Lucy only opened this weekend here so I went to see it, I'd heard stuff about the racism floating about tumblr, but I tend to try and avoid people talking about a film if I think I might go see it. So pretty much all I knew about this was that the plot was based on the crazy (and hugely debunked) theory that we only use ten per cent of our brain. I don't think I even say a trailer for it.

I have to say that I enjoyed it for its insanity. It is just pure nonsense, and pretension and it attempts to be intelligent and fails so spectacularly. I know it has huge problems with race and well, loads of things, but I still liked it. I could wish for a whole heap better, and I do wish for that, but for a bit of utterly mindless entertainment I thought Lucy did the job.

Somebody really needs to hit Luc Besson over the head with the fact that history is made up of a hell of a lot more than white people though.
