Could've been amazing

Rating: 6/10 (10 October 2014)

I actually like the premise of Lucy being hyper-aware/-sensitive, etc... but I feel it paints science in a fairly bad light, suggesting it relies not only extrinsically, but intrinsically on hypotheses for theories to be applicable. A hypotheses in itself has no application, unless it has predictive (not explanatory) power. I think the movie could've been much better for me if it weren't trying so hard and overtly. I didn't like the cut-scenes, score, etc very much. Way too much drama for me. Had nothing against the grit which is fairly good. Min-sik Choi has a good performance. I think Scarlett Johansson did too, for the most part.
