Could we dump the pseudo-science?

Rating: 5/10 (5 January 2015)

It was an OK film. I was rather bored by the explanations of what different use of brain capacity looks like and could have done without the section of wildlife videos. I liked the premise and how the story wove. It had some slick moments and some good effects, When it focused on the main character it got better. I liked the ending even thought it was slightly Matrix-ish.
Scarlett Johansson did a good job and the more the part developed, the more I liked her. However, I din;t know what Morgan freeman was doing in that film (not a lot) because he had a rather nothing part and had no chance to show his acting skill. He seemed to have fallen into Stooge Scientist With Famous Face character.
Don't go out of your way to watch it but if you can get past the animal planet excerpts then it's not too terrible.
