film review: The Bourne Legacy

Genre: Action Adventure Mystery, contains strong violence & reference to drug use

Cert: 15 cert

Story: The narrative architect behind the Bourne film series, Tony Gilroy, takes the helm in the next chapter of the hugely popular espionage franchise that has earned almost $1 billion at the global box office: The Bourne Legacy. The writer/director expands the Bourne universe created by Robert Ludlum with an original story that introduces us to a new hero (Jeremy Renner) whose life-or-death stakes have been triggered by the events of the first three films. For The Bourne Legacy, Renner joins fellow series newcomers Rachel Weisz, Edward Norton, Stacy Keach and Oscar Isaac, while franchise veterans Albert Finney, Joan Allen, David Strathairn and Scott Glenn reprise their roles

Likes : This had it moments good fight scene's & car Chase's, the acting was spot on i like the way they show a chemical science to destroy your y chromosomes with a virus that then regenerates extra chromosomes to make you faster,stronger & smarter, I like the way they did that. Jeremy Renner I'm finding a good actor also played in (mission in possible 4: Ghost Protocol & hawk eye in avengers) he play the character Aaron Cross a genetically enhanced agent like Jason Bourne but better. Jeremy was pretty good playing this type of role it suits he's acting skill's better playing action role's. Rachel Weisz beautiful actress plays Dr. Marta Shearing an innocent Dr caught up in government order to kill everyone that is involved with the experiment in comes Aaron cross to rescue her. This film was good on a spy type film but had flaw.

Dislike: The film had potential to be better, but it started off way to slow it was like that through the whole start of the film then go a little fast paced with the fight scenes & car chase but that about it, then got really slow again, the end was bad i was expecting a bigger ending by it was like the other Bourne films lame, action films to me need to be more fast paced for me this just wasn't fast paced enough it was seriously slow.

Overall : It depend on what you like really some mite like it, other mite not but for me it wasn't fast paced enough to slow,but not a bad film could of been better.

Rating: 3 out of 5 for action/ 5 out of 10 for thriller & pace of the film.
