The premise is quite original and while the movie had potential, one can deplore a scenario that doesn't develop enough certain points when they deserved more consideration, and an ending a bit abrupt, frustrating and frankly not that well handled.
Still, the plot is captivating and the different elements of the story interlink each other almost perfectly and in a very fluid manner, even if the rhythm drops a bit after the hour mark before skyrocketing in the last 15-20 minutes.
But the real strength of Limitless is the cinematography: ultra dynamic, inventive, polished, a huge work having been put into the photography by adjusting lighting, colors and contrasts according to Eddie's state. A real success.
As for Bradley Cooper, he clearly stands out, impeccable in his role,
