tonymacklin.netWhen a very successful movie franchise makes some major changes, it is likely that it will face a deluge of rejection and preconception."They changed it. OMG, they made changes!" The Bourne Legacy comes with a lot of baggage stamps from reviewer...
Entertainment WeeklyWhen agent Aaron Cross plunges into icy waters in the opening moments of the brisk and satisfying spy thriller The Bourne Legacy, the scene serves two purposes: to commemorate the superb and well-loved trilogy that came before, in which Matt Damon..
Shockya.comYou’ve got to admire “Bourne”’s photography and effects, however generic to thrillers, but if Tony Gilroy’s “The Bourne Legacy” is the least exciting of the four Bourne series, it could be that too much exposure and repetition are not a good thing.
7M PicturesI have a bit of a unique perspective on “The Bourne Legacy,” considering how much general love there is for Tony Gilroy in the critical community. His debut directorial effort “Michael Clayton” was almost universally loved and gobbled up award...
Slant MagazineThere's exactly one, and no more than one, thrilling sequence in The Bourne Legacy, the fourth installment of the indefatigable franchise. It's a set piece that earns all the clichés appropriate to such a spectacle: it's visceral and white-knuckle...
FirstShowing.netThere was a ton of potential for The Bourne Legacy, a film that expands the universe of the Jason Bourne films by bringing someone on the fringe of those events into the forefront. Especially with Tony Gilroy, screenwriter of the first films who comes...
One Guy's OpinionYou can never keep a good man down, even when the man himself is gone. That seems to be the operative idea behind “The Bourne Legacy,” in which Jeremy Renner replaces Matt Damon as a super-secret operative on the run from agents of his own government.
Washington Post“The Bourne Legacy” looks bad on paper. The fourth installment of the hugely successful franchise starring Matt Damon as the memory-depleted assassin Jason Bourne does not star Damon, doesn’t even feature his character and does not arrive by way of...
Philly.comThe Bourne Legacy begins, fittingly, with a nod to The Bourne Identity: a guy floating in the water, photographed from underneath. He's like a fetus in amniotic fluid, ready to pop.
New York PostBeginning more or less where “The Bourne Ultimatium” left off, “The Bourne Legacy’’ is interrupted from time to time for news bulletins about the search for Matt Damon’s rogue CIA agent Jason Bourne, last seen jumping into the East River to escape his...
LarsenOnFilmThere's a make-or-break moment early on in The Bourne Legacy - I'll only say it involves a showdown with a wolf - and the whole movie hinges, really, on whether we laugh in derision or in appreciation at the absurd audacity of the scene.
St. Petersburg TimesThe Bourne Legacy picks up where the third movie left off, where the saga could have stayed and few would mind. Jason Bourne was poised to blow the whistle on two covert CIA projects, including the Treadstone experiments in chemical enhancement of...
madison.comThe fourth film in the Bourne franchise, "The Bourne Legacy," may seem heady and intentionally disorienting and hard to follow at first — until you realize it's really about drug addiction, and the lengths to which a junkie will go to get his fix.
CinemaBlend.comThe Bourne Legacy arrives as the promised continuation of a mega-franchise, but it's worth remembering that even Jason Bourne had humble origins. The Bourne Identity arrived in 2002 as a sleeper hit-- it finished second at the box office its opening...
JoBlo's Movie EmporiumThe dreaded “reboot” word doesn't really belong in any description of THE BOURNE LEGACY. This is a clear-cut sequel- although it just so happens not to feature the titular character, Jason Bourne, as played by the iconic Matt Damon.
Reel Film ReviewsDisappointing as both a Bourne sequel and as Tony Gilroy's followup to the brilliant Duplicity, The Bourne Legacy, which occurs contemporaneously to The Bourne Ultimatum, details the chaos that ensues after the CIA decides to wipe out every trace of a...
Mania.comThe Bourne Legacy battles its share of problems, the greatest of which is its inability to stand on its own merits. With franchise star Matt Damon bowing out, The Powers That Be now posit a second reprogrammed killing machine to replace his Jason Bourne.
Rolling StoneWhen are solid action, good actors and only a semiidiotic spy plot not good enough for summer-movie escapism? When they stand in a long shadow, that's when. And The Bourne Legacy is dwarfed by the three smash Bourne movies...
Crave OnlineMaybe we should have paid closer attention to the posters advertising The Bourne Legacy. In retrospect, they seem outright apologetic, limply defending themselves with the tag line “There was never just one…” They should have clarified by adding the...
filmjabberThe Bourne Legacy on its own is not a bad movie. Tony Gilroy, who directed the masterful Michael Clayton, is a capable director and makes a strong claim that he can handle action. The movie jumps around like a good spy movie should and develops...
Groucho ReviewsMeet the new Bourne, same as the old Bourne. That’s the impression left by The Bourne Legacy, a would-be franchise refresher in which Jeremy Renner grabs the baton from Matt Damon. The new movie is directed and co-written by Tony Gilroy (Michael Clayton),
TotalFilm.comTo their number we can now add The Bourne Legacy, a continuation of the Robert Ludlum-inspired spy series without Matt Damon’s amnesiac assassin as its focal point.
QNetwork EntertainmentThe Bourne Legacy is not so much a reboot of the genre-redefining series of espionage thrillers as it is an offshoot, a breakneck turn into a parallel universe that overlaps just enough with the last film narratively, thematically, and aesthetically...
IBNLiveThe fundamental problem with 'The Bourne Legacy' is that it contains too much talking and very little action. It’s a far cry from the earlier Bourne films, particularly Supremacy and Ultimatum, both directed by Paul Greengrass whose frenetic...

RedEyeTo fill Matt Damon’s/Jason Bourne’s shoes, an actor/character must be fleet of foot, squeeze into tight spaces and possess badass hand-to-hand combat skills.
Movie WebThis was a huge, essentially plotless disappointment: zero intrigue, zero character/relationship development, zero point, very little suspense, and empty dialogue. Renner and Weisz carried the entire thing, but outside of liking them I cared little or...
Fresno BeeFor a film franchise that's going through a rebirth, "Bourne Legacy" looks a lot closer to retirement age. The film moves at a slow pace because it has a convoluted plot, uninspired action scenes and too many people babbling scientific and spy jargon.
HollywoodDo the Bourne movies make any sense? Enough. The first three films — The Bourne Identity, Supremacy, and Ultimatum — throw in just enough detail into the covert ops babble and high-speed action that, by the end, Jason Bourne comes out an emotional...
KamWilliams.comThe prior three installments in the Bourne franchise, The Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum, were all adapted from best-sellers by Robert Ludlum and starred Matt Damon as espionage agent extraordinaire Jason Bourne.
Eric D. SniderOh, you thought Jason Bourne was the only super-spy the CIA had created? That’s adorable. It’s adorable that you thought that! Of course the CIA had other test subjects too, all just as lethal with their hands, feet, and rolled-up magazines as Bourne.
NJ.comThree and you’re out is the new Hollywood maxim. So, after a trilogy of Robert Ludlum films pumped up the American spy genre, mostly thanks to Matt Damon (and some migraine-inducing editing), it’s time for the inevitable reboot.
Sacramento News & ReviewMatt Damon may have declined a fourth go-round as Jason Bourne, but Universal Pictures wasn’t about to let a good franchise die just because their star bailed on them. So guess what: In the script by director Tony Gilroy and his brother Dan, Jason...
Atlantic City WeeklyWith Matt Damon passing on the chance to continue as memory-challenged super spy Jason Bourne, the franchise went in a new direction with two-time Oscar nominee Jeremy Renner (The Hurt Locker, The Town, The Avengers).
Reel ViewsThe total worldwide box office gross for the first three Jason Bourne movies (The Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremacy, The Bourne Ultimatum) is nearly one billion dollars (more if adjusted for inflation).
Film.comIt was plainly established in the first three films of the Jason Bourne franchise that there were other government-trained secret agents besides Matt Damon’s lead stationed throughout the world. Now that Damon has taken his leave of the series that...
Screen JabberIt's impossible not to compare this reboot to the masterful trilogy featuring Matt Damon. After all, we are told that his character is alive and well in the opening scenes, still adeptly foiling his detractors. But that is merely a hook to engage...
Movies.comWhen Roseanne re-cast Becky you didn't really mind, right? You kept watching. You probably even kept watching during that last season that was all a dream. I did. I thought, "Well, this isn't really what I signed on for, but sure, go off in your new...
NorthShoreMovies.netThe “Bourne” films had only a tangential connection to the Robert Ludlum novels on which they were supposedly based, so the idea of continuing them after director Paul Greengrass and star Matt Damon decided to move on is hardly sacrilege.
Fan The FireTony Gilroy, who was a writer on Bournes Identity, Supremacy and Ultimatum, returns here as co-scribe and director for the fourth entry in the series, which takes place pretty much concurrently with Ultimatum, and is at once very familiar territory.
Houston PressThe first three Bourne movies make up one of the more successful action movie franchises to date, grossing almost a billion dollars worldwide. This was thanks in no small part to Matt Damon's portrayal of the titular character, and the adaptations...
Flicks.co.nzTrying to reconfigure the hugely successful Bourne series without the presence of franchise star Matt Damon is not actually a terrible idea per se: there are more top secret Bourne-like ops around the world? Sure, why not? It’s fine fodder for series...
Shadows on the WallWriter Gilroy adds directing to his Bourne chores, shifting the franchise into a cerebral thriller punctuated by plodding action sequences. It's watchable, but doesn't have enough sense of character or purpose to make us care about anything that happens.
Indian Express"We are the sin-eaters. Morally indefensible but totally necessary." So says National Research Assay Group's Edward Norton to a soldier with moral quibbles played by Jeremy Renner. He could well have said it about this fourth instalment in the...
MovieXclusive.comTo find an actor in place of Matt Damon as Jason Bourne was going to be close to impossible, so series writer Tony Gilroy did the next best thing – he created a Bourne-like agent in the form of Aaron Cross, and cast character actor Jeremy Renner in...
NowRunning.comWith a star-laced film being no criteria for success and cinema viewers going fickle to like anything (in the view of studio bosses), the need to continue something that audiences have liked in the past is reaching desperate proportions.
doddleNEWS2012′s summer movie season may very well be credited with the inception of the unorthodox spinoff. Starting with the smartly orchestrated, hit smash mash-up of The Avengers, the retro-morph of Ridley Scott’s Alien into Prometheus followed next.
