The drug of choice for failed writer Eddie Morra (Bradley Cooper) is a little clear looking raindrop of a gem called NZT. It’s experimental, definitely not
FDA-approved (despite what his ne’er-do-well ex-brother-in-law Vernon (Johnny
Whitworth) tells him), but man, does it come with presents galore. The drug’s
number one problem? It tends to make you gimpy. Or dead. Depending on your lot
in life, one of those side affects may be unfavorable. Until then, though,
you’re flying high, and as Vernon promises, you’ll be accessing that 80% of your
brain that you never have before. You’ll be remembering things you didn’t even
remember you could, you know http://www.cheapsportsnfljerseys.com/ , remember, see your enemies make their move before they realize they’re about to
make it, and decipher Wall Street shenanigans with ease. Unless you stop taking
NZT. That’s when the bad stuff kicks in. But hey, as long as you don’t stop
taking it, what’s to worry about? Am I right?
Of course, there’s plenty for our man Eddie to worry about. After ditching his writing gig for the much more lucrative world of finance, Eddie’s newfound
(and instant) fame in the money game brings him to the attention of a couple of
unsavory types. Corporate raider Carl Van Loon (Robert De Niro) and a
heavily-accented loan shark thug (Andrew Howard) both want a piece of Eddie, for
essentially the same reason – make more money for them. Plus, his new ability to
pick up foreign languages (and foreign chicks) has turned off his long-time
girlfriend Lindy (Abbie Cornish), who he lost, won back, and loses again. Add to
that an impending murder charge that he may or may not have committed and a
creepy looking middle age guy stalking his every turn Wholesale NFL Jerseys China , and Eddie’s fortunes are suddenly not looking so hot. Maybe NZT isn’t all it’s cracked up to be after all?
Directed by Neil Burger, the man responsible for the excellent and underappreciated “The Illusionist”, “Limitless” is one heck of a breezy hop and
a scotch down the rabbit hole. The film’s premise allows Burger to use a variety
of camera tricks to make his point. When Eddie is on NZT, he literally steps out
of his own body, and time and space become a blur. The film is surprisingly CG
heavy, since in order to achieve the cinematic effect of Eddie on NZT, Burger
uses everything from neverending camera zooms to some nifty scenes of Eddie
working a room from end to end in one faux continuous shot. Burger has never
really directed a pure action movie (though there are plenty of action in
“Limitless”, including a pretty impressive fight in a subway station), but I
would love to see him dive head-first into the genre sometime in the future.
There are some intense, well-staged fights to be found here.
Cooper is ideal for the role, and his transformation from loser to winner goes beyond an expensive haircut and new threads. Eddie’s change is not just
cosmetic, it’s more in the personality Wholesale Jerseys China , the attitude that Eddie (by way of Bradley Cooper) beam off him like great big headlights. Robert De Niro is, well, Robert De Niro. I never
really bought his corporate raider, but he’s good for a chuckle or two,
especially whenever he channels his back alley knuckle breaker in a three-piece
suit, which he does oh so brilliantly. Abbie Cornish has the thankless role of
Eddie’s girlfriend, which really doesn’t amount to much, though the contrast of
a mousy Cornish in “Limitless” and her upcoming, machine-gun packing role in
Zack Snyder’s “Sucker Punch” kept me plenty occupied. Andrew Howard brings the
viciousness as the thug Gennady, and is delightfully evil throughout. Possibly
the film’s best scene involves Gennady late in the movie that had members of the
screening audience in equal measures laughing and cringing.
“Limitless” is based on the novel by Alan Glynn called “The Dark Fields”, which, I hear Wholesale NFL Jerseys , was much more bleak. The movie version, adapted by longtime Hollywood screenwriter Leslie Dixon (the gal has been around since
1987’s “Outrageous Fortune”), is a breezy and entertaining movie that
effortlessly sprints by in a blur of impressive visuals, an excellent
soundtrack, and catchy, often amusing narration from hero Eddie Morra. There may
or may not be a message anywhere in “Limitless” (“Drugs are bad, kids.
Mmmkay?”), not that it matters. I had a blast swimming in the film’s often
chaotic visual razzle dazzle, and like good ol Eddie popping his first NZT
capsule, left feeling pretty good about myself.
