Share

lucy

A woman, accidentally caught in a dark deal, turns the tables on her captors and transforms into a merciless warrior evolved beyond human logic.

PROS

  • Great performances by Scarlet Johansson and Morgan Freeman .
  • Intriguing story line that gets you thinking .

CONS

  • The movie gets a bit confusing towards the end .
  • The characters were not properly developed .

FAVORITE QUOTES

Lucy: Life was given to us a billion years ago, and now you know what to do with it.

Professor Norman: We humans are more concerned with having than with being.

CONCLUSION 

Upon watching the trailer for ‘Lucy’ i was interested to watch it ,as it reminded me of another movie , ‘Limitless” that i thought had a similar theme .  Lucy is a very interesting ,thought provoking movie .  It makes you think what the human mind is really capable of if used to its full potential .

It is action packed, unpredictable , a very exciting movie, although towards the end it gets a bit weird and confusing,  but that is all part of the fun .

“Lucy” is one of those great “what if” films you occasionally stumble across that has you thinking long after it’s ended.

  1. Watched this months ago in London. Nothing confusing about the ending though.

    You see, after taking the tablets designed to open up more channels of the human brain, she and the Morgan Freeman professor agree upon her insistence that she would give up her human form so as to become part of the ‘universe’ at large. She and prof. ‘Plug’ her in to a giant computer so that she loses human form and becomes a sort of intelligent machine which can provide answers to all life’s mysteries. It’s all metaphysics and stuff, like wormholes and other parallel universe! Hope that helps!
