Aside from the first Bourne, I think this is the most compelling story line of them all. The last movie was weak. I think they should continue the series with Renner.

[@tringuyen7519]

The science to create super soldiers essentially used as deep cover spies and assassins by politicians. We’re only a decade away from this capability. The film basically states that the politicians would be drunk on such powers. What would Aaron Cross do after breaking the chains that bound him? What should he do?

[@ddkeegs]

"We're transitioning everyone in the program."

[@devinwilson816]

Talking about Bourne. I've watch all his movies including this one with another character who is like him, it shows they may have been taking some drug all the time which caused them to be in pain. From the start someone told Jason that he was sick or like feeling pain all the time after he kill him. So this movie may have shown what's really going on with all the assassins including Jeremy Renner character.

[@mcurgs]

No, they said earlier in the movie that Bourne was "first gen, non-med" so aside from behavioral modifications, Bourne and the other Treadstone operatives have amazing training and superhuman qualities. But no drugs were involved with them

[@Laura-op6ix]

Why would they *kill* those skilled operatives instead of just pulling them out of where they were working?

[@michaelleach3772]

They don’t want them to go rogue and expose them for what they are - as Bourne was doing at the very same time

[@NekoGmnz]

When you know so much and have to cover so much classified information they wack you.

[@alexcross2479]

Cause it's a movie.

[@isaak9155]

The Outcome program was unique-it combined physical prowess with mental acuity, but there was no brainwashing. This meant that agents could still feel emotions, worry, and experience concerns. After the failure with Bourne, the leaders were afraid of getting ten more "Bournes" and decided to eliminate them before they could go out of control.

They are trained to do what their handlers tell them, and purposefully given only the information they need to handle the mission. They also know the consequences of refusal - they are assassinated by other operatives.

[@jordapen]

We're burning down the house.

[@anthonylewis2080]

Only downsides about "Legacy" is a number of characters aren't referred to by name onscreen (scene set in the café with Byer and a senior military officer is an example) and Oscar Isaac - in my view - doesn't really add much to the story. Besides that, there should be a sequel to this as Jeremy Renner is equally brilliant as Matt Damon - worth noting.

[@SuperChuckRaney]

The unknown sequel is already made, Denzel leaves the program to freelance at Home Depot, cause he figured it out.

[@jeffghant4760]

I think the general is named Don. Rick says it at the end of the convo. Also, Oscar is the first agent in the franchise to interact with the protagonist without trying to kill him. Just a bit of trivia.

[@TheMasterStudent]

this scene was typical plot armor for me bc how does highly trained and genetically enhanced (physically and cognitively) soldiers not pick up on what’s happening here? 😂

[@jamierichardson7683]

When did meds enter the scene? No mention of them at all in the first movie

[@wynzavian2000]

I’m surprised they got them to take the meds. As it shows in a deleted scene that the program participants did not trust outcome. They hoarded pills, cash, passports weapons. Which is why it’s probably a deleted scene. This is why one of the outcome patients also questioned the doctor about going under for a full spec physical. The rest was more paranoid than Aaron.

People will be people. No matter what country you're from, you will always find corruption.

Even a strict government like the Islamic Government can have corruption. The only Government that will not have corruption is the Government of Imam Al-Mahdi
