LUCY



(Scarlett Johansson)

M-Net Movies Showcase DStv Channel 108 will screen the science fiction thriller Lucy on December 10 at 20h00.

Directed in 2014 by Luc Besson, the film stars Scarlett Johansson, Morgan Freeman and Choi Min Sik. Rating: 16VS

A woman is used as a drug mule against her will and accidentally infused with the smuggled substance, which unleashes paranormal powers that allow her to obtain boundless knowledge. It makes her a target of an evil crime boss.

Scarlett Johannson has often been compared to Marilyn Monroe, but she will never be cast as a stereotypical “dumb blonde”; her intelligence shines through. In Lucy she stars as, perhaps, the brightest human who has ever lived.
