Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
Shares crucial DNA with the earlier films but is drawn from the shallower end of the gene pool.

Perhaps the most interesting question arising from The Bourne Legacy is just how long the filmmakers hope to trade on the Bourne name without any, you know, Bourne.

fresh:
Renner and Weisz work well together as two hunted souls who initially need each other for utilitarian reasons.

rotten:
Gilroy's a fine writer - he also penned Michael Clayton - but without the discipline of an action veteran like Greengrass to rein him in, he indulges his weakness to over-explain things.

rotten:
It's twists and turns and nothing else. And fast and furious as it may be, if this is the best this once-smart series has to offer, this is no legacy.
