It was kind of a strange decision to keep the Bourne series going but change the character and main actor right? It really throws the whole feel of the movie off, It kind of gives it a cash grab feel and like it is completely reliant of the name of the movie, not the movie itself.

say whatever you want but this is my favorite bourne filme, extremely underrated and impactful. the third act misses it a little bit but overall it’s such a solid and well directed film. i love the script!  oscar isaac’s character living alone in that wood cabin? the lab shooting? rachel weisz?

The Bourne Legacy perfects the action style of the franchise with a little more brutality making this spin-off hit hard and greatly entertain. The Bourne Legacy spins off from the Bourne franchise and follows a new agent who has been betrayed by the government and must go in the run to survive. Jeremy Renee’s Aaron Cross has a much more brutal combat style than Bourne, and excited to watch. The Bourne Legacy focuses more on the action and introduces the corrupt network that Cross must battle to bring down and survive. With very little story, the heavy lifting of this film falls on the actors to make it exciting and convincing, which Renner and Weisz deliver with ease. I loved this new direction and these new characters and was disappointed that a sequel was canceled to return to Jason Bourne’s story rather than continuing with Aaron Cross. Thankfully, the Bourne Legacy tells enough story and has enough fun to make it a solid stand-alone action spy film that is highly entertaining and worth a watch.
