Grade: B

Bradley Cooper stars in Limitless – his character is a slacker writer who happens upon a mysterious pill that manages to magically increase his intelligence and productivity.  While his career soars, he starts to see side-effects.  Then things start happening around him that he can’t explain.  He even comes into contact with Robert DeNiro, who wants to harness these powers and use them for his own gain.  Intriguing story, and a powerful ending.  Well done.
