Review
While I haven't watched all of the 'Bourne' movies that starred Matt Damon, I instead went straight onto the fourth instalment. 'THE BOURNE LEGACY' is in every way that it is sleek and not as good as everyone compares it to the originals. Though the action was good and the suspense is chilling, it's just a shame that this feature reinvents the franchise and has no cameo for Matt. I think this could let down fans who have watched the movies just from Matt Damon. For Jeremy Renner's character Aaron Cross who had just taken over the reins of Damon's Jason Bourne as the main hero and the performance by the same actor is magnificent and he should be teaming up with Matt in the next sequel. Other actors Rachel Weisz and Edward Norton were presented in the movie and I thought they're both convincing and naturally fitted into the genre and in closing, I thought the final half of the film was impressive because of the motorcycle chase scene which I thought was unforgettable.

An absolute espionage action thriller, but a very mild one because 'THE BOURNE LEGACY' does have the occasional thrills for this picture and unfortunately I think it lacks the flair of the three original instalments.
Star rating: (4/5) Good Movie
