When a director only use 10% of its potential ...

Rating: 4/10 (25 July 2014)

From the start, the concept around which the story of the movie goes is a wacky myth from the 19th century. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_percent_of_brain_myth
I had the impression of watching the childish fantasy of a guy who really wants to believe that the brain can contain an infinite potential, and justifies his theory in the film by making allusions to Darwin to get credibility. I must say, the story is ridiculous. The scenes keep coming without logic, and all we see are ideas without content that lack strong justifications.
How boring that was.
At least the actors do their work without ever excelling. The special effects are quite successful, except in a few places where we feel far from the Planet of the Apes ... It is quite a chance for us that the movie does not last longer than its short 1 hour and 25 minutes. This is a sometime satisfactory visual trip, with some interesting reflections about our human origins, but in general the film is just bad.
Luc Besson has failed the last movies he did, and this one is one of his worst. Maybe that's him who only use 10% of its ... potential.
I recommend watching something else.
