Review of Lucy (2014) by Otrebor O — 09 Mar 2015
It truly saddens me when a trailer sets up a movie with such great potential and then just falls utterly flat. Lucy looked good with Johansson as this kick-ass woman who "used 100% of her brain" and kicked butt. Now, the first MAJOR flaw of this movie was the science associated with it. The whole 10% vs 100% debacle about humans using their full capacity. EVEN when attempting to get past that, the movie just feels blah. They even triggered an intriguing aspect with the element CPH4 I think it was and it made me want to believe the story even more...but by the end of the movie you're left just empty. Wanting to believe that humankind can evolve, etc etc.
Again, it had potential if this was done right instead of this messed up science idea.
