Much better than it had any right to be thanks in part to its two lead actors (Jeremy Renner and Rachel Weisz), who work acting miracles with a poor script.

The first 30 minutes I'm thinking boy everyone has this wrong. Then it loses steam and I'm out. Okay movie.

This is definitely not a legacy. Poor imitation of the original trilogy.

Don't understand why people didn't like the movie. It's as good as the rest of this franchise. It also has a great twist. I guess people didn't like that the main character was replaced.

I've always preferred this to the first three Bourne films. None of the films follow the storylines of the books very well, so why penalize this one for adding new material? Especially since the new material is both interesting and thrilling. I had hoped that they would turn this into the start of a new Bourne Universe, but I don't think the newest Bourne film really expands this sufficiently.
