Lucy

After two decades of dissapointment it seem that Luc Besson has regained his mojo. Scatlett Johannsen has now appeared in three of my top films this year. Captain America Winter soldier, Under the skin and now Lucy.

I know the film has caught some flak for the whole "we only use 10% of our brains" thing, but it becomes apparant real quick that both this and the drug the imbues Scarletts character with superhuman powers is there mainly as a plot device to quickly explain whats going on so Besson can keep the film cracking along at a fair old pace. Min-sik choi from oldboy makes a great villain and the film manages to deliver action while still trying to provike thought in its audience.

Highly reccomended.
