After Lucy evolved for the first time, there was no tension in the movie, because the opposition was just a bunch of ants to her, and it was not threatening, depending on what the director could pull out (the result was a USB in the end!) . The greatest tension after the middle period should come from the pull of Lucy's skyrocketing IQ and residual humanity, but the director basically gave up, and almost all his energy was placed on using special effects and Discovery images to decorate a so-called "philosophical" concept that was forced to instill.

"Super Body" is indescribably good. It makes me understand that when a person is no longer controlled by desire, fear, vanity, shame, guilt, self-blame, and even happiness, sweetness, and enthusiasm, he no longer clings to his own difference. Because of the particularity of others, he no longer worry about the value of his own existence, he will feel that the world is one, human beings and all living things are endless, he will calmly face the huge time, and enjoy every moment that the creator gives to the world The beauty.

Professor Norman: For primitive beings like us, life seems to have only one single purpose: gaining time. And it is going through time that seems to be also the only real purpose of each of the cells in our bodies. To achieve that aim, the mass of the cells that make up earthworms and human beings has only two solutions. Be immortal, or to reproduce. If its habitat is not sufficiently favorable or nurturing, the cell will choose immortality. In other words, self-sufficiency and self-management. On the other hand, if the habitat is favorable, they will choose to reproduce. That way, when they die, they hand down essential information and knowledge to the next cell. Which hands it down to the next cell and so on. Thus knowledge and learning are handed down through time.
