Lucy

I've always like things about the brain what will we achieve in the future so I've been tell that we as humans only use 10 percent of our brains. As I've grown old I've always thought about books, films and the idea of the power of the brain as always fascinated me. I'd like the idea of someone's imagination turning their thoughts into a book or even a film, like " Lucy" . So when this film of Syfy was coming out I was looking forward to going to the pictures to see it. Unfortunately being on a low income sometimes means things like going to see films we can't do. So I'll have to wait to this film comes onto Netflix. Anyway here's hoping that I'll see it soon. This is going to be a good film so I'm looking forward to it. I'll then do a review about the film. So I do hope the people that have seen it have enjoyed it, here's wahcting. DG

This movie is terribly flawed. For starters, it flies in the face of all we know about how our world works and pushes egregious pseudoscience. But even if one suspends disbelief (this is a work of fiction anyway) the script fails to create a world that is internally consistent. Character motivations are nowhere to be found. The script relentlessly pushes forward haphazardly, going so preposterously over the top that it stops being funny and becomes agonizing. The only way to enjoy this movie is to have a consistently short attention span of, say, 10 seconds. Any more and the movie becomes unwatchable due to its ludicrous inconsistencies.

This movie can't make up its mind whether it's a treatise on the nature of existence or a tarantinoesque killfest and tries to do both and fails. Badly. Morgan Freeman looks dazed and confused throughout. Scarlett Johansson only has to act for the first 20 mins and then just phones it in for the remainder. Luc Besson doesn't bother himself worrying about small details like the laws of physics. By the second half you're looking to see how long is left as you remember you forgot to put the bins out.
