The Verdict
Lucy is a high-concept sci-fi action film with a powerful female lead, but a strong woman protagonist is not woke by itself. There's no identity-swapping, no LGBTQ+ content, no preachy ideology — just a pulpy 'we use 10% of our brains' premise. It scores near zero across nearly every axis.
What the AI Flagged
Each axis scored 0–100, with the receipts. The headline score weights the worst offense, so a single egregious element isn't diluted by the rest.
Identity Swaps
0Original story with original characters; no established character is swapped.
Girlboss & Male Demotion
25Lucy becomes an all-powerful female lead, but the film doesn't frame men as the problem or mock them as a message.
- Lucy's powers vastly exceed everyone around her
- Professor Norman (male) is a respected ally, not a foil
LGBTQ+ / Trans / Non-Binary Content
0No LGBTQ+, trans, or non-binary content present.
DEI Casting
10Cast reflects an international Paris/Taipei setting plausibly; no checkbox casting against lore.
- Korean crime syndicate antagonists fit the setting
Preachiness
15Philosophical musings on human potential and evolution, but no identity-politics sermonizing.
- Voiceover lectures about brain capacity and the meaning of life
Anti-Masculinity / Anti-West
5No framing of masculinity, whiteness, or the West as villainous.
Source Betrayal
0Original screenplay with no source material to betray.
