Review of Lucy (2014)

By Daniel Eagan (552) for Film Journal International (5,095) on 23 Jul 2014

If the narratives never quite mesh, Besson still handles them with his typical verve. Lucy moves with a focus and determination that is bracing…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 23 Jul 2014

Loony and laughable...There's something outlandish about Besson trying to infuse ideas into his usual jumble of over-the-top action and comic-book…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Chris Barsanti (896) for PopMatters (2,617) on 23 Jul 2014

If you surgically grafted a snippet of 'Flowers for Algernon' and a low-end documentary about the human brain onto a Cliff Notes summary of…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Chris Bumbray (988) for JoBlo's Movie Emporium (1,959) on 23 Jul 2014

Truly eccentric…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Matt Singer (625) for The Dissolve (1,478) on 23 Jul 2014

Lucy earns points for its unpredictable treatment of its vaguely superhero-ish premise and an appealing silliness, but it struggles to match…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Ignatiy Vishnevetsky (836) for AV Club (2,778) on 23 Jul 2014

It comes across, instead, as a directorial flight of fancy, an imaginatively goofy take on an already goofy idea, exaggerated by Besson’s…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Keith Uhlich (870) for Time Out (7,510) on 23 Jul 2014

The funny thing about all these sub-Matrix shenanigans is that they’re genuinely meant to stoke thought and reflection…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Kyle Smith (1,916) for New York Post (6,650) on 23 Jul 2014

In a captivating climax, the movie turns attractively freaky, though somewhat marred by cheesy special effects, and there’s a huge debt to…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Moira Macdonald (1,892) for Seattle Times (3,524) on 23 Jul 2014

It's both a fascinating and a ridiculous idea, but one that's fun to watch, particularly as Besson wisely keeps the film trimmed to a quick-as-a-lightning-bolt…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Dana Stevens (1,435) for Slate (2,081) on 23 Jul 2014

An entertainment choice I wouldn’t recommend, but one you might not regret if you dial your expectations down (or your drug intake up)…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Peter Travers (3,602) for Rolling Stone (4,035) on 23 Jul 2014

Remember Limitless, the 2011 thriller in which Bradley Cooper becomes a whirling killer dervish from a drug that lets him access 100 percent…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Richard Roeper (2,737) for Chicago Sun-Times (7,580) on 23 Jul 2014

Besson has always demonstrated the ability to chuckle at the madness of his own material, and he provides some solid laughs from time to time…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Clay Cane (203) for BET.com (238) on 23 Jul 2014

With my limited ten percent brain capacity, it's possible that I couldn't grasp the film's greatness ... but I doubt it. Lucy is bland on arrival…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Jeffrey Lyles (696) for Lyles' Movie Files (591) on 23 Jul 2014

The latest disappointing effort from Luc Besson, is probably the closest you'll come to a very bad sci-fi acid trip…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Dustin Putman (2,479) for TheFilmFile.com (2,314) on 23 Jul 2014

A movie of tireless ideas and exciting stylistic panache…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Charles Koplinski (232) for Illinois Times (232) on 23 Jul 2014

Lucy ends up being one of the more pleasant surprises in this bleak summer, proving to be far more substantial than you'd expect…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Daniel M. Kimmel (1,403) for New England Movies Weekly (716) on 23 Jul 2014

behind the shootings and special effects is a smart movie that may surprise you…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Nell Minow (2,357) for Beliefnet (937) on 23 Jul 2014

I think Luc Besson only used 10% of his brain in writing this…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Cammila Collar (16) for TV Guide (1,527) on 23 Jul 2014

If you can forgive or ignore those faults, Lucy delivers the goods by the end, both as a brainy thought experiment and as a summer popcorn flick…

Review of Lucy (2014)

By Bruce Demara (410) for Toronto Star (3,601) on 23 Jul 2014

No one onscreen has the answers to the lofty questions Besson poses and, despite all the dizzying and splendid imagery of the film's closing…
