If you loved Lucy, the closest films we have are Krrish (2006), Godzilla (2014) and They Call Me Jeeg (2016). All three share Lucy's kinetic and cerebral feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

If Lucy hit the spot, these will too

An ordinary person weaponized by extraordinary abilities
The difference: Bollywood masala with songs — earnest where Lucy is icy

Human beings reduced to spectators while something larger moves
The difference: Slow, solemn and withholding — dread built by delay, not velocity

Kinetic where it counts, cerebral underneath
The difference: Sits closer to drama than Lucy does

Action built on momentum, twice over

One thread runs through both: futuristic

Two things both keep coming back to: time travel and superpowers

Sudden catastrophe drops on unprepared people and never lets up
The difference: Boots-on-the-ground grind — sweat and squad chatter, no big ideas

Besson's candy-colored future, every frame crammed with invention
The difference: Sprawling and sunny — an adventure rather than a tightening spiral

The same preoccupation in both: superpowers
The difference: The scrappier of the two with critics

Cerebral science fiction, and it commits to that

A woman's runaway power outgrows everyone trying to control her
The difference: Dour franchise obligation — the ideas stay buried in plot

Action with a pulse of momentum, in both cases
In the mood for more kinetic?
