The Bourne Legacy
One of the best action series of all time gets an extra chapter in "The Bourne Legacy". Series screenwriter and "Legacy" director Tony Gilroy does a great job of extending the story in an interesting way and Jeremy Renner is up to the task as the new super spy. Rachel Weisz and Edward Norton are equally capable in new supporting roles which flesh out an intense and action-packed addition to the Bourne franchise. Why the low score you ask? Despite the aforementioned positive traits, the film's interesting premise ultimately gives way to an incomplete story arc with a pointless climax and virtually no resolution whatsoever. In the end, this promising new entry felt like bait to get Matt Damon to sign on for more movies.
