A visually fun movie that, in spite of the fact uses help from the author of the book it's based on, kinda misses the point of the book. The narrative is clumsy but so darn entertaining to look at you can almost forget. Doug Liman is a truely "fun" director. Even at this point he's responsible for some of the most stylish movies. Fun, splashy affairs like Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and The Bourne Identity.He goes on further to do things like Edge of Tomorrow, Impulse and_Chaos Walking_ and as poorly a film as Chaos Walking is, it's not that bad to look at. Visually these are movies that give Limitless a run for it's money.
If you ever get a change to read the book that inspired it or the book they wrote to get inspired for the movie or the sequel to the original book. They're a much better narrative.
