Decent action, acting below stellar...about what I expected

Rating: 7/10 (4 September 2014)

Lucy was about what I expected. A decent action movie with played out roles by Morgan Freedom and Scarlett Johanseen. Probably the two most interested parts of the movie were 1. The action sequences, and 2. The question of, What is the meaning of life?
Unfortunately though, the characters in this movie seemed far from original and failed to really excite my interest enough to make me think or be somewhat impressed. Scarlett Johanseen's blah and robotic like acting throughout this movie, in my opinion, shows her lack of depth as an actor (these days) and poor writing of her character. I was disappointed by this, even though I overall enjoyed this movie.
I gave this movie a 7 instead of a 5 or 6 because of the well played Korean boss, cinematic display of Taiwan, and the somewhat interested displayed of drug transport in the body.
Overall, if you are bored and don't mind poor action and half decent action..go ahead, watch this and you will enjoy.
