Awful
Good acting as you would expect. But did not hold my interest for entire movie.. Too bad it had promise
I go to a movie mostly to be entertained, not to necessarily get into great esoteric discussions. This movie started out quite interesting and did hold my interest through at least 3/4's of the movie. But then it really began to lose it and get truly wierd and preachy. I don't need or want to get into some theoretical show on evolution. That being said, Scarlett Johansson and Morgan Freeman were great, as always.
I thought I knew what I wanted to do with my life, however after watching this movie I don't know what I want out of life anymore. Only thing I know for certain is I want my money back and all the time I lost watching this.
Illogical, superficial, atheist - typical Hollywood
To short but if you are not on the journey of self discovery you might not get the message. It is trying to convet. Good story.
A thriller movie from beginning to end, a must see if you haven't watched it yet.
If you are looking for a superficial Marvel-Comics action romp, you will be disappointed. Even the blurb posted for the movie is misleading. So are the trailers. While Lucy plays out as a tightly-paced thriller along with some uber-violance, it is more of a deeper contemplation on human evolution that poses--if you take the time to listen to the discourse--deeper questions on our human journey (women, particularly) as explored through human intellect, compassion, and what it means to exist in our "limited" human bodies; ultimately, whenever something is gained, something is usually lost. Brava, Lucy (both of you!)
Visually, very good; the rest, not so much.
If you like science fiction movies you will love this movie! Fast paced from start to finish. Awesome! Finally... not a hollywood fluff movie like all the rest.
