In an accident, the package and the contents tears sits in her body freely, which allowed her to take advantage of not only how else 10% of their brain, but much more
Do not worry, there will be no spoilers!
The plot is crazy as we already noted, and you must not it be hoped that everything stated here logically. The film itself tells the story with a wink, but still with enough seriousness. And I do not know how other people see it, but it is precisely these crazy ideas that I personally love and belonging to the canvas. Luc Besson gives us here a colorful trip in which everything is possible! Once Lucy developed their skills, it is always surprised how people in their environment. The nice thing is that Lucy developed by sentient humans to something abstract. Similar to Her her mind potentially the limits of human existence continues to develop fully until it exceeds. And that's really great to see!
There are really good action and even if this is not the center of the film, the fight choreographer and shootings make it fun. The really only thing I could criticize, are the wildlife videos at the beginning, but that's only a tiny gripe, about which I can easily overlook, with such a film! I personally do not mind also that the secondary characters are not actually removed, because after all, it is about Lucy. In that respect I think it's great that the film has no real advance in which introducing slowly the character of her. Here we go literally right and that I love anyway.
The effects are not at the level of films such as Avatar, but not brauchts. The effects are to tell the story and they do and there are many moments in the film which are optically really great!
The actors are all great, besides Johansson should really be known only Morgan Freeman as brain researchers. But Johansson is the course that all steals the show. She is a wonderful actress and it shows once more in this strip. From start to finish I buy her everything from just the phone call with her mother is heartbreaking, while the scenes later can have a really cut down with her and almost fear makes. This is in my eyes really great!
I also like the end of what has also been criticized by some, but I find it very appropriate and also provides a kind of twinkle in his eye again. It can be a little decide what you make of the film.
Last but not least: the music. Eric Serra composed a vibrant and very appropriate score that maybe something is sometimes too much, but what is happening in many places gives even more weight, I think.
Conclusion: I still have a big smile when I think of the film. Lucy is not just a movie, could boost a terrific, crazy idea, but also a film that may even thought-provoking. In addition, however, he also offers great action, a pinch of black humor, a fantastic actress ('m glad not Angelina Jolie has accepted the role, she was actually intended) and a really good end, I think. Should Although not everyone will love Lucy, see you this film definitely! For me Besson's best film!
