The Bourne Legacy



What I liked:

  • It has a great cast: Jeremy Renner, Rachel Weisz, Edward Norton, Scott Glen, Stacy Keach, Albert Finney, David Strathairn, Joan Allen and Corey Stoll.
  • This movie starts off at the end of The Bourne Ultimatum. There are a few plot points and characters that carry over.
  • Some of the action scenes are pretty cool.

What I didn't like:
  • The first hour of the movie moves slow and there is little action.
  • It doesn't flow smoothly.  
  • The entire movie is basically a set up for a sequel.
  • They build up all this sexual tension between Renner and Weisz's characters but we never get to see anything happen.
  • Aaron Cross shows more personality than Jason Bourne ever did but it doesn't feel natural.

Grade: C
