Limitless hits you like an adrenaline rush that will have you saying, "I'll have what he's having."
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone, 03.18.2011 -
Limitless may not be as brainy as it would like to think it is, but it's a relatively sharp and surprisingly playful head-trip, a satisfyingly novel twist on mindless entertainment.

The filmmakers doesn't sweat the fact that Eddie is a chemically enhanced fraud. What scares them is any possibility of alienating the movie's target audience with a downer ending.

You could pick the script apart for impossibilities. But why bother? It's much more enjoyable to shut your brain off and have a good time.
