Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is the exact same release that every other vendor is selling. The only thing that makes it stand out is a much nicer slipcover, with a lenticular 3D faceplate. As much as I like slipcovers, I wouldn't pay even a buck more for an exclusive slip. Fortunately, BB usually has the price to beat the week of release anyway, so I didn't have to, and unlike some of their steelbooks and exclusive editions with added trinkets, I haven't seen them charge a premium just for including a different o-sleeve. As for the movie, that's more, if not completely subjective. IMO, Besson still hasn't returned to form. Leon, The Big Blue, The Fifth Element, this is not. But I enjoyed the ride and the message. And there's currently no better experience or home video investment than Blu-ray. Like most Universal releases, a separate dvd and UV/iTunes compatible dcopy voucher are included as well. I personally don't mind the unnecessary swag - even if the dcopy is a rather obvious manipulation to grow that market, and even though the dvd seems rather pointless for this type of film - but it would be nice if studios would at least stop mucking up their cover artwork with unsightly banner advertising and relegate mention of such superfluous inclusions to removable stickers or to the rear of the package itself. Just saying: unlike Ultraviolet/iTunes, discs are a collectible investment. I'd rather not see advertising or cheap marketing on the cover. The slip at least minimizes it to the standard blue banner at the top. But said banner still detracts from the overall aesthetic of the cover design.

Great movie unique story lots of turns and surprises

This movie kept me engaged in the story throughout. It was an exciting movie to watch.

The American Lucy is studying in Taiwan and is dating Richard that she met at a nightclub. When Richard has a briefcase to deliver to the mysterious Korean Mr. Jang, he tricks Lucy and cuffs her to the briefcase. Lucy has no other option but to meet Mr. Jang, who is a dangerous drug lord that kills Richard. Lucy discovers that the briefcase contains the synthetic drug CPH4 and she is forced to work to Mr. Jang as drug mule with three other men and transport the drug to Europe hidden in their abdomens. However one of her captors kicks her in the abdomen and releases the CPH4 in her body. Soon Lucy enhances her brain capacity and develops her physical and mental capabilities. She uses her abilities to kill the criminals and flees. However her power does not stop increasing and is destroying Lucy that needs to use more CPH4 to stabilize her body. She contacts Professor Norman, who is an authority in brain capacity, and the scientist becomes her hope to save her. But Mr. Jang wants to retrieve his drug and is hunting Lucy down.

Here's an interesting movie that's played fast & loose! Scarlett J. (how many actresses have that 1st name?) plays Lucy in a drug transaction gone horribly wrong. You can't quite get the Black Widow character out of the Lucy character as Lucy becomes something else (or is that someone else?). Can't ruin the storyline for you, but I can promise you non-stop action that erupts into a full-scale war with Lucy in the middle or is she waging the war? You got to see it to believe it! Interesting SF plot; good acting; and terrific sfx! You won't be sorry!

Lucy is a great, albeit short, movie. It gets pretty weird at the end but I think it does a pretty good job of walking people through what's happening so they don't get lost. This package is great because it includes a digital code, Blu-ray, and 4k disc. Lots of action on this movie to show off the higher quality visuals. Keep in mind the 4k disc will only play on 4k players! But that's why the other discs are included.

I didn't think the 1080 blu-ray could be topped, it is such a beautiful transfer. The 4k transfer of Lucy is crazy detailed and vivid. It may be the best looking UHD I have ever seen, so far. I had heard of this movie but wasn't interested in seeing it in the theater. I purchased the blu-ray just out of curiousity. Wow!, I was totally immersed in the story from beginning to end, what a concept.

One to add to your list. If you never come across this perspective, this would be a movie to see. the possibilities of the brain and human function are limitless. The possibilities are potrayed well, food for thought.

lucy is a good movie,although a little confusing in the beginning,it does pick up nicely.good storyline,although i did not care for the ending.it was entertaining and held my interest.

Original storyline although Limitless seemed to inspire some of it. Scarlett and Morgan are both terrific. GREAT special effects....

I saw it first at the theaters, but i had to watch it again with the wife (Netflix blueray). I'm glad that i did, for I understand the ending now. I can't believe i missed Morgan Freedman's explanation in the beginning. I ended up buying the movie... it is a keeper!

I expected more. The action was good and concept fresh. I am glad I made the purchase. This was clean enough for my 12 year old.

Really good si-fi movie, after the first 5 or 10 minutes the movie takes off, the action begins, and continues until the end.

Really enjoyed this movie. Lots of action from beginning to end but the ending left me scratching my head a little.

I would highly recommend this movie. It is a great film but had to watch it a couple times to catch everything.

One of the best movies ever. It really make you wonder about human capabilities

The premise and acting was good. The theory behind it was far fetched. A pill that can make people smarter is believable. "Pulling" the knowledge out of the air is not.

Pretty interesting idea... could have been planed out a little better but overall decent

Great movie! I loved the plot line, the acting was good...you cant go wrong with a morgan freeman. If you like science and action, this is the movie for u

The movie felt like it ended abruptly. The ending was building in intensity and then seemed to end like a punch-line to a joke. The credits were rolling before we could absorb why the movie ended the way it did. Beautiful National Geography parts witha mix of Matrix , and brain games ,interesting but also forgettable.
