Lucy. Lucy starts her day in Taiwan with a bit of bad luck. A "friend" wants her to enter a hotel to deliver a briefcase. The briefcase is filled with a new powerful drug. The individual she ends up delivering to is a powerful drug lord. He decides that instead of immediately killing her upon delivery, he'll also use her as a drug mule. A bag of the drug is put into her body. The bag springs a leak and she overdoses. Well, instead of dying from the overdose, the drug stimulates her brain to a much higher level.
I had problems with this movie. I hated all the sidebars that indicates how Luc Besson views life. For example, going back in time to view the first humans. Or those moments when Lucy is interacting with her "friend" and we get inserts of an animal hunting for food in Africa. Obviously, Lucy is the hunted. Was this just a way to add 5 minutes to the movie so that you could get to 90 minutes?
