Mindless is only proper word for this cerebral capacity nonsense romp

Rating: 2/10 (20 February 2017)

Doing movie about cerebral capacity usage without any logic, with heavy pseudo science - that's what Luc Besson (writer and director) did here. I can think only that he was high during whole time when made it. Too bad, because he really has gift for film making. Only good thing about this was pace, that's why I gave 2 stars. Actors: Morgan Freeman in another typical role of "scientist", throwing another pile of crap to audiences - like that cell will choose immortality in environment without life support :-). Indeed, movie would be much better without that whole pseudo science crap - but it tried to be serious - what is biggest flaw. Scarlett Johansson: probably best cast for this. Cool bitch most of time. Possible that some did not accept role after reading script. Overdone violence, without any sense in most cases: probably worst moment was killing of taxi driver just because he did not speak English. But that driving during Paris, causing death of minimum 20 people was also plain mindless. Couple words about superpowers: how can increasing cerebral capacity bring telekinetic, time travel and other things ? Author seriously lacks some elementary knowledge. But he likes blood on screen. No thanx, no Luc. We don't need such person, who kills brainlessly, lacks any empathy totally to be someone who shows us the new path. You are just lost, and sequel (what I just saw that is announced) can be only even bigger pile of nonsense.
