Storyline:
An action-thriller about a writer who takes an experimental drug that allows him to use 100 percent of his mind. As one man evolves into the perfect version of himself, forces more corrupt than he can imagine mark him for assassination. Out-of-work writer Eddie Morra's (Cooper) rejection by girlfriend Lindy (Abbie Cornish) confirms his belief that he has zero future. That all vanishes the day an old friend introduces Eddie to MDT, a designer pharmaceutical that makes him laser focused and more confident than any man alive. Now on an MDT-fueled odyssey, everything Eddie's read, heard or seen is instantly organized and available to him. As the former nobody rises to the top of the financial world, he draws the attention of business mogul Carl Van Loon (De Niro), who sees this enhanced version of Eddie as the tool to make billions. But brutal side effects jeopardize his meteoric ascent. With a dwindling stash and hit men who will eliminate him to get the MDT...Review:
After watching two really crappy movies I must say I really enjoyed this one. I haven't seen a thriller this good in quite a long time. The first thing about "Limitless" you must like is the original story. Imagine that you could take a pill and suddenly start using all of your brain. Becoming smarter and achieving everything you ever wanted from life. Of course,as any story, there are some loose ends, but by the end of the movie it all makes sense. Suspense, good performance by all the actors, camera tricks and visual effects makes this movie one you must see.Rating: 7,5/10 Buy on Amazon: Limitless
(DVD), Limitless: A Novel

ReplyDeletesame here if i was the smartest ass in the world i would figure out the formula for the pill a first, and would let some rusians kick the hell out of me :)
all in all promissing idea but, developed bad, like benjamin button - waist of two hours of my life
This movie interacts with those whose minds are already in that land, and gives some idea of what the dreamworld mind of a genius is for those who are sheeple.
