what happens when we use the full hundred percent of our brain capacity..

Rating: 7/10 (22 September 2014)

I have to start with.. This is my first written movie review, I watch a lot of movies, but that doesn't make me an expert on movies. I have my genre's, but as a reviewer I'll take this to natural grounds and give my honest opinion on it.
"Lucy" is worth seeing on the big screen. Lucy (Scarlett Johansson) is an student, studying in Korea as she meets the wrong guy. Before she knows it she is bound to a suitcase, which later on contains a large amount of powerful synthetic drugs, called CPH4. Without agreement, she has herself being a delivery girl for the Korean mafia, to take the drugs to Europe. The drugs is hidden in her stomach, which by some violence gets 'kicked' open, integrated into her system with devastating results..
This results leads to her being able to use the full hundred percent of her brain capacity and usage. With the humans starting off with just ten percent usage of their brain, Professor Norman (Morgan Freeman) explains in a lecture, held in the university, about what would happen when we would reach twenty percent or even forty. Eventually a student asks him what would happen if we were able to use the whole hundred percent.. Even the professor didn't know.. (Must say something if Morgan Free doesn't even know the answer!)
In the movie we see how Lucy involves by the percents, as she gets more 'gifts' every time she involves. It starts with not feeling any pain and controlling your own body to traveling through time and space, controlling others and even transform matter.
This movie started off great and throughout the movie it developed a good strong story as you can understand all the information that the movie tells to you about the capacity of the human brain. But I have to ask, didn't it go to far? Luc Besson has great movies on his name, like The Fifth Element or Taken. Which both have a good story and The Fifth Element has it's own unique science fiction world around it. 'Lucy' has as well it's own science fiction world around it, but trying to mix it with the action and elements, that seen familiar with Matrix, X- men, Transcendence, Inception and Limitless, it's a bit.. TO MUCH?
But I must say, it's a good movie and I really do recommend it to people even though a lot of people hate it with a lot of passion. I think they are wrong, but hey taste is different from person to person..
I know one thing.. I know what happens when we use the full hundred percent of our brain capacity.. Which I could simply spoil for you, but I wont, cause with that question, you'll enjoy watching the movie. Take it with a bit of salt and you will be fine!
