By Bob Bloom (1,124) for Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) (1,017) on 24 Jul 2014

See Lucy simply to watch Johansson kick butt, spout some philosophy and, with the help of CGI, move through time and space with the casual…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Will Leitch (411) for Deadspin (356) on 24 Jul 2014

Holding all this together is Johansson, who has the exact right take on the material: slightly invested, mostly removed, observing it all with…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Michael Sragow (1,413) for Orange County Register (218) on 24 Jul 2014

In the showiest sequence, Lucy's body starts exploding into bursts of confetti. Even then, Johannson holds everything together…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By John Hanlon (483) for John Hanlon Reviews (327) on 24 Jul 2014

A movie about intelligence that isn't half as smart as it pretends to be…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Christopher Orr (399) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 24 Jul 2014

Besson has made very, very bad films in the past, but this is the first time he has presented one so idiotic that the only way to properly…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Chris Packham (159) for Village Voice (8,525) on 24 Jul 2014

Scarlett Johansson carries the film effortlessly, bridging Besson's narrative and logical ellipses by fully embracing his crowd-pleasing intentions…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Ben Kendrick (300) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 24 Jul 2014

Lucy will not speak to a wide audience but those that fall within its target reach should be rewarded with some thought-provoking science fiction…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Chris Sawin (379) for Examiner.com (1,617) on 24 Jul 2014

Ludicrous and atrocious in nearly every way, Lucy is absolutely brainless; which is quite ironic given the concept of the film…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Wesley Morris (1,967) for Grantland (318) on 24 Jul 2014

This movie worries that humanity is wasting its potential, which is a bizarre fear for a movie that has this many nonsensical shootouts…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Kirk Baird (274) for Toledo Blade (302) on 24 Jul 2014

Lucy is like a parody of pretentious filmmaking, only not as smart…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 24 Jul 2014

I know we’re supposed to think that Besson’s daffy cinematic calisthenics are entertaining because at least they are not boring…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Todd Jorgenson (1,852) for Cinemalogue.com (1,236) on 24 Jul 2014

Besson doesn't claim his latest globetrotting science-fiction thriller is based on fact, of course, but its ambitions are muddled by a lack…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Brad Keefe (343) for Columbus Alive (355) on 24 Jul 2014

No, you do not only use 10 percent of our brains - with the possible exception of when you are watching a Michael Bay movie…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Rob Vaux (1,125) for Mania.com (396) on 24 Jul 2014

Lucy is either the dumbest smart film or the smartest dumb film I've ever seen…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By David Kaplan (436) for Kaplan vs. Kaplan (1,174) on 24 Jul 2014

Besson squanders a chance to make his film a really powerful one…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Chris Klimek (121) for NPR (1,713) on 24 Jul 2014

Lucy is a welcome reminder of just how much Besson's wry sensibility as a filmmaker adds to movies like this…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Kurt Loder (858) for Reason Online (497) on 24 Jul 2014

Besson thrives on this sort of baloney, and his enthusiasm can be infectious…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By David Edelstein (2,124) for New York Magazine/Vulture (3,519) on 24 Jul 2014

An outlandishly entertaining mixture of high silliness and high style…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Rob Thomas (1,118) for Madison Movie (219) on 24 Jul 2014

It's like he wants to make his own 2001, but can't resist putting in a climactic gunfight between HAL and Dave…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Bill Clark (530) for FromTheBalcony (528) on 24 Jul 2014
