THE BOURNE LEGACY [2012]

Jeremy Renner confidently steps into the Bourne franchise, in Tony Gilroy's The Bourne Legacy (oddly enough it's not based on the novel of the same name).
It certainly isn't as tightly wound as the first three films but it's got enough style, ridiculous, yet credible action scenes and chilled slick performances to make up for it.  
If anything, Renner proved that he is a worthy replacement to prevent the film from being called The Bourne Redundancy.
