediate predecessors.From a storytelling point of view, I find that Supremacy and Ultimatum, while both are very good movies, follow the same standard formula first established in 2002 by Identity, and therefore, they lack the originality factor (yes, I know they're based on the Robert Ludlum novels, but I've never read any of them, so my critique stands), whereas I feel Legacy tells an original story in the already established world that feels fresh and plausible: it tells the story of a black ops agent from another project similar to Treadstone called Operation Outcome, and how the events of the first three films affect him and everyone else involved in Outcome.The action is filmed just as badly as in Supremacy and Ultimatum, where the quick cuts, the shakiness and the weird camera angles make it very hard for you to understand what's going on. The locations on this movie, however, might be the most spectacular yet in the first 4 Bourne films, in particular the Alaskan wilderness.The characters in this film are great and relatable, and the performances, specially from Jeremy Renner and Rachel Weisz, are amazing. The chemistry between the two was spot on.Edward Norton serves the part as the evil government guy in the computer room chasing our hero that we've come to expect from the Bourne films already. The film is tense and intriguing and keeps you invested in the story. You genuinely care about our two leads and their outcome (no pun intended).In conclusion, this film is a welcome entry in the series, and brings in a much needed breath of fresh air to the saga. Really hope to see Aaron Cross coming back and teaming up with Jason Bourne at some point in the future. Definitely go see this one, guys.

A waste of 2 hours and 41 minutes. Time which I'll never get back.Although the genetically enhanced agents theme follow-up to the original Bourne series had promise, it fails to deliver.The drug-addicted super agents are supposed to be better than human, but you'll never see anything supporting that claim Yes, it has plenty of action, but not much thought was put to the story line and background of the characters. One walks away without ever caring about any of them.A filler movie, intended to satisfy the desire for the public desire for more Bourne movies. Kind-of like 'New Coke' was suppose to replace the original Coke.
