Review of Lucy

Lucy (I) (2014)
5/10
10% Smart, 90% Dumb
3 February 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Unfortunately the movie is built around the myth that we only use 10% of our brain and that, on it's own, is not true, if we used only 10% we wouldnt still be more than dumb primates trying to open a banana while jumping on top of it.

Now that i got that out of the way the movie on its own starts promissing and interesting until they decide to start using telekinesis and limb construction/manipulation stuff, also the story has no essence at its core, same clichê vilains, same clichê car chases and gunfires.

I mean Lucy is smart but she uses more her "external" skills than her brains and that places her smarts far far behind the likes of characters like Jason Bourne and James Bond.

Its a funny movie and i know it wasnt meant to be realistic but god damn, they really exagerated a bit on this one. Also I hope you like Pen Drives with 2.045.114.454.456.447 TBs of Space. This movie really has "everything" but ultimately not that much.
