Return of the 10% of the brain myth

Rating: 7/10 (3 February 2019)

What's interesting, Luc Besson thought the myth was fascinating enough and hasn't been used sufficiently in other medias to make a new movie about it when it's been proven wrong already.

What this movie does well, it's starts a conversation about it for everyone who hasn't heard (enough) about it yet.

My first impression was that 'Lucy' is going to be a really bad movie, just existing so that Scarlett gets to be a Superhero as well, since in the Marvel movies she has no superpowers. But 'Lucy' is actually way more than that.

Especially the ending was interesting and even if the 10% statement is wrong, the movie could even work if they didn't involve the percentages. In it's state, it is a well portrayed adventure we get taken on and makes you question some aspects of life and your own potential and it's always great when a movie achieves something like this.

At the moment I feel torn about 'Lucy'. My thoughts went all across the board in the ratings, but in the end it is thought-provoking enough for a 7/10 and I would recommend it.
