Scarlett Johansson drives a car for the first time in this clip from 'Lucy'. Gotta admit -- pretty good, considering how many car chases we see.

Comes off sort of dumb and kind of captivating while flirting with being compelling -- all at the same time. Reminds me of more pure stuff we used to see in the 60s and 70s, like Frankenheimer and Friedkin, who would take chances and not mind if there were rough edges because it came along with the energy, impact. Movies back then were more raw but had more power. 'Lucy' feels like that.

Should be fun.
