The Bourne Legacy

This was awesome! Better than 007.

Don't understand why people didn't like the movie. It's as good as the rest of this franchise. It also has a great twist. I guess people didn't like that the main character was replaced.

I liked it; I admit to being confused in the beginning and thinking they had replaced Matt Damon with Jeremy Renner. It took awhile (for me) to figure out that Renner's character is not Jason Bourne being played by a different actor, but a completely different character. Like some have mentioned in other comments, if you watch this as a standalone, it's a good movie. It's a bit of a stretch, however, to try tying this one in to with the other _Bourne_ movies. Way too many gaps, not enough backstory to fill in the blanks, etc. As an action movie, though, it definitely proves to be a very watchable movie.

Better than most action thrillers out there. Especially what came after this.

_The Bourne Legacy_ is a decent addition to the _Bourne_ series, but it falls short in comparison to its predecessors. Jeremy Renner's performance as Aaron Cross is solid, but it lacks the depth and intensity that Matt Damon brought to the role of Jason Bourne. The action sequences are still thrilling, but they lack the kinetic energy and ingenuity that made the original trilogy so iconic. Overall, _The Bourne Legacy_ is an enjoyable movie, but it's not on the same level as the rest of the series.

Smooth detail and swift plot switching

Not as good as the original trilogy but still quite enjoyable, The Bourne Legacy gets a clear recommendation from me to watch it!

This was a strong movie which I enjoyed though I would not call it great or exceptional in any way. I especially was surprised with the last quarter of the movie full of so much action to only end so open ended (the two on a boat to who knows where). Again, I did not like how the film ended. It's like they took you down the rapids having so much fun only to jettison you off the falls with nothing to hold on to. Here's hoping that they will do a better job with the next one.

"Bourne Legacy" continues the story but from the other side, now a new character Aaron Cross (Jeremy Renner) is thrown into the mix. "Bourne Legacy" is a very entertaining film in its own, but if its compared to previous Bourne films, "Legacy" will fall short. Renner does a great job in this film by bringing a more up tempo character but the story is just not too strong to be a serious sequel to the Bourne films..still a very good film with great action scenes and nice locations.
