Re: The Bourne Legacy
Saw this at Finchley Road.
Nothing special. Having seen the other Bournes, it was similar to watching a "rogue" Bond film like Never Say Never Again. Competent, but it just doesn't feel the same. And I never really got into the story.

Re: The Bourne Legacy
Saw this in Showcase Glasgow where I saw teddybear1 (forgot to ask her OH how his team did yesterday even though I knew the score 
) and also Ploggit. Majority of the audience were of the grey haired variety.
As a standalone film I think it was alright. Must be one of the only few who thought it didn't feel how long 135 minutes was. Definitely a film of two sections and for the most part of the first bit I followed it. Can't say I remember much of the Bourne trilogy even though I have seen all three. Didn't feel I needed to. Renner was alright as a replacement to Damon. 6/10

Re: The Bourne Legacy
first half wasnt bad, but maybe a tad too slow straight after Samsara.
Remner is a hot guy and buffed up pretty well for the role but he looks too old to begin a fresh franchise. No way is he going to look this buff 9 years down the line. Also he looks too grunt-ish for the role. I think he looks more like a Russell Crowe-type, a bit slower, tougher, slow build-up character than Bourne. Will see how the franchise pans out, but this is not a great start, its merely ok.
In contrast, his costar Weisz is absolutely caked in make-up which she doesnt even need to play a senior doctor. But she can manage a US accent these days with aplomb.
In the end I was sold on the movie, but only because I pretended Remner's character was the same guy from Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol...after remembering what he said in MI - 'We all have our secrets, dont we Ethan?' heehee.
