Do not think, just go and watch it ;)

Dude... This movie got the smokin hot Scarlett Johansson and Morgan Freeman in it. What else do you want in a movie? Seriously those two is more than enough reasons to watch this movie.

I randomly picked this movie and that is my initial thought when I see this 2 people in the movie. Well you guess what? I'm not disappointed. Truth be told my expectation for this movie is kinda low because I do not have any idea what this movie is all about since the title of this movie is very short, consist of only 4 letters; L-U-C-Y. And I never see a commercial or the trailer of this movie anywhere. Its like this movie is magically downloaded into my little brother's external HD or something.

But this movie is more to it than meets the eye as I progressed through the story. Of course the starting of the story is kinda dumb, a guy asked a girl he just meet to deliver a briefcase and she agreed to it as stated in the synopsis. But what happens later is what makes this movie great, thrilling and fun to watch. Lucy in this movie is ain't no bimbo with just pretty face and nice racks, she is a deadly beauty with a brain(tons of it) and has achieved the unthinkable.

Another thing that make this movie interesting to watch is the bad guy of the movie, Mr. Jang. He is not your typical African-American gangsta or Chinese thugs you seen in most movies, he is a Korean gangster with a swagg. Its a rare element in western movies I've seen. This movie touched about many strong issues like narcotics, human trafficking, human evolution, Darwinism and society corruption. So this may definitely not suitable for kids.

In conclusion, this movie is fun, thrilling, mind blowing and enjoyable to watch. An action-thriller sci-fi movie that I would definitely suggest to my friends to watch.
