One of the worst movies I've ever seen

Rating: 2/10 (8 November 2014)

This movie made no sense. It's pretty risky writing a script about someone who becomes super-intelligent if you are not. If this guy was super-intelligent, wouldn't he have known how stupid it was to take this drug? So it gives you book smarts but not common sense? Why in the subway did he remember all these awesome martial arts moves, but forget them in his own apartment?
Do you need to be super-intelligent to know you should wash your hair and clean up your apartment? Whose hands were they? Why was the Russian loan shark after him if he'd paid him back? The Russian obviously had his own supply of the drug (how? He didn't even know what he had been given). Also, the guy should get his 8 Mil back for the apartment if it could be broken into so easily. And with knowing how dangerous the drug was (was it really, if all it took was to make sure you ate enough and didn't drink alcohol to make sure you had no side effects? Didn't any of the other people figure this out if they were so smart?), why would he tell his girl friend to take it? Why didn't she get hooked? There are so many things that don't make sense. Who did kill that girl? Why no more mention of the side effects? It was a great plot point then swept under the rug. Also, if he's super smart, wouldn't he know better than to hand his jacket, full of his only drug supply, to some other guy to hold? Hidden pocket or not, you can tell when you're holding someone's jacket if there's some bag of something in it. Chances are the police might have searched it anyway.
Oh, and - first, authors normally do not deal directly with publishers, they have agents. Also, unless this guy was a famous, oft-published author he NEVER would have some kind of deal or advance for a book that's not even written yet.
The only enjoyment I got out of watching this movie was making fun of it. I wish I hadn't wasted my time.
