singin' in the brain

Rating: 8/10 (13 July 2019)

Bradley Cooper has become a household name in the past few years thanks to "Silver Linings Playbook", "American Hustle" and "A Star Is Born". Right before he became a star he appeared in this quirky sci-fi flick about a man who gains the ability to use his entire brain...with a catch. The movie's a little confusing at times due to the jumping around, but overall I found it to be a fun, entertaining flick. I guess that it's a loose adaptation of "Faust", as the protagonist does questionable things in his pursuit of wealth. Very much a New York movie. Good one.
