Lucy: Watch Scarlett Johansson Kick Ass

There are few films we are more excited about this summer than Lucy, which looks absolutely insane to us. Scarlett Johansson plays a drug mule whose balloon leaks inside her body, and gets super powers in the process. She can use 100% of her brain, which means she can see cell phone signals and change the color of her hair using only the sheer force of will. Plus, Lucy comes from director Luc Besson, whose particular brand of crazy brought us such action movie classics as Leon: The ProfessionalThe Fifth Element and Subway.

Our sister site Ask Men (or would that be “brother site?”) has scored a really cool extended clip from Lucy in which Scarlett Johansson uses her newfound abilities to escape her captors, enjoy a nice meal and be a little unnecessarily rude to a cab driver. (Shooting someone in the kneecap qualifies as “unnecessarily rude,” doesn’t it?)

Lucy opens in theaters on July 25, 2014.
