Whenever we think about superpowers and characters doing impossible crazy things, the two largest comic book factories come to mind. Marvel y DC They attract all the attention in this sense, but in 2014 it was Scarlett Johansson who stole the spotlight by giving life to a devastating heroine.
Lucy is the name, not only of the protagonist, but of the film itself that Luc Besson directed and wrote, but which also includes the always fabulous Morgan Freeman among its cast. With a budget of 40 million dollars, the film grossed more than 460 million dollars worldwide thanks to its bet on action and science fiction.
The plot places us in the present day and in the perspective of a young Lucy who is tricked in Taiwan by her partner into delivering a new type of experimental drug in western territory. CPH4 is the name given to a substance that is forcibly introduced into the girl’s abdomen, but with the nuance that she carries a kilo of it in her body.
Such an amount explodes inside him when one of the thugs hits him to prevent him from escaping, causing his brain’s capabilities to expand without limits. From this point we begin to witness a race against time in which Lucy tries to understand what is happening to her, while she mercilessly destroys the mafia that has caused her to have powers beyond any understanding.
