"Well, we've never done this before. But seeing as it's special circumstances and all, he says I can knock a hundred dollars off that Trucoat."
Blackly funny, there's so much to love about this movie, one that cemented the Coens as cinematic geniuses; this film is hilarious, bleak, and understatedly adventurous.

If you can move past the obvious biological flaws to the movie's premise, Lucy is a fun ride, not to be taken seriously, but entertaining all the same with some interesting concepts to discuss.
"Best Fuckin' Friends Forever, man!"
Everyone on the set was high, and the writers are famously stoners (Seth Rogan and Evan Goldberg), but you don't have to light up to enjoy this one — though it never hurts; hilarious quotable.
