One of the worst movies ever made.

Rating: 1/10 (27 January 2015)

To this day I am still sorry I even paid to see this thing, and I am truly sad for the 2 hours of my life I'm never getting back. Also, when France has national treasures of arts, literature and so on, THIS is what we broadcast to the world?! I was ashamed of being the same nationality as the director.
I literally face palmed myself during the entire time and really really wanted to leave the theater about 20 minutes in.
First, I should say that I'm a big Science-Fiction fan. But really good sci-fi happens when the shift between the actual science and the fiction operates so seamlessly that you don't even realize you've gone there, and that's how you buy into the story. But here, Besson tries to force the spectator into the fiction while the science was never there to begin with!
It takes forever for the story to set in and for the movie to actually start, and it is boring. Then, the so-called science is a load of CRAP, then more ridiculous CRAP piles up on top of that, and you end up thinking that maybe you don't want to live on this planet anymore. To mention a couple of these things : the 10% brain usage or the synthesized bone growth pregnancy hormones that gives you superpowers (WHAAAAAT?!)
The worst part is, this entire story would have never happened if the main character played by Scarlett Johansson wasn't a complete irresponsible moron. Then yes, maybe that Lucy character, indeed only used 10% of her micro-brain. And afterwards, during interviews, Besson says that he really admires women and respects them... Then WHY in the HELL are you feminine characters absolute idiots?!
To sum up the story : a massively stupid character gets into an even more stupid situation, she ends up being kicked in the stomach and synthesized bone growth pregnancy hormones progressively turns her into a sort of "mind-Hulk" who wrecks an incredible amount of property, and makes things float and time stop, and gets a lot of people killed for no reason. She puts the entire knowledge of humanity into a USB drive (I want one of those!) and her brains overloads and explodes, turning into a black goo super computer that travels through time and space.
WOAH. Such Magic. Much Film.
