Taking a trip in The Limitless Express is like a two hour simulator ride that feels like an hour. There are twist and turns. So step right up and take The Limitless Express only $10.00 per ticket. The ride's dialogue is half narrating and half acting (how's that for being original). Let me tell you the plot before going to the ride. The film starts with a man named Eddie Mora (played be The Hangover's Bradley Cooper) about to commit suicide. Why? Well this story is mainly told through flashback. He was a writer with a bad case of writer's block (he only has one word in his book), his wife just broke up with him, and his brother in law came and gives him a drug called NZT-48 (he said that it's FDA approved but later we find out he stole it from the lab so its illegal). Eddie however decides to take it and became smarter in a few minutes. The drug however has some serious side effects that includes that if you stop taking NZT-48 you die, blackouts and becomes addicted to the drug as in one sequence Eddie murders a person and (don't say I didn't warn you) drinks his blood because his blood has the formula for NZT-48. This ride is well acted, has mind bending visuals (which makes it's $27 million dollar budget look like $70 million), and it's fast paced. So go on to Limitless. Warning: there are possible side effects that includes motion sickness and a possible angry complain to the writer that his script is uneven.
