Limitless
Re: Limitless
i really enjoyed this film, and for the first time in ages didnt check my watch!!
9/10 and i too would love 2 weeks worth if there were no side effects - i'd be a millionaire or at least remember were i left the car keys in the morning.
i normally find bradley rather hot but i can safely say the first 15 mins i didn't. there were 2 parts that werent really explained to me, but dont want to give out spoilers so will wait until all the viewings have finished and see what theories people have

Re: Limitless
I saw this tonight at Leeds/ Bradford Odeon, i was really disappointed, the trailer makes it look like a good interesting action film, and it wasn't. Felt like it had plenty of chances to end and just when you thought the end is coming, it just went on and on.

Re: Limitless
Saw this at a packed Cineworld in Glasgow. Enjoyable, original film. Bradley Cooper was excellent in the main role and Robert De Niro was back to his best.

Preference of cinemas:- 1. Glasgow Renfield Street Cineworld, 2. Glasgow Showcase, 3. Braehead Odeon, 4. Vue Fort, 5 Glasgow Springfield Quay, 5. any other cinema in Glasgow area including Hamilton
Also Falkirk, Dunfermline and Stirling but these are rarely used for free previews.

Re: Limitless
Just saw this at a packed out Whiteley's tonight.
Intelligent, well paced actioner, great cinematography and set in New York, my all time favourite city in movies. Good performances from Bradley Cooper and De Niro who can do intimidating in his sleep. Thought the premise was original: NZT, a pill that can make you clever, rich, sexy and powerful (with some unfortunate side effects). It's a Wall Street dream drug.
Spotted a spoof ad for NZT on the tube today.
I'm sure if NZT was available at Boots (or your friendly neighbourhood drug dealer), there be huge queues!
9/10

Re: Limitless
I watched this last night in Liverpool 1. I really enjoyed it, I thought the plot was quite original and the acting superb. The cinematography was fantastic and you really got a feel for his lost time.
Overall I would give it a 7/10

Re: Limitless
I saw this in the frozen screen 4 of Swiss Cottage Odeon, which is being closed on 17 March for renovations. That explains why they haven't bothered to address the heating issues there.
I really enjoyed this one. It had a really unique feel to it and those zooming forward through New York City shots were nearly hypnotic. It all felt surreal and it was a refreshing change. I was surprised at how well Bradley Cooper lead this story. It's an impressive performance and I hope this finds an audience. Seeing Robert DeNiro in such a limited role is strange, but it was the right amount of screen time for the character. That said, there was nothing about the character that needed to be played by DeNiro, it's more of a bonus than anything.
I agree with those who felt reminded of Inception. This is another one of those psychological sci-fi flicks (though it's obviously a lot more straight-forward than Inception) and I'm happy to see more of them. I think this was a great idea that was very well executed, however, with a tighter script and some sharper dialogue, this could have been a fantastic film. I'd definitely see this again and would love a bonus filled blu-ray of it. 8.5/10

Re: Limitless
I had really high expectations for this film and I must say I was not let down, it was absolutely fab! I stayed interested and entertained throughout every second of the film. The story was different and the acting was really good 8/10
