57% only so far. Yikes. Bourne Legacy levels so far.
Hopefully it goes up.

Update: 66% now!

 

[Grizzlyjin]

I was able to enjoy Bourne Legacy, so maybe I'll dig this. These are decent matinee films for me, I've never been super engrossed in the story or characters.

That's Ike double the amount of lines he has in the film!

 

[ZeroX03]

Not many reviews so far.

Already have my tickets booked. I trust in Greengrass and Damon. That said, living up to how consistently good the original trilogy was is a tough ask for anyone.

 

[XANDER CAGE]

That's a shame, I hope it'll at least be entertaining. I loved the original trilogy and with Greengrass coming back I was kinda expecting it to at least be decent.

 

[Strax]

Going to a press screening tomorrow. Kind of wish I didn't see the RT score beforehand.

 

[John Kowalski]

I'm watching it anyway.

 

[Slaythe]

I mean Ghostbusters has 73% so we established Rt is completely unreliable at this point.

 

[obin_gam]

Jason Bourne is like SPECTRE without any of the good parts. And if you're saying to yourself, "SPECTRE has good parts?" then let me assure you, compared to Jason Bourne it does.

that's gotta hurt :/

 

[LiK]

Damon lied to us.

 

[One Foul Note]

I actually enjoyed Legacy more then Supremacy and Ultimatium, so perhaps I'll end up really liking this one too.

 

[kurahador]

Aww man...

Except most who aren't burdened by some MRA agenda would posit that that is what it deserves so... What?

 

[Scientist Supreme!]

It really just sounds like another one these movies, which doesn't particularly interest me.

I guess this made more sense in your head.

Want me to post all the woman reviewers that hated it too or you're gonna go on with the sexist bullshit ?

I guess this made more sense in your head.

I stand by what I said. It doesn't deserve this score at all.

 

[jelly]

Still think the first film is the best one except the silly surf the body end.

Greengrass did a decent job with the others but they just repeat themselves and become a bit of a serious parody. The trailer for this new one makes me think not a lot has changed.

 

[danthefan]

This is devastating. I watched all the others in the last week or so. Was really looking forward to this film.

 

[RoKKeR]

Well damn.

Still gonna go see it.

Let's just nip this derail in the bud right here.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Ok, sorry. Removed

 

[Sojgat]

This is from seven reviews.

People really only look at the number, don't they? Critics could probably just post a score at this point, it's like nobody bothers reading anyway.

 

[Dash_Riprock]

As someone who hated SPECTRE, that's a brutal thing to say.

that's why we go to RT.

 

[br0ken_shad0w]

Worst than SPECTRE? Ouch =(

I'll still try to see it but that's not reassuring as SPECTRE was one of the worst movies I've seen.

 

[User 479360]

Not surprised

The trailer and TV spots have done nothing for me. And I liked the original Bourne movie (not so much the others I watched). I'll be passing for sure.

 

[SpaceWolf]

I liked SPECTRE...

 

[HalfBakedProphet]

Don't care. Day one

 

[sammyCYBORG]

that's gotta hurt :/

That's absolutely fucking brutal.

 

[MarkMclovin]

I'm invested in the series so I'm watching it anyway, but yeah....

 

[soundscream]

I was going to be disappointed but then I clicked and saw its only seven reviews and the outlets I'm familiar with gave it a fresh, so I'll wait a bit before being bummed out.

 

[Sanjuro]

Jesus Christ...

Spoiler

Oh my God...

 

[Dabanton]

I like reviews but I usually like reading them after I see a movie.

Yo, that's rough. I already purchased tickets and they are non refundable.

 

[Grazzt]

Pity. But will watch it this weekend anyway.

Suicide is the only option.

Or you can sneak into Bad Moms. However, you may want to opt for the first option anyway. Truly a no win situation.

 

[Indelible]

I had a feeling this might get average reviews, seems pretty unnecessary after Ultimatum wrapped up the series so well. I will still probably enjoy it just like Legacy but I'am in no rush to see it.

 

[Fat4all]

Suicide is painless, it brings on many changes.

But Bad Moms looks like hell on earth in comparison.

7 reviews only though, so that's not saying much.

It also has a 9.2 on IMDb

lol

The seven reviews point is valid, but IMDb scores mean less than shit even compared to Rotten Tomatoes. Time and time again, people have been shown to rate the film before it's released. Either extremely high or extremely low. It will settle into a 7.0 like every other fucking score on IMDb lol

 

[strafer]

you guys let RT control your life waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to much

Even Kung Pow: Enter the Fist has a 6.2, and even though I love that movie I don't see how it got higher than a 4.5

'control you life'? It's just a metric.

 

[Dash_Riprock]

Here we go...

 

[ItIsOkBro]

People were elated at the 25 lines thing but it had me worried as shit.

 

[Violet_0]

that Spectre comment, though

 

[oti]

As someone who hated SPECTRE, that's a brutal thing to say.

Yikes.

 

[Shiggy]

Not gonna watch it in cinema then. Waiting for it to be available online.

OMG, Spectre was pretty terrible.

 

[ZeroX03]

I love that movie and have seen it a bunch of time. It's terrible.

People were elated at the 25 lines thing but it had me worried as shit.

I watched Supremacy the other night and there's long sequences where he doesn't say a word. After Marie dies he's speechless for nearly 20 minutes. He basically only talks when he needs information, the action sequences have little to no dialogue either.

 

[kurahador]

Here we go...

BvS review round 2? Or are we waiting for Suicide Squad review thread.

Btw...this is the only Bourne movie Tony Gilroy isn't involved in apparently.
So Greengrass+Gilroy works, one of them alone isn't.
