Imagine having outstanding intelligence that means that you can consistently outsmart your peers and triumph in every aspect of your life. You can make money on the markets easily, solve challenging relationship problems, excel easily in your chosen field. All of this happens to Eddie Morra (Bradley Cooper) in the Neil Burger directed Limitless when Eddie’s ex-brother-in-law Vernon (Johnny Whitworth) who claims to be working for a pharmaceutical company gives him a clear pill NZT. The realms of his mind open up and he can make staggering headway with the novel he’s been writing. He cleans and tidies his filthy flat. He sweet-talks and seduces his landlord’s wife who starts out verbally lambasting him.
A problem arises when he finds Vernon dead in his flat. Eddie manages to track down a huge stash of NZT to keep his intelligence going even if the supplier is no longer around. He wins back the interest of his ex-girlfriend Lindy (Abbie Cornish) and wows the financial whizzkids so much that elite businessman Carl Van Hoon (Robert DeNiro) wants his advice. But someone is following Eddie.
Bradley Cooper is an unusual lead for this film after being in The Hangover but he’s very watchable. The plot’s gripping, fast-paced and sometimes a little stomach-churning. You’re not quite sure how it’s all going to end but it keeps you fascinated for every part of Eddie’s journey.
