Before seeing the trailer, I'd been thinking that Bourne without Bourne would seem to be a risky proposition at best. But it's a good cast, and they seem to be setting the right tone here, so as long as they can hurdle the somewhat unusual mainstream marketing challenge ("Yes it's called Bourne, no, Bourne is not in it. And oh, by the way, the story is not the same as the Bourne Legacy book."), they might something good here. Still, if they deliver the quality explodo on opening weekend, the rest won't matter.
