If you hear about it in the morning, you can die in the evening

Because I was on a business trip in Shanghai, I took the time to watch a movie in Shanghai Studios, and wanted to experience the new IMAX effect, so I went to watch "Lucy" when it happened to be playing. Although my friends had said that it was not good-looking and not worth watching, and finally turned into a USB flash drive, it was very funny, but probably because of this psychological expectation, when I went to see it, I felt it was okay. In short, this is not a movie that is afraid of spoilers, and even I think it will feel better after spoilers, because it may be easier to understand.

Let me try the plot again. The writing is very detailed, it may affect the viewing experience, so if you haven't watched it yet, don't watch it.

First of all, she is an ordinary girl, a foreigner is in Taipei, clubbing, and nightclubs, but she still has her head. She was unlucky and found a scumbag to be her boyfriend. Her boyfriend used her to hand in a box. She refused until she was forcibly handcuffed and forced to deliver the goods. The middle part of the plot is skipped. In short, she was forced to put a new type of drug into her abdomen and waited to fly to Europe for delivery. In this episode, the little girl acted very real, a kind of helplessness and fright of ordinary people.

Here is an interlude of Professor Freeman's speech in Paris. To be honest, this paragraph is really useless except for the setting. The director has never participated in academic activities, right? When the professor gives a presentation, will the audience interrupt the professor's speech at will? And those problems are also very mentally handicapped, obviously the professor will talk about it. In short, there are two important settings in this lecture: First, the full development of the brain's abilities, there will be superpowers beyond imagination; Second, there are two ways of existence in time for living things, one is immortality, that is, eternal existence. In an unsuitable environment, turn yourself into a self-sufficient system that will exist forever; the second is reproduction, where you will continue to copy yourself, evolve and learn in an appropriate environment, and will always exist as a species. Most people have noticed the former setting, and many people have overlooked the latter setting. In fact, the latter is also very important, and even more important.

Back to the main line, Lucy's bag of drugs in her stomach was accidentally kicked out during the transfer, and she evolved because of this. Then the superpower exploded, not only escaped the control of the drug dealer, but also went to the hospital to take out the drugs that had not melted in the stomach. At the time of the operation, she had no pain, but her brain power increased to 20%, and her childhood memory was fully restored. She used this time to call her mother who was far away in the West. I was really touched during this period. As a daughter and mother, it resonated deeply with me.

Then she went back to the boss of the drug dealer and learned about the other shippers. She needed more of this drug as evolutionary energy. Then, she went online to investigate, trying to figure out what happened to her change, so she discovered the professor's theory and realized that she was an example of teaching the theory. Then, she contacted the Paris police to catch the drug transporter, and at the same time went to Paris to see the professor.

On the plane, she began to disintegrate. Many people think that this is because of insufficient energy, which can indeed be understood. But please note that what she thinks of here is the professor's speech on immortality, that is to say, for her current super-body survival method, the earth is not a suitable environment, so her body must automatically transform into Self-sustaining The state, that is, the non-physical state. Of course, she slowed this state by supplementing medicines.

It's another action movie in Paris. Then she and the police took drugs to the professor's university. (The professor’s several scientists and colleagues are too dull and too soy. As someone who has been in contact with many scientists, I really feel that the image of the scientist in the movie is not real) Then she has to consume the remaining 3 kilograms of drugs Quickly complete the evolution, because she wants to know what will happen to 100% mental development. The professor asked if these medicines were enough, and she said that she had calculated it (it did, using 2 computers on the plane), basically enough. Almost, she did it last. The professor hoped that she would retain the knowledge she had learned with Ultrain. She hesitated a little, feeling that the advanced knowledge did not know what the results would bring, but in the end she promised to keep the knowledge with the computer technology that humans can use now—— This is the origin of the USB flash drive that has been complained by countless people. I think it's natural. This is what she promised. At this time, the professor thanked her for her self-sacrifice. I think the meaning here should be that if she doesn't overwhelm 100% all at once, at least she won't disappear so quickly.

Then the drug dealers outside continued to fight, while inside Lucy continued to evolve. The ability she acquired at first was teleportation in space, and then she learned to travel in time. So she traced back all the way along the time axis (this paragraph has a foreshadowing, when she discussed with the professor before, she said that the most basic measure of understanding the world is time, which is the most primitive, not a recognition made by human thinking. Knowledge frame) until the singularity of the Big Bang. (This passage is accompanied by music, I am so touched, it reminds me of one day in my elementary school, sitting in the corner of the classroom, looking at the people in a room, doing my own things noisily, at that time I thought of the earth, Thinking of the Milky Way, thinking of the universe, thinking of infinity, I feel that all around is not real, only that universe is real, and I no longer exist.) In the

end, she reached 100% mental development, Lucy disappeared, leaving a U plate. The police asked Where's Lucy? His mobile phone shows I'm everywhere. Someone complained that Lucy became the host and became Siri, but I think it is more like the captain of "Ghost in the Shell", becoming an information flow and entering the electronic world. Returning to the previous setting two, as an immortal life, she transformed into a state of self-existence, that is, an immaterial state.

The ending song was great, I sat there and listened to it, and calmed down my excitement by the way. If you sum up this film in one sentence, I think it is: "If you hear the Tao in the morning, you can die at night." After Lucy became a super body, she has been trying to solve the problem of "who am I, what am I going to be". She didn't go to the drug dealer for revenge, but wanted to know the whereabouts of other drugs and let her evolve. She went to the professor to find out what happened to her and what she should do. In the end, she returned to the beginning of time in her mind. In my understanding, she exhausted her way, and then disappeared.

The top few film reviews of this movie are well written, and I also saw these film reviews before I went to the cinema to see it. I think that if you have the ultimate care, you will have a sense of substitution, and this sense of substitution will become so real in IMAX's audio-visual effects, it is simply moving to tears, and I am indeed in the last period of time and space. She burst into tears as she traveled.
