After watching some trailers, I thought Lucy looked quite interesting. Not really a fan of Luc Besson, the subject matter seemed original enough. So, I convinced Anita to come along to watch the movie with me after we were done with furniture hunting.
It lived up to my expectations. And the guy behind the counter who sold us the tickets wasn't joking when he said that the movie was not suitable for children. He was spot on. The action were rather brutal. But the narrative was good. Illogical, but I was game for the ride.
After enjoying some trailers, there was an announcement for everyone to stand up for Negaraku. I read about this somewhere. Slowly Malaysia was turning into North Korea, but maybe the Menteri got their heads screwed on right and knew what they were doing. Personally I felt that this was a hollow gesture, but who am I to judge. I was here for a movie after a long weekend.
Would I recommend everybody to watch it? Well, I would definitely watch it again if it played on Astro, but I don't think that this movie would be everybody's cup of tea.
