Like a joke. Not so funny, though.

Rating: 1/10 (12 October 2014)

This is truly the worst movie i have ever seen. Unlike many of the critics here, I was expecting this kind of a flic from Besson. After The Big Blue and Leon he did not really produce/write/direct anything but movies with weak plots and imitated special effects. (ex.The Fifth Element? What did it really talk about? Does anyone remember?)
I will not even bother to write about the philosophical approach that the movie is based on. I believe that any idea (no matter if it has a scientific basis or not) can be communicated with a fine structure and built-up. This movie does not have that at all. It does not deserve an intellectual analysis. (I mean, really? 3 years after Limitless, having the very exact idea, but not saying anything new? Not even handling it as good as Neil Burger did?)
Taking the philosophical dimension aside, was it fun to watch or OK for an action/superhero/whatever movie? Not at all. In terms of special effects, digitalized images and action scenes, Lucy is boring, underdeveloped, inconsistent and clearly a cheap imitation of the 2000s (and even 90s) action/sci-fi etc movies.
A waste of time and money.
