Not a very good movie. Too bad it had a good premise.

Rating: 4/10 (4 October 2014)

I am not sure why some people thought this was a terrific movie. Other than the premise, I cannot see anything good.
The idea that we do not use all of our intelligence is a very good plot device. Of course. Who would not like the idea of being able to think more.
However, the director (mostly an action film director and movies that I like) should never have been given this movie to direct. Lets take a person has tripled their brain capacity, and put them in high heels and have a car chase in downtown Paris. Really?
Morgan Freeman's performance was wasted. His character never really helps at all and just stands around dumbfounded.
I think there must have been 10 writers each writing a different section of the movie. That is the only way you can explain the grossly inconsistencies in the time-line of Lucy's evolution. In one scene, she can control TV's, phones, computers, and lights in Paris from Asia. Then she is on a plane where the is typing on two laptops with one hand each. Why does she even need laptops at this point and couldn't she just interface directly?
Anyway, sorry for the rant, but this movie is even worse than Transcendence.
