Flatliners movie review: DOA
The reboot no one asked for of a movie no one much remembers has landed… and it’s dead on arrival, with nothing new to say and no new way to say it.
Limitless
The Words (trailer)
I like the look of this. Nice to see that Bradley Cooper is moving away from the likes of the Hangover movies…
why do U.K. moviegoers care what’s on the top of the U.S. box office?
If America jumped off a bridge, would Britain do it too?
question of the day: What would you do with a ‘Limitless’ pill?
Are there things that you would like to do but feel that they’re beyond your capabilities now? What would the positive and negative side effects of your endeavors be, for yourself and for the world at large?

Limitless (review)
It’s total utter complete fantasy of the best stripe, and just the kind that plugs into an ambitious but procrastinating brain.

I knew it! Bradley Cooper is not a normal human being: he’s super-duper posthuman awesome. No mere frail mortal human could possibly look like that.
