Good start but predictable ending

Rating: 6/10 (29 July 2014)

Lucy is equivalent to lawnmower man for females. This movie starts out well with Scarlett Johannson showing her chops again as a female superhero. Most of the plot defies explanation and most of the rest of the cast are just there for window dressing. This movie has some interesting visuals, especially in the beginning and throughout most of the movie. Then the mayhem starts and guns and blood start flying and any sense of plot just goes by the wayside. In the end we get what we expect and leave scratching our heads and laughing about the hour we wasted watching this movie. With a little more imagination and writing ability this might have been an interesting and visually stunning movie.
