Saw the movie LUCY...loved it. Very similar to my character Solamaine in some ways. Some hilarious moments in an otherwise fast paced, serious minded examination of a freak accident causing a human to become super-human (gee, where have we heard that story concept before...all kinds of comic books, including The Flash). The movie was very short, 90 minutes, featured a very perplexed and exhausted looking Morgan Freeman as a scientist and only one of 3 people Lucy trusts, the other a female roommate and a French detective who, when seeing her god-like powers, is incredulous as to how he could be of any help to her. While the screenplay had some serious gaps, edited down for brevity, lack of character development, the story still had a good message, and was your typical Luc Besson journey of fun while questioning the meaning of life. He did this notably in Fifth Element and in Lockdown. The ending was both spectacular and heartfelt. As far as my feelings about it being so similar to Solamaine, well I ordered the blu-ray already, so Im not exactly pissed about it.
