Last time Matt Damon, star of the original 'Bourne' trilogy, was out doing press, he said he hadn't seen "The Bourne Legacy," this past summer's extensive reboot of the franchise that placed Jeremy Renner at the center of the action. The film upped the franchise's science-factual underpinnings by having Renner's character (part of the next generation of government-sanctioned killers) controlled by a series of drugs that would boost his reflexes and intelligence. When we spoke with Damon about the sequel/prequel yesterday, during the actor's press rounds for the upcoming "Promised Land," he did confirm that he's seen the movie but said that it might make it harder for him to re-enter the franchise.
In a world where monsters attack at night, we see yet another world, post-apocalypse, where a handful of people struggle to survive.
Crime Scene Berlin-Nightlife Killer Review: This documentary series really drops the ball with its storytelling.
In a movie that largely sidesteps what the war is about, “Civil War” puts us in the point of view of journalists who make it clear there are no heroes in war, just dead bodies.
I've always thought that he wouldn't come back as much as I'd like him to.
Renner is a great actor but I don't think he fit this movie very well. Maybe I'm just a little bias but Damon will always the best secret government project.
I loved Damon but I also love Renner so it wouldn't bother me obviously Damon was the ultimate and hes hard to replace but I think Renner did I bloody good job
Renner was good and he's a good actor. I think my expectaions were just too high. I will still go see the second one that I think they still intend to make. I want to see where they take this.
Damon fits the role perfectly. I loved the original trilogy and the story. The new one is alright. Nothing special.
