Good flick

Rating: 8/10 (17 February 2013)

This is an interesting view of the Bourne series, from another, parallel perspective. I had never seen Jeremy Renner before, but I thought his performance was excellent. I really grew to care for Aaron Cross. Rachel Weisz is terrific and beautiful as always. The drones/Hellfire missile sequences are scary as hell. I liked how a love affair grows out of the carnage that attends so much of the movie. Rather better than the 6.7 rating that it has so far drawn. It seemingly sets the scene for Aaron Cross and Jason Bourne to team up to really raise hell with some completely amoral Washington bureaucrats who think nothing of killing American heroes to protect their own sorry asses. Bring it on!
