2011 version of Fight Club

Rating: 8/10 (30 March 2011)

2011 version of Fight Club! When one sees Limitless and has watched Fight Club, they will notice similarities between the two movies. The beginning and the end of Limitless were inspired by Fight Club. How did I get here plot twist is used. The director's flow, style, mixed with the script's plot devices of blackouts, different personalities with the character, and the film's character's self-realization about himself creates a modern day version of Fight Club. Both movies show a protagonist who hates his current life and needs a change. Furthermore, both stories take off when the protagonist meets a sleazy antagonist character. Instead of the destruction of the main character, both Limitless and Fight club create a liberated protagonist. Is the protagonist liberated? One will not know unless there is a part two. If you like Fight Club you will love Limitless. Eight out of ten pills for limitless. I wonder if Cooper is another dynamic actor like Ed Norton?
