Hollywood Writers Use 10% Of Their Brains Or Less

Rating: 2/10 (18 February 2015)

I was really looking forward to the film Lucy coming out on Redbox yesterday, so I grabbed it right away.
Big mistake. What a disappointment. A decidedly un-sexy and unlikable Scarlett Johansson, drones her way through the film with the emotional dynamics of Keanu Reeves on Valium, while monotoning dialogue which is a combination of scientific psycho-babble, mixed with a burned out hippie's acid trip.
Add an necessary and pointless car chase, a liberal helping of effects ripped off from 2001 A Space Odyssey, and a huge firefight which made no sense, based on her character's abilities, and you end up with this pathetic waste of time.
Looking for something to see this weekend? Skip this one and try something else.
I wonder if Redbox will give me my money back?
