Like most who watch director Wes Anderson’s finely tuned onscreen imaginings, the audience for Tuesday night’s Moonrise Kingdom was fixated on a world of whimsy, hope and desperation.

Who said that good film series should stop at three? The latest of the Bourne series and the first not based on Robert Ludlum’s Jason Bourne novels, The Bourne Legacy is less sequel, somewhat prequel and mostly spin-off - not necessarily tying up events which unfolded in The Bourne Ultimatum, but cleverly working together with the series' third film, rebooting the franchise but never aiming to re-brand it ala The Amazing Spiderman or Dark Knight Trilogy did with their superhero figures.
