Not excited about Seven Psychopaths, the sophomore feature from writer-director Martin McDonagh? Then that must because you didn't see the playwright's first movie, In Bruges. Since debuting in 2008, that elegiac, darkly and unstoppably funny gem has slowly been building the fanbase it deserves, so go watch it, join the cult, and come back here for the first four official images from Seven Psychopaths, as well as plenty of new information on the film's story and characters.
In the intelligent action-thriller Limitless, Bradley Cooper plays Eddie Morra, a misanthropic writer who lucks into a stash of NZT, a superdrug that unlocks the full potential of his mind and sets him on the road to untold wealth and power that is, well, limitless.
Right now, your Blu-ray collection, no matter how vast and demonstrative of impeccable taste, is lacking something special, just like Eddie was. Your collection obviously lacks Limitless, which will provide an NZT-style boost to your library that may not lead to riches and power, but will definitely provide hours of unique entertainment.
So Zack Snyder's Sucker Punch didn't debut at number one last weekend; despite our consensus-minded culture, popularity and quality don't necessarily go hand in hand. There's always next weekend, anyways, and in order to entice you into paying hard-earned money to see the fetishized action-fantasy, Warner Bros is offering the first five minutes of the film online for free. So take a few minutes and get acquainted with Baby Doll, played by Emily Browning.
Just a single, clear tablet of NZT, the fictitious drug that unlocks the full potential of a human mind, runs about $800.No small price to pay to get your synapses firing at heretofore unprecedented speeds, but still, there's an easier, cheaper way to approximate the mental and physical rush that accompanies a dose of NZT: Limitless. In the Relativity Media film, Bradley Cooper plays a scrubby, out of work writer who stumbles upon a stash of the rare pharmaceutical and becomes an exemplar of human perfection.
Fresh off its triumphant first weekend performance as the number one movie in America, Relativity Media's Limitless is up for nominations in three MTV Movie Awards categories, and if you want to see an NZT-enhanced awards ceremony, then you gotta rock the vote. Unlike the Academy Awards, the MTV Movie Awards are voted on by you, the moviegoer. Starting Tuesday, March 22nd, and continuing through April 5th, you can vote to select the nominees in each category, including unconventional entries such as 'Best Kiss', 'Biggest Badass Star', and 'Best Scared as S**t Performance'.
After just three live action feature films, director Zack Snyder has developed a signature visual style, and with his fourth movie, Sucker Punch, it looks like he's taken that style to new extremes. The story – which has certain thematic similarities to Pan's Labyrinth – contrasts stunning, action-packed fantasy sequences with the oppressive daily reality faced by an institutionalized young woman known only as Baby Doll. You can see Emily Browning in action as Baby Doll in four new clips from Sucker Punch, which jumpkicks its way into theaters this Friday.
If you were lucky enough to take even a single pill of NZT, as Bradley Cooper's character Eddie does in Limitless, you'd be able to read a book in minutes, master a language in hours, and learn to play the piano in days. Movies, however, would still take just as long to watch. With this in mind, we're offering you the chance to essentially watch Limitless in about one minute flat. Don't worry, it's not spoiler-heavy. So go ahead and get a taste of your brain on NZT.
Until recently, Bradley Cooper was most well known for his role as just one member of The Hangover's Wolfpack, but with this weekend's Limitless, the actor has now proven himself as a newly-minted leading man. In the film, co-starring Robert DeNiro and Abbie Cornish, Cooper plays Eddie Morra, a struggling writer who suddenly finds himself in possession of a drug called NZT, which allows him to access his brain's seemingly infinite potential. At a press conference for Limitless, Bradley Cooper discussed the pressures of his new-found profile, the implications of NZT, acting with DeNiro, and his own ideas about the future.
In Limitless, The Hangover's Bradley Cooper plays a down-on-his-luck writer who happens upon a wonder drug called NZT, which allows him to access the full potential of his mighty, highly evolved human brain. Benefits of NZT use include, but are not limited to, unprecedented financial success, sudden linguistic skills, increased automotive efficacy, romantic irresistibility, indomitable hand-to-hand combat, and increased confidence. To put these cinematic skills in the context of real-world brain science, we've got a handy infographic entitled 'How We Use Our Brains'. Stimulate your mind by taking a look, it's easily cheaper than a single hit of NZT:
The wonder drug NZT, which allows a human mind to operate at its fullest potential, presents all sorts of obvious benefits. In Limitless, Bradley Cooper discovers that these benefits include massive financial success, fighting expertise, and the ability to impress his girlfriend, Abbie Cornish, with unparalleled linguistic dexterity. Of course, with all of these positive effects, NZT must also have at least a few drawbacks, and these intense clips give you an idea of the dangers associated with excessive NZT usage.
