Limitless..

This latest movie Starring Bradley Cooper,Robert Deniro and Abbie Cornish is another example where the marketing of it dont do justice at all.The trailer do make you curious a bit,but leaves you with a feeling of not knowing what to expect out of it?.The gross of 70 million at the US Box office is not that bad,but it could have done much better with efficient marketing.Still regardless of how badly promoters failed,its one of the must watch film of the year 2011 and believe me, they have been only handfull of them.Its been a sorry year for the movies but this one was a refreshing change.

Eddie Morra(Bradley Cooper) is a wanna-be writer who is behind on a deadline for completing his book and its not only the book he is behind,its his whole life which seems to be crashing around him.His failed marriage which lasted for a day,rent that he cant afford to pay,advance on a book he took which he cant seem to complete,his girlfriend who is been just promoted at her job and seem to be going places,in short he cannot think of anything that he is doing right.

Enter his ex-brother in law,who he didnt see for years not since his highschool and he remembers him as a dealer back in the day.He see's eddie and can guess that he is not doing that well.So as they are having coffee,he introduces him to upcoming drug called NZT and describe it as a drug which will help him access more then 20 percent of the brain he is using.He takes that pill to seek for a shortcut and he is at that point of his life where there is not much worse it can get.

This is where the joy ride begins not only for Eddie Morra,but also for me while watching the film.He is suddenly transformed into a clear headed guy,nothing to loose and finishes his book in four days.And he doesnt stop there,he now knows multi languages,gets his girlfriend back,well versed in investment stocks even without a degree in finance and is moving up the corporate ladder. Now with his ability of being his own perfect version,as we all so desire,he is approached by the business giant in the financial world Carl Van Loon (DeNiro),who wants him on board as he is acquiring stakes in the energy sector.But as all good things come to an end,Eddie's shortcut gets him in trouble as he is having side effects to the drug and he is indulge into finding reasons for it,but what he finds it gets more twisted.

The pace of the movie is simply amazing.I like the scene where Eddie Morra(Bradley Cooper)have a fight scene at a subway,the song Walking by Ash Grunwald in the movie and Carl Van Loon(DeNiro) scene where he tells Eddie not to make him the competition,which was in a way telling him that I cannot beat you so its better I join you,Deniro is always a delight to watch.This movie will surely make your day.

I rate it 8.5..have fun with it..
