I love everything I see from 'Lucy'. Here's another clip that works better than I expected.

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.

Clip from 'Lucy' -- moves at a clip, crunch edited but still makes perfect sense, a lot of fun. Can't wait.

High Gloss Eye Candy

'Lucy' will make a fun rental.

'Lucy' Poster

'Lucy' continues to look good. Of course, marketing for Luc Besson's movies is always sharp, but the trailer and now this sheet are exceptional.

New Franchise

Yeah, we'll see a 'Lucy 2', there can be little doubt.

Luc Likes His Women Tough

Besson has always made his female characters strong. 'La Femme Nikita' is the obvious example, set early in his career. I think this was something of a turning point for female characters. 'The Fifth Element' (his script) followed suit, as did 'Colombiana' (also written by).

Scarlett Johansson in 'Lucy' is certainly no exception -- Luc looks to be in form and Johansson is shaping up to be the next female action star, with perhaps more of an emotional intensity and psychological complexity than we've seen before. Looking forward.
