so i havent blogged in a while, especially about a movie..
Limitless..just bad..bad
I dont know if nothing entertains me or if i just have bad taste in movies. Its a dilemma i contemplate every time im stuck watching a stinker...just because im waiting for it to get better.
If i had to describe this movie in one word it would be-Garbage
So the movie is about a guy that takes a pill (from a drug dealer) that makes him use all of his brain instead of 10%. So he goes from being a hobo writer to a hobo wallstreeter on drugs.
He seriously looked like he crawled out of the sewers before he took this pill. Is this movie trying to tell me that he didnt know what a shower or a haircut was before using the other part of his brain? And on top of it he had a hot girlfriend when he looked like a dumpster diver. that is not believable. i scrunched my nose during the movie as if i could smell him.
Moving on... All of a sudden he gets really smart and starts making all this money...and of course he needs to keep replenishing his supply of pills. Besides the gang bangers he seems to be doing quite well. Until he mixes it with alcohol and forgets a full night (you aren't supposed to do that, oh and if you stop taking it you die.) turns out he killed a woman.
he finds a way to make it all work and continue living his life while successfully taking the drug behind everyone's back. Then we find out hes weaned himself off the drug but got to keep his super smart brain. the end.
heres my problems-
first of all name one drug that you can take from the street, with no side affects, you dont ever get caught (especially when you are one of the most powerful people) and biggest of all YOU CAN WEAN YOURSELF OFF AND STILL EXPERIENCE THE SIDE EFFECTS. i got an idea im going to go buy some ecstasy tonight..and if i take it right ill get to experience it forever..sans any bad side effects..awesome.
two how do you kill someone and just forget about it. they literally just rolled over that whole thing. completely. the movie ends and im like okay i guess we arent addressing the dead girl. may be that just happens all the time in new york.
Apparently according to the writers of limitless you can look like a hobo, become a millionaire, a senator, a drug addict, a murder, change the chemistry in your brain to make you smart without said drug and get a hot girlfriend without anyone wondering what the crap happened.
Let me tell you, I wondered.
