Alicia Vikander was so miscast - mid 20 year old 2nd in command of CIA??

the movie was enjoyable overall. too much trite 'technology' shots on screen along with outlandish timeframes of activating communications.

however, pretty much everytime Vikander was on screen I just thought that she gave me no feeling that she had the chops to be in the position that she had in the movie. And her line near the end about 'these are my people, i understand them' about adapting the CIA to the Millenials..... too precious.

could have used better editing.

Vincent Cassel was spot on like always.

I think her steely demeanor helped sell it for me.

But mostly she was easy on the eyes.

She was good in another movie I saw her in, but he was terrible in this. Bad accent and the "tough girl" role doesn't work for her.

Not to mention, nevermind her being in her twenties, she looks like a teenager ! They need them to look that young now ?

The amount of times she said "Yes sir" and gave Tommy Lee Jones stink eye was ridiculous.

Sure, almost as bad as Julia Stiles as an intel logistics expert at age 21 in the first movie.

Yep. Miscast. For what reason would Bourne come back in?
