Terribly cheesy but well-paced and comes to a compelling climax

Rating: 6/10 (21 March 2019)

Terribly heavy-handed, from its pointless visual metaphors (the pursuing bad guy is the cheetah, Lucy is the antelope, wow, nice one) to Freeman's excruciating presentation (yes let's hear "cerebral capacity" said one more time, thanks) to its bad plot exposition (see Lucy mind-reading and saying what we already see). All of this said, it's got a good action-thriller pace, and the extremes it goes to with its concept in the end are actually pretty compelling (if still presented in a cheesy way).
5.5/10
