The life of an unsuccessful writer is transformed by a top-secret 'smart drug' that allows him to use 100% of his brain and become a perfect version of himself. His enhanced abilities soon attract shadowy forces that threaten his new life.
Limitless is a 2011 American science fiction thriller film directed by Neil Burger and written by Leslie Dixon. Loosely based on the 2001 novel The Dark Fields by Alan Glynn, the film stars Bradley Cooper, Abbie Cornish, Andrew Howard, Anna Friel, and Robert De Niro. It follows Edward Morra, a struggling writer who is introduced to a drug called NZT-48 that greatly enhances his brain function, which helps him improve his lifestyle.
