“Activism is a way for useless people to feel important, even if the consequences of their activism are counterproductive for those they claim to be helping and damaging to the fabric of society as a whole.” - Dr Thomas Sowell
Decent film. More of a thinker than an action movie.
ScarJo is good, although sometimes so good, she's awkward.
The biggest problem with the movie is that the person writing it doesn't use more than 10% of their brain, and thus, wouldn't have a clue what one can do. I will say this: her ability to strategize and predict what other people will do doesn't seem to be affected by her expanding brain capacity.
In other words, the Honest Trailers guys will have a field day with this movie. (Or is it the screen junkie guys? Or are they the same?)

I liked it better than the 66% it has on Rotten Tomatoes, maybe say 80%.
Luc Besson, as always, tries to be clever with his directing.
The only part that bugged me was near the end when shit is going down and she does nothing to stop it, because she is hitting 99% of her potential.... what, is she distracted or something? I don't know. Maybe she realized none of that shit was important.
I didn't mind Morgan Freeman's character... he was apparently the top brain theoretician in the world, and Lucy needed context for what was happening to her. It's lucky for all of us that he was a good guy and gave her good advice.
