The Bourne Legacy

I actually enjoyed it more than the Damon films (although very good) and Renner was a more human character than Damon's robot-like hero. However, there were too many 'talky' scenes after a decent action set-piece and Norton's character fizzled out. Would be happy to see a 5th one though!

Kudos to the people on this site that solidly rated this film. Personally I thought it was refreshing having Jeremy play the key role. He brought a different edge and the action was full on and sharp. Put another way the story line was tight and it wasnt full of excessive fighting. Yes parts of the plot were a bit complicated but you come to expect that from these types of films. Its all too easy to pick out the flaws in any film..non-speaking evil guy on the motor cycle at the end...but thats just cherry picking...there was more than enough to keep people busy and on a personal note I thought it held together better than the latest Bond flick which was akin to Rambo in the Scottish Highlands...a yawnfest

Yawn,what a dull plot. Or maybe thats from the bourne saga continuing?...all i can say is its a letdown. Wait for it on dvd.

Not a patch on the first three. Should have dropped the project when Matt Damon pulled out of it. They will need to up their game if they are considering a fifth, but to be honest if its the same production / writer team again, please dont bother.

Though thin on plot, it was sort of a Bourne 'Lite' version of the series, it was still enjoyable.

This film is to the Bourne stable what “Quantum of Solace� is to the Bond films – distinctly flat, and in no way memorable, other than for being poor quality. Worth giving this one a miss.

I do wonder how a top agent, alert at ALL other times fails to notice the busy Shanghi (or where ever) street a floor below has suddenly fallen deadly silent......but that small gripe aside (other than the plank that is Renner and an over po faced approach by all involved) this rattles along at a fair crack (rather shocked to find the credits rolling, esp. after a pancake flat final exchange!) and is at least worth a cheapo watch. Id go again if asked...not with any relish, but I wouldn't find it a chore, so all in all, roughly on par with The Expendables 2. And, for added entertainment, J. Renner has an amazing knack of transforming into J. Kyle in numerous scenes. 6/10

Complaint, too right mate........both points annoy me too. Anyway, off to see this today (rating above)...........and have you seen the cost of a first class stamp? Scandalous!

enjoyed this a lot despite all the gripes being true! The car chase/bike chase was very very boring (but car chases always are) and the guy chasing them was supposed to be some no-empathy killing machine - really????????????????????????????????? But somehow I was entertained! I don't know, maybe I just enjoyed the whole medication plotline, plus the way it's meant to be happening at the same time as the last bourne film - and I like Renner and Weisz.

to be fair it was far better than expected after the critique which is very unfair in this case and the anti war ,anti corporate theme might be the culprit here with the state to blame for the mess too .-flawed but fun to watch
