Limitless

Limitless

Main Stars: Bradley Cooper, Abbie Cornish and Robert Deniro
Director: Neil Burger

What its about: Limitless is a drama of the change of a regular man into something completely different. This is done by a mysterious drug enabling someone to access all of ones abilities. Bradley Cooper plays a struggling writer who after taking this drug propels himself into the financial world where he uses his incredible intellect to rake in cash. This new world is though not without danger, Cooper finds conflict between this world and also this 'incredible' pill.

Whats good about it?This film is a hoot. Making the audience want this pill, which highlights a fault of the film where it could influence drug use but other wise as the viewer watches this film then get involved in the complex decisions Cooper has to make and see how his new world is shaped and how he changes as a person in this new world and with this drug. Robert Deniro helps bring stability to this film as a older and wise character. He helps show the extent Bradley has changed.

What I think:This film is highly entertaining and engaging making the viewer want to be in Coopers position. It builds interesting characters and is very fun to watch. What this film is really about i think is the growth of Cooper as a character and the changes he has to experience and the challenges they bring. It has a bit of and unexciting end because of the high tension nature of the rest of the film but is no less fulfilling.
