I need me some NZT

Rating: 7/10 (23 June 2018)

A drug that puts your entire brain to use? That's the drug I have been looking for all my life. So I was super keen on watching this movie. It didn't disappoint. It was every bit of the crazy ride I would expect it to be. The super-highs of being able to use your brain to its maximum potential. The terrible lows of withdrawal. The dangers of getting mixed up with the wrong people and rubbing powerful people the wrong way. This movie portrayed all of these brilliantly. What I liked even better was that the movie didn't take a preachy "don't do drugs, it's bad for you" turn towards the end. In fact, Eddie goes on to become the senator and still continue to pop the magic pill. Great movie.
