Limitless Review

Like a breath of fresh air, Limitless is a break to the horrible spring time for movies and is a prelude to the Summer blockbusters. It stars Bradley Cooper as Eddie Morra, a writer who suffers from writer's block. (don't we all?) He starts taking a pill that enables him to use his entire brain, and he starts good for a while. But then he starts zoning out and strange people start to stalk him. This is a clever thriller, that sometimes starts to get a little long. Other than that though, it's great. The best actor in the entire movie is probably Cooper, depicting the side affects of the drug perfectly, but is suffers from some poorly executed plot twists, and some boring sections. In the end, I would compare this film to the film RED, for good acting and funny parts, but also bad twists and severly long sections. This film deserves a B.
