Basically a movie about Nootropics, but considering a new pill contains everything concentrated and acts instantly.
It really was a nice film, i enjoyed every minute of it.

I loved this movie! The story was kinda stupid at times, like why he did'nt just make the pills at the beginning(Since he is so smart on them). Then the whole movie is avoided.

oh yea, Whatever happened to the drug addict girl. his ex..Did she just end up on the street? lol

also, the idea that we only use 20% of our brains seems false to me. Anybody know the full detail?

yahoo answers was first thing i clicked on

....There are no such studies. Brain capacity and usage varies greatly from person to person, and besides, there's no way to quantify it. What you hear are people repeating "folk wisdom" suggesting the power of the human brain.

The spirit of what they say is accurate, though. The truth of the matter is that if you have a normal 100% of it gets used every day. The thing is, it could be used a whole lot better, and it could be used a whole lot more. 80% more? I would say a whole lot more than that. There is no known limit to how much information and processing the brain can do.

Keep in mind, in the average brain there are more neuronal connections than there are stars in the entire universe. Go for it!

That quote has been mis-quoted all the time. I always hear the 15% version of it...

I think the truth is that you only use 15% at a time.

seems more reasonalbe..maybe it is that most of the time we only use 15% of our brains...then it would work imo
