Lucy 2014 Review

Realizing the power and danger of the CPH4, Lucy contacts Professor Samuel Norman (Morgan Freeman), a leading neurologist who has dedicated his career to theorizing about the potential of the human brain. She seeks his guidance, and together, their knowledge becomes the only hope for humanity to understand the drug before the rest of the syndicate’s supply falls into the wrong hands.

Instead of killing her, the massive dose of the drug begins to unlock her brain’s full potential. The film is driven by the popular (though scientifically disputed) premise that humans typically use only 10% of their brain capacity. As Lucy accesses more of her cerebral capabilities—reaching 20%, 40%, 60%, and beyond—she gains extraordinary abilities: enhanced perception, control over electromagnetic fields, telepathy, telekinesis, and the ability to absorb information instantaneously. lucy 2014
