a drinking game where one drinks whenever they hear the word 'film' in a film review...?? Makes sense -_-

+Teebz 1000 I know but at least he can say "movie"

XD

5 shots every time Chris says "get Stuckmannized."

do i have to watch this movie before watching the 5 one ?

The fuck is your profile pic

a C for a Cross?... i got nothing...

I DONT WANT ANY UNITS FOLLOWING HIM CAUSE HE A BORING PIECE OF SHIT

.... The movie.

+Mr. GMAN's Channel haven't seen this movie and not planning to see it in the near future, but I just (re-)watched the original tirlogy and have to say that Bourne is only partially "human". To be exact, he is human in the 1st film (exept the very last scenes where he takes initiative and attacks the CIA, but that was OK for me). It's kind of ironic, that his "humanity" dies with his girlfriend in the beginning of the 2nd film. She was the only thing that made him vulnerable in this movie. Since then he is just butt-raping the CIA. He is like Hulk against Loki's army. From that on there is just no thrill at all and you know that no one will be able to endanger him. The fight scenes are maybe not completly "tensionless" but still very foreseeable. The only thrill that is the 3rd film is when Bourne tries to protect the "still human" journalist, but unfotunately he dies way to soon.

Spiderman 2

I actually like when the hero is a badass and not an idiot. I always like that way more, but it may just be me.

Not anymore

kingkingf You are wrong. There was still humanity in his character throughout these movies. He was never going to kill Nicky like that in Supremacy, where he is at his most darkest. In Ultimatum, he is fully coming to terms with everything he ever did. Then Jason Bourne (2016) came and decided to turn him into a bored street fighter.

+Kgaz Nope

Me too Bro, me too

What did I tell you?! 88 miles per hour!!!

1.21 gigawatts

+Tim Walden when this baby hits 88 miles an hour... You're gonna see some serious shit.

+LazyWhiteK1d Are you telling me this sucker is nuclear?!

+Tim Walden Yes

Nice!

Plz

Hawkeye would be very Cross with you for hating.

Ha, good one!

Fuck off

I'm with 'ya. Flawed, but still enjoyable

The abandonded house scene was probably my favorite part of the movie. I didn't enjoyed but I give it credit for some things.

al112v5 Yes, that house scene was incredible.

I own it. I'mwith you. Watched it twice last week.

Yes. And don't expect support. It was a cash grab, cheap attempt at a spin off which was basically trying so hard to tie the franchise with the movie that it paid so much more attention to Bourne instead of showing us something else

How was the script bland?

+Spar10Leonidas Well, I just grew a little bit too hateful the last time, but...here's the thing. You clearly didn't hear his criticisms. He didn't say that he didn't like it because it wasn't action-oriented. Heck, that's not even a reason that I don't like it. Even when the action is there, there really isn't much tension. I barely know anything about the drive of this character before he goes on his journey, which was really done much better in The Bourne Identity. His action journey only started when he realized he needed more pills. Bourne's journey started right from the beginning when he was trying to discover who he was when he woke up. I guess Cross doesn't necessarily have to have the drive delivered to him that early either, but even his drive I don't think was as compelling as Bourne's. We also barely know anything about this guy by the end of the movie.. And, like Stuckmann says, regardless of how this mythology goes, he just simply is not going up against anyone that could challenge him. That's a real waste of potential. I don't like the chems, or the fact that they had to do that to explain that that's how their skills worked, because that's just turning the series into a sci-fi movie (whereas it made much more sense to just torture the guys to become tough), but the worst part is more just the fact that he doesn't go up against anyone who can challenge him.

I think this is an 'ok' movie. For me, it was not boring, it was not a bad movie, I liked it, it was enjoyable. About the action, I would not call it a 'lack of action' but an acceptable, well constructed final action (in the third act). Btw, you get my point, I enjoyed it too.

Alan Alvarez my dad saw it on on demand while we were in Virginia at dad’s mom’s house he thinks it’s good and I think it’s horrible

Same here... It's the best in the series IMO.

The problem is that the agency doesn't have a lot of henchmen, ones that use guns. They dispatch a few people in each movie.

No

lol

lol

The Bored Legacy

I'm a fan of Ludlum's work, and the Bourne movies sets up the programs to create assassin's who are extremely capable through psychological conditioning. Legacy on the other hand retcons that idea and replaces it with a pill that grants them "superpowers", that in itself really detracts from what makes the Bourne movies. Legacy no longer feels human, it's feels directionless, it feels like a cash grab.

Anthony Good point. Not necessarily the only valid perspective, but definitely worth considering. But if Damon cared so much, shouldn't he have stayed on to forestall just such an eventuality?

Bevin Chu He stated he would stay on if Greengrass was going to do a sequel. As much as we like to think Damon is the driving force, we need to keep in mind that the actors are only a facet of a movie.

Anthony It depends on the actor. A list actors have immense leverage. Often everyone dances to their tune. Don't forget Damon, Affleck, et al are also respected producers.

Bevin Chu That too.

Alex Cross??? why??

+OrganismoPerfecto I think he means Aaron Cross

Nicolas Villegas​ it does say Aaron...lol..!!

+Nigel Gotty .......what the heck??

Aaron Cross vs. Jason Bourne 🔥👍

*tumbleweed rolls across screen*

It should've been it's own thing. The Bourne title set expectations too high for what this movie was at the time. If it was it's own thing with a different title and it hinted being set in the same universe as the other movies it would've been much better.

Smoky G hell no supremacy and ultimatum are way better than that legacy

Funniest shit I've read

I'm sorry, but I don't get those chemical things. What classic take on events is this? When did people actually like having chemicals take the place of really harsh mental conditioning like the previous movies? Better yet...when was this a classic trope of political or spy thrillers? If it was James Bond, it doesn't work in the Bourne universe, but it'd still be something. I don't even remember other spy thrillers using this concept of kind of enhancing medicine, but they can only do extreme stunts and...that's about it. It's actually kind of interesting on a level of, "Wow, they actually wrote this?", but not in a way that makes me think that this would exist in the world they set up. Jeremey Renner did fine for what he was supposed to, but his character isn't interesting. He wasn't looking for something better than himself, and he barely really changed even a small part of himself. He didn't have to lose his personality or lose some of the flaws we love about the guy, if there even were any (seriously, I don't remember anything about the guy). But this actor is really talented!! Renner is so talented! Why is his character so, so uninteresting? I would have been fine with a Bourne movie or a movie within that universe that wasn't Bourne, but they clearly want to be a Bourne movie in a certain way! The very title is not only the exact same font, but it has that exact same title presentation as the first movie!! Also in a very strange turn of events, this movie has a sound effect for everything. I don't remember if it was actually the full movie, but where the first movie just decided to let the title reveal itself, this movie adds computer beep typing/programming sound effects to it. The sun even gets its own sound effect in one scene. Even before I watched Legacy, I thought this series was a sci-fi series, since the trailer brought up the whole, "It's such an interesting development...in the SCIENCE!!" Where does that fit in this universe? When I was kind of watching the trailer for that movie, I was thinking, "Well, that must be what the Bourne series is about. The reviews look a little troubling, but...I guess is this what it's about, but we're mad that Bourne isn't in it?" Nope. The minute I finished the first movie, I loved it, but then had the troubling thought of....wait a second, then comes the fourth movie that brings in that really insane concept. Actually, that feeling didn't even come that strong with the first one, since I didn't even see the other two yet, so it's really by the third one that I started to have that feeling of hope flowing away from my head. It was gone right there, since not only did they not introduce that this is how it works in the first three movies, but the first three movies weren't even about how it works. This is kind of like a prequel since it shows behind the scenes stuff, but then it's also a not-quite continuation of what happens after Bourne exposed the agency's wrongdoings, yet it happens at the same time he does so. This really is a kind of uninteresting mess that at time is more interesting because of the choices they make. I guess because of this, I would almost be more interested in watching this than the fifth-ish movie, since that was more disappointing on the level that they had it's most compelling character back, and they made him only a little more compelling than Renner was, which is already a really low bar.

I actually like this one as much as Ultimatum. That's neither a good or a bad thing. I hated how much Bourne talked in Ultimatum, the same way I hated how much Cross talked in Legacy. But the action and tension was about the same. I mean, out of the two, you couldn't add scenes of CIA people gasping when they saw Cross on monitors, or fear in their eyes the same way that we saw in Bourne Identity. Bourne's a bigger and more ominous threat

+David Ibarra Agreed.

Yes it should have because it came from the same connective tissue that is the Bourne franchise. The Ludlum books don't just focus in on Jason Bourne, they also focus in on other characters who are like Bourne. One of them is Aaron Cross. He's in the book canon.

+obscuremedia actually Aaron Cross isn't in the books at all. he is a completely original character for the movie

Cassandra Morrison hell no cross is just a mediocre character not the best Jason Bourne is way better and more iconic

looking back now, I can see that this movie had a pretty solid concept. they could expand a whole new series with this character. but the piss poor execution ruined it

He's garbo and overly pretentious. He doesn't even deserve the shittest acting roles in Bollywood. That's how much I hate him as an actor.

Les Blair How did you like the Japanese evil guy crashing his bike into the wall or whatever? :) That's as spot on as it gets! :D

Absolutely

+AzuL4573 Yeah i ccant find them either

+AzuL4573 i was just looking for them cant find them anywhere

+AzuL4573 Yeah, I clicked the link after the review and it's not opened.

+AzuL4573 I remember when he was doing a review on the Mission Impossible Franchise, he stated that he got flagged for copyright issues due to him showing the trailers in his reviews or something like that (I don't know the details or how it works). Anyhow, this caused him to have to take those videos down and re-review them in a more appropriate light. Maybe the same thing happened with the last three. And judging by how the latest Bourne movie is being filmed right now, I'm sure he will eventually revisit the three previous films and do a countdown to when Bourne 5 hits theaters. Thus, he'll review that one too. At least this is what I would like to think. lol Because I love the Bourne films!!!...... except for this Legacy one -_-

***** oh nice :)

he hasn't reviewed them yet he said in his blu ray collection video that he would before Jason Bourne.

+Previous93 no he did have reviews of them. guess he took them down.

This is four years old

+Myles “JuS1aWeSoMeGuY” Johnson ah thanks nevemind. I thought this was the new Bourne movie.

+Alpha Rakama how could you think that, compare this video to his recent ones, you can tell this is old

At the beginning he mention the three previous reviews, I could see how someone could be confused.

+Kevin Kwok how you know that is coming up?? I'm excited!

+gadgetgeek96 he said it in his newest Blu-Ray collection video.

+Peter Henningsen He wasn't vulnerable enough!

I fell asleep watching Raiders of the Lost Ark on the theater two weeks ago.

Tim Walden what come on man raiders of the lost ark is good it’s the best Indiana Jones movie the worst Bond movie that I fell asleep on is skyfall never liked it because I’m not a big Daniel Craig Bond fan

Markus Anderson Ah ok thanks for the reply i figured it was something like that.

Identity and Supremacy were recently revisited.

This movie was not complex...it was indeed a cash grab. This film talked about stuff that didn't have much to do with anything. It was a convoluted mess of a film. This definitely deserves a C, and I don't think this was able to work even that well as a standalone thriller. This wasn't a very exciting movie or anything with at least some movement. Complex really allows one to absorb complicated themes. Even those films that are dramatic and such aren't filled with all talking. This film, however, was. I don't see how the books are a cash grab, because the movies were based off the books. Unfortunately, that's why this mess of a film got made...because there was a fourth book.

Jason Strong Movies Review I’m not a big Daniel Craig Bond fan but Aaron cross looks just like Daniel Craig when he’s James bond

v MIB 3 is ight I remember back in the day when I fell asleep on it, and Ted is great

Its not a reboot at all

Yeah. It's a look at the ripple effects that Bourne has on other operatives while he's in New York. I feel that if people paid attention to the fact that Bourne wasn't the only one of his kind, and Legacy hadn't been made, people would be begging to have a spinoff film about another operative like Bourne

***** Never said it was a reboot. In fact, the new film's (_Jason Borurne_) description on the trailer is marketing it as a "sequel to _The Bourne Legacy_." This film was basically film 4....with a spin-off feel.

review

Francisco Uy yes they played it at the end of the movie
