Lucy (Scarlett Johansson) is accidentally swept up in a drug mule operation she is accidentally exposed to massive amounts of C.P.H.-4, which makes her capable of using 100% of her brain capacity. Professor Norman (Morgan Freeman) theorizes that this is possible and becomes her mentor and recipient. In the end, you may ask, “Of what?”
Naturally, we know that at one time the 10% brain use theory sounded reasonable, and we have moved on from there decades ago. But Morgan Freeman can make anything sound real.
We get lots of action; there are shoot-em-ups, fast cars, lots of blood, and a cute girl to occupy your time. Oh, and a good dose of CGI mixed with obscure images. Lots of loud music, but it does not overwhelm the dialogue.
