      Terribly underrated. I like the Bourne films (the actual legacy films), but this is the most rewatchable of the series. Cross is good fun, I like Shearing, the plot is enthralling, the action scenes are classic Bourne, and Ed Norton is one of my favorite villains.

    The medication in this movie was not given to Jason. He was an earlier program that focused only on mental programming and conditioning.
    This was the next evolution of the process adding in chemical augmentation.
    The guy at the end hunting them was the next next step. Though we don’t see what that was.
    This movie is semi canonically attached but isn’t really acknowledged in the final film.

      The pursuer is from the LARX Program. The point they make about it is thatthey have been able to suppress empathy. This makes the agent willing to do whatever is asked, without any qualms.

    I loved the world-building aspect of this film. How Outcome (Hawkeye and Star Wars Guy) differed from Treadstone (Bourne), how they differed from LARX (the final agent they had to escape). All these different programs, some using chems, some not, operating with the people at the reins often not knowing the others exist. It just enhances the whole franchise for me. Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for the fun reaction! 👍

    Jeremy Renner is a dang good actor. The Hurt Locker was his breakout role. He did a great job in this movie for the shoes he had to fill. There were no plans for Matt to return to the franchise, so the studio tried continuing the story with Jeremy.

Most importantly, you guys will at least be able to see it! I apologize in advance for the choppy nature of the video, but it was either that or nothing.

      That was the Gary Webb movie if I’m not mistaken. Real life hero of mine, the journalist who proved the CIA trafficked coke to the US. With Col. Ollie North’s help. You can actually find Ollie North’s journal at the National Security Archives which I recommend if you are into uncovering what the CIA really has done. It is the repository of all documents obtained through the freedom of information act. Found at George Washington University. Also I highly recommend reading Senator John Glenn’s Committee on Non-consensual human experimentation. It has details of the Tuskegee experiment and numerous others even testimony by subjects of MK Ultra. Who name doctors and institutions involved. It’s good reading. Also one of the MK Ultra doctors was Dr. Geoffrey Bourne Sr. Head of Psychiatry at the Grenada Mental Hospital. Coincidentally or not that building in Grenada was the only bombed during our invasion of Grenada in the late 80s.

    Had a great time watching your reaction to a movie franchise I very much enjoy (yet your other commentaries are equally as fun). Highlights for me in this fourth installation were the lore on the different CIA programs, the use of medication for enhancements, and the way it took place parallel to the events of Ultimatum. And like you said quite the cast, with lots of established actors. Though the first time I watched TBL it was hard for me to get properly invested tbh. This was due to the shift in tone of the film -the first three movies felt darker and more depressing to me - and the less introverted, energetic personality of the lead (Renner). Not to mention I was used to Bourne's story, as we bonded with him throughout his trilogy.
    Nowadays I can appreciate this film much more, and it's sad we didn't get to continue this particular journey. I like to think our leads succesfully escaped, with the goverment no longer chasing them. Basically giving them the happy ending Bourne never got.
    Renner's romantic dynamic with Weisz also provided a refreshing contrast to how difficult it was for Bourne to emotionally connect to people like Marie and Nicky. Still, the way romance was portrayed for both characters suited their personality and story.

    If you want some more Jeremy Renner in a great movie, I recommend The Hurt Locker.
    As far as The Bourne Legacy goes, if they had left the word "Bourne" out of the title and made the ties to the previous 3 movies weaker and less prominent, there would have been more time to focus on Aaron & Marta. For me, it feels like they chopped off part of what would have been a good movie (in its entirety) to add in stuff that would sell more tickets. Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed it as much as you did.

    I'm glad you reacted to this movie, I thought it was a very good addition to the bourne franchise. even though Oscar Isaac had a small role, I really liked the interaction between Renner's character and his.. There's a lot of possibilities for more bourne stories imo. I'd love to see Renner and matt damon together in a bourne movie. but I think Oscar Isaac could make a good lead in a bourne movie (we never saw him die so he could have gotten away somehow). I also really liked Clive Owen's character in the first movie, even though it was really brief. I like the idea of these programmed supersoldier "drones" who for some reason become aware of their own autonomy. they're really tragic characters in a sense.. slaves basically, until something or someone comes along to wake them up

Renner tries not to kill anyone, except for CIA bad guys. He is trying to solve a puzzle with Weisz. Jason Bourne was an add-on because Damon had so much star power. They paid him a lot to play the role again but I don’t think Damon liked doing it. I think it is just ok but maybe you will like it.
