Rollicking good fun!

Rating: 10/10 (8 August 2014)

Color me tickled - two of the most talented actors out there - Morgan Freeman and Scarlett Johansson in one movie, and Sci-Fi to boot!
After reading all the "goofs" and other demerits people love to post here, my response was a resounding, "So who cares?"
A movie is supposed to be a little bit of escapist heaven. A few hours off from life. A break in the continuous hammering from reality which most of us endure daily, hourly, minute by minute.
Lucy is an excellent escape. The end, almost spiritual, along with some of the wonderful pearls of wisdom that drop from Lucy's lips throughout this truly entertaining film alone were worth the ticket price.
And as far as the "myth" that we only use 10% of our brain being a fallacy, I personally have met many, many people around the globe who made me wonder if they were even using 3% of theirs. So, true or not, the "myth" does make for a rollicking good time, supported by a truly entertainment value provided by Johannson, Freeman and a cast of unknowns (well, at least to me before this!) who all did their best to make a marvelous bit of celluloid.
Go see it. And enjoy some popcorn, too. Lucy is prime popcorn-munching fare.
