looks like "Limitless".

yet you have the full version?

"When the drugs start to leak inside her, it triggers a reaction, causing her to slowly learn how to use the full capacity of her brain, making her seemingly unstoppable."

**** my sides. crylaugh

Agreed, ****ing ridiculous

full-retard excellence.

once the "we only use 10% of our brains" fallacy was uttered in the trailer i rolled my eyes. enough of this stupid pseudo-science please.

I'd like to implant something in Scarlet...

LOL. This is the second movie Morgan Freeman is in this year that involves transhuman potential.

I am looking forward to this, and I'm pretty sure the scientific accuracy isn't meant to be taken seriously. Looks like a cross between Chronicle and Limitless. Seems fun and Besson always entertains.

Looks awesome. ScarJo is legit

That's why it's called science fiction. The force and magic don't actually exist either.

magic is real, my son.


but yeah, the force is a crock of shit.

She seems like Alice from the RE movies without the blandness and blatant nepotism.

Like the small ones you get at parties, with the tooth picks in them?

Man, I can fit at least four of them in my mouth.

So, you started off owning Marwash, and then owned yourself?

Even my sense of humour turns against me every now & then.

Bean juice anyone?

When will Hollywood stop using the 10% myth? Can't say I'm not disappointed in the trailer or that ScarJo is still finding work.

neither the force nor magic are disprovable. they are based on mysticism and not recycled junk science tailored for idiots.

the 10% brain fallacy is.

it's an overused, patently false, and f***ing stupid plot point.

I think it looks cool. When she dropped those dudes was pretty cool.

Looking at the previews where would you place her power wise?

http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=bN7ksFEVO9U

And who is the weakest being that can stop her in your opinion. This is going by the previews...so base it off of that until we see the movie.

Its over 9000.

At the very least she will be Phoenix Jean level, if not Akira level. If the time rewind was objective and not in her head, she is easily Q level.

if she is nude than her power level will be off the charts

Trailers are deceiving. She could be a glass cannon. I'll wait til the movie.

Carver gets exited a lot and has no were to release that excitement cept on KMC

Im afraid so mate!

Just saw this. I'd say 7.5/10. Besson perfects his craft of delivering a rather silly plot, but making it enjoyable due to great direction, dialogue, themes, and pacing. Excellent visuals (especially the 2001 Stargate-esque "99%" sequence) add to the entertainment. The film is definitely flawed, but due to it's quick pace, disbelief was able to be comfortably suspended.

Amongst the films flaws (besides the obvious 10% myth)
-Due to the quick pace, we don't get much in terms of character besides from Lucy. I don't even remember Morgan Freeman's character name. Besides Lucy, everybody was a stock character.
- after seeing Lucy collapse a hall-full of people with a handwave, the gangster villains, who were the main antagonists of the entire film, didn't seem to be that much of a credible threat. TBF though, I did like the circumstances in which they posed a danger to her at the end. I thought it was well-scripted

Overall, I enjoyed the film to the point that these flaws didn't bother me. I also really love how they ended the film. Lucy transcends into incorporeal omnipresence and gives Freeman a hard drive with all of her knowledge, so it can be shared with the world to advance humanity". Much better than the other transhuman Freeman flick released this year, that ended pretty much with an apocalypse.

I consider this similar to Pacific Rim (PR is definitely the better written and directed film), in which it is a film you will have to shut your brain off to enjoy. But it is an entertaining 90 minute thrill ride that embraces it's extravagance and makes it a fun escapist experience to have as long as you're in the mood to shut off your serious-meter and enjoy it.

7.5/10

looks like this will be a success

I hear Lucy murders a Taiwanese man for the crime of not speaking English.

That's shown in the trailer you degenerate.

You haven't led me astray, yet, with one of your reviews.

Here's hoping you still got it. (I plan to see it tonight...maybe)

Actually she only wounds him. He is heard screaming my leg as they're driving away. He also may have been one of the gang members based on how he was dressed and they were outside a gang clubhouse.

10% brain thing lost me. If it's that stupid in the previews it's going to drive me nuts in the actual film

just got back from seeing this..

decent film.. i understood what was being said..

its an updated version of Altered States with a touch of Transcendence ..

i'd give it 6/10

I liked the movie and they expanded on untouched areas of Limitless and Transcendence. I left the movie feeling good about it. Not to mention Scarlett is always nice to see.

Sadly I cannot find any info on a sequel.

This doesn't seem like a film that can have a sequel. Not only was her story concluded, but the story of humanity itself, when she gave Freeman the drive with her infinite knowledge on it, reached a transhumanist conclusion.

It pisses me off that in Hollywood the mindset is you have to take drugs to reach pinnacle human condition. This is the second or third movie like this, why are they preaching this meathod.

This movie wasn't made by Hollywood. It was made by an European production company. Only other film I recall like this was Limitless, which I also enjoyed. I'm pretty sure after this film the trope will be dead though, since it will just be compared to Lucy and Limitless.

Well I guess that makes me feel a little better that Hollywood didn't actually produce it.

Thanks for the spoiler tag.. last time I use this forum for any films I haven't seen

Please forgive me, Frodo

Quit posting spoilers, Lestov. If you're gonna talk about the ending, then use spoiler tags. That goes for everyone.

Calm your titties, Imp. It was a mistake.

Shut up ****er, you're scum.

Don't make me backhand you in the mouth. You already didn't put enough pastrami on my sandwich. You don't want to test me.

You'd snap your skinny wrist on impact Femstov.

See what you made me do, Neme? Apologize for making me hit you.

Picture didn't work.

Did your frail fingers not hit the keys right? Need a little help typing little guy?

Actually the picture would have humiliated you, so I decided to show mercy at the last minute. You don't need to fellate me for gratitude. A handjob will serve just fine.

These hands destroy cities and topple governments, I could no more grasp your meager boyhood than I could a the antennae of an ant.

You will not be the first prostitute I've had to throw out into 8 separate dumpsters. Your hand destroy cities, but mine destroy heavens.

Just saw the movie. Great little flick, hokey theories aside. At least now we know where Marvel's Sentry gets his power of a million exploding suns from.

Great actors !! Recommended??

The only thing I liked about this movie was Scarlet...

This was a pretty terrible flick start to finish.

Gotta disagree with you there Rob. Illogical, sure, but unentertaining? Nah.

Scarlet is nice to look at, but that doesn't make a good movie.. The story and action though, overall bore-fest.
