Even 2012's Bourne Legacy - a feature where it was ever so clear that Damon had been offered a fortune just to walk-on and smile at the camera, but refused anyway - was a solid movie, great script, held the attention, and Renner did a great job. They are an adrenaline rush, the perfect mix of story, form, and effect.

As a top reviewer here with some 1200 reviews under my belt I said more than once that the original was the best spy trilogy I had ever seen and I am unashamed of the fact that I have seen each film in that series four or five times since original release.

The original Bourne trilogy was not merely good, it was superb. Nonetheless for those members who gave this a high rating more out of frustration than anything else, I do feel your pain.

Actually reviews are not supposed to be based on wishful thinking.
