12 Most Overlooked Science Fiction Films Of The 2010s

After she involuntarily ingests a cognitive enhancer drug, a woman’s mental abilities expand beyond human capacity in this kinetic story about potential and knowledge.

When Lucy (Scarlett Johansson) unwittingly becomes a drug mule, her world turns upside down. As her brain capacity and personality start transforming after the narcotic seeps into her system, she seeks revenge against the criminals who drugged her.

An energetic, colorful cinematic creation that goes into overdrive with every action sequence, Lucy boasts artful effects and a subtle-yet-eccentric performance by Johansson. The electric finale is a sight to behold and will leave you breathless.

The film can be interpreted in a number of ways - a metaphor for untapped human potential, a warning not to waste the life that we have been given, a warning for earthlings to take better care of our planet, an emphasis on the strength of female intuition.

Like all noteworthy science fiction films, Lucy leaves us thinking and pondering its questions for a considerable time afterwards.
