A good movie that had the possibility of being so much better.

Rating: 6/10 (19 January 2015)

"If it really is CPH4 in that kind of quantity I'm surprised you're still alive." Lucy (Johansson) is forced by her boyfriend to help with a business deal. When the deal goes south Lucy is forced into a position that she can't escape from. She wakes up with a bag of a new kind of drug inside her with instructions to deliver them within 24 hours. When she is attacked the drugs enter her drug stream with surprising effects. No with the help of Professor Norman (Freeman) she must escape the men who want the drugs back and figure out how to put her new found powers to the best use. First off I will say that this is a good movie but at the same time it is pretty disappointing. I feel like they could have done so much more with this but fell short a few times. This was much better then Transcendence but there was still something lacking to make it totally gripping and exciting. It is very much worth seeing though but temper your expectations. Overall, a good movie that had the possibility of being so much better. I give it a B-.
