Movie review: ‘The Bourne Legacy’ (VIDEO REVIEW)

Trying to assess “The Bourne Legacy” as I would any other movie is difficult, and it’s because of the film’s unfortunate timing.

About 45 minutes into the movie, a man armed with a 9-millimiter semiautomatic handgun walks into a medical lab and dispassionately starts shooting his co-workers. As the victims scramble under desks and duck into supply closets to escape the gunman, you can’t help but think that the recent scene inside the Sikh temple in Oak Creek, Wis., looked something like this. And of course, that leads to thinking about the “Dark Knight Rises” shootings in Colorado.
