Insane!

Rating: 10/10 (8 September 2015)

Luc Besson's 'Lucy' is irresistible fun! An Insane Action film, that rides high on innovation & execution.
'Lucy' Synopsis: A woman, accidentally caught in a dark deal, turns the tables on her captors and transforms into a merciless warrior evolved beyond human logic.
'Lucy' is about a women who gains psychokinetic abilities when a nootropic drug is absorbed into her bloodstream & how her powers appear to be of a god. Its destruction, mayhem everywhere & yet its thoroughly engaging. The protagonist's unexplainable journey with herself, comes with a lot of action/gore, but its all such fun!
Besson's Screenplay is top-notch, scoring high on rush & pace. His Direction, on the other-hand, is extremely stylish. Thierry Arbogast's Cinematography is engrossing. Julien Rey's Editing is razor-crisp, as the film culminates within 88-minutes! Éric Serra's Score is good. Graphics are outstanding. Action-Sequences are expertly choreographed.
Performance-Wise: Scarlett Johansson nails the part. As Lucy, Johansson delivers a striking, affecting performance, that certainly ranks amongst her best works to date. Morgan Freeman is efficient, as always. Choi Min-sik is wicked to the core. Amr Waked is adequate.
On the whole, 'Lucy' is one winner! Strongly Recommended!
