Fantastic Sci-Fi Pic...Smarter Than What Some Folks Think (Spoilers)

Rating: 10/10 (8 August 2014)

Forget about those reviewers poo-pooing the implausibilities and dialogue...this film is a lot more profound that some people realize. The first 2/3 of the movie is a fun, violent and trippy revenge action flick, with Lucy using her various superpowers to get back at the bad guys. Who needs a gun when you can send a guy flying away with the wave of your hand? This fulfills the fantasy of every average person who wanted to possess amazing superpowers, and I think it really does it in the most entertaining way possible. The latter half of the movie really gets down to addressing the metaphysical aspects of Lucy's journey. See the last third of the movie, and really try to "read between the lines" of what is going on on screen. Lucy's trip through the universe was scary and beautiful all at once...almost equaling the ending to "2001 A Space Odyessey". And the time traveling sequence was absolutely spectacular! May I suggest Luc Besson make an all-out time travel sci-fi movie as his next project? It would blow everyone away! Loved this movie!!
