Critics Consensus: The Bourne Legacy

NOTE: There was no posts for a week because I was on vacation in Hawaii. Sorry for the confusion.
2nd NOTE: This post will be more complicated then previous one's because this is a giant release for the movie industry. So why not have a giant post?
Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is The Bourne Legacy a reboot of the Bourne movies.
Plot\Writing:
The Bourne Legacy's plot is a bit of a stir-up. It differs from the first 3 movies and is a reboot. The Toronto Star said the writing was fine even though they did not really like the movie. Slate stated that the last hour of the movie was incoherently plotted and lastly Geeknation complained about the ending. So the plot flops around like a flounder that was just catched and that's bad news.
Acting:
Entertainment Weekly praised the acting from Jeremy Renner and so did Rotten Tomatoes. The lead actress Rachel Weisz was praised by Leonard Martin. The acting is not as solid as the Matt Damon's acting in the last 3 Bourne movies but is still pretty strong.
Special Effects:
Like The Dark Knight Rises not that many critics praised the special effects or even talked about it and the only thing I could get was The Philadelphia Inquirer praising the futuristic gadgets in the movie.
Overall:
Overall The Bourne Legacy is generic and a solid action movie. It is the weakest in the franchise but still might be fun to watch. See this is you wanna and do not if you do not want to see it.
