started off promising but they couldn't quite get the idea across

she goes from killing without feeling

to becoming omnipotent like god

good idea for a movie poorly executed

but scarlett is hot!!!!

Felt a little like the anime movie Akira.

Was slightly tempted to rent it a few times but never have just because of the reasons in this thread. I saw one preview were it looked potentially watcheable.

When she turned into the Spiderman Venom Spew and entered the internet was the ultimate in stupidity.

They never explained how she could ingest so much of that drug and not die.

Fucking sucked. Scarlett's looks are shot now too so it was a double loss.

Started ok, ended terribly.

I thought it was OK until the end, shitty ending... Scarlett's looks are shot? Huh?

bigmc · « **Reply #9 on:** August 08, 2015, 12:43:34 AM »

scarlett is still hot as....

I loved the movie, the movie sucked me in it!

Much like the movie "limitless" staring bradley cooper, I loved that shit!!!

It's a Besson flick, so you'll have visuals trumping narrative. Waste of Freeman, but car chase was decent.

Couldn't make it through. Wouldn't your first thoughts be how to make more and how to improve them?

And then the guy who can do any fucking thing at all sets about impressing some rich wanker so that he can get a job. Ya hi I'm limitless, can I have a job working for you? Wat?

I enjoyed it. Two stars out of four. I enjoyed "Limitless" more. 2.5 stars out of four.

bigmc · « **Reply #14 on:** August 08, 2015, 09:03:43 AM »

limitless is just dressed up drug addiction social commentary imo

Stop watching movies if absolute realism is what you want. I only feed my imagination. It would be awesome to just take a pill that activates your brains memory so you can remember everything you skimmed through, read, watched, heard. Damn... I would get so much pussy...

Movie is excellent for me if it can suck me in the movies world so to speak, that it makes me feel how the characters might feel in the movie. That's all it is to me, getting hypnotized.

So basically this is something that will annoy me even more than something I turned off halfway through. Still. Scarlett.

And stop that. Who gives stars out of four? Movies are out of 5, women are out of 10. People start fucking around with stars and all hell breaks loose.

I'm old. Sorry my system needs updating but I will work on it. Here...Lucy gets 2 out of 5 and Limitless 3 out of 5. Better?

Time for my Geritol !

Maybe it ended well. It just really annoyed me that he wanted to get a job. My disbelief suspension crane broke.

I bet you guys would rate something really fucking lame 5/5

Yes a job. The most lucrative "job" in the world which is a stockbroker if you have the brain the guy had. You still need money in this world no matter what. And then he wanted to be gordon gecko and he almost got it too, makes sense.

What would you do if you had computer memory all of a sudden? You would make money, and making money is working. What work would you do if you had the memory of a computer?

Gee. I don't know. Start composing music. Creating art. Help with medical issues. Become an agent for peace.

Yes, work and money. But wasn't he already doubling his money every day on his own? Starting with a penny, by the end of the squares on the checkers board he'd rule the world. I think I read that somewhere but I never did the math to confirm.

Imo the nicest thing about money is forgetting about it.
