Movie Lucy

From Luc Besson, the director of La Femme Nikita and The Professional, and starring Scarlett Johansson and Academy Award winner Morgan Freeman, comes an action-thriller about a woman accidentally caught in a dark deal who turns the tables on her captors.

Altered by a dangerous new drug allowing her to use 100% of her brain capacity, Lucy transforms into a merciless warrior evolved beyond human logic.

Lucy is set in a world that is run by the mob, street gangs, drug addicts, and corrupt cops. Lucy (Scarlett Johansson), a woman living in Taipei, Taiwan, is forced to work as a drug mule for the mob.

The drug implanted in her body inadvertently leaks into her system, changing her into a superhuman, due to accessing much more than the normal 10% of her brain capacity. She can absorb knowledge instantaneously, is able to move objects with her mind, and cannot feel pain and other discomforts.
