Limitless

Great mix of what all these producers put together. Documentary of science combined with big time action actor. Love the cinematography, build up of story and sound combined with the challenges and openness.

It's like watching real life training to be invincible. Chris did it all. Very impressed. I couldn't do these tests. Surprised we haven't seen other actors show their training like this. Makes a ton of sense and is quite entertaining. Love that Chris brought his pals along for the ride.

I don't want to give much away but I think this was done real well and I still have 35 characters to write...

This six episode docu-series is entertaining to watch, and, at times, educational - in a very fun way. Limitless With Chris Hemsworth tests the limits of the human body and finds what may lead to a longer life.

Limitless With Chris Hemsworth follows -- you guessed it -- Chris Hemsworth, occasionally with his friends and family, on a six-episode journey to find ways to boost longevity and quality of life.

It's fascinating to see some unexpected ways we could achieve longevity and a better life. Of course, not all of these actions can and/or should be imitated by the average person, but there are ways that you can modify what's in the episodes and apply it to your own life. Examples include fasting for one day a month or turning the shower on cold for the last 30 seconds or spending time in a sauna - these practices can help lead to a longer life. Some of the episodes include Stress-Proof, Memory, and Strength. My favorite episode is Acceptance, where Chris gets to experience firsthand what it's like to be old and how to accept that. I really found it interesting to watch Chris Hemsworth outside of the MCU and be just himself. It adds something more personal and makes the audience feel connected to him in a new way.

The message of Limitless With Chris Hemsworth is to accept aging because it's a part of life, and yet there are ways to make life healthier and longer lasting. There are some very risky things done in this show that should not be done without expert supervision.

I give Limitless With Chris Hemsworth 5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 12 to 18, plus adults. This series comes out on Disney+ November 16, 2022. By Katherine S., KIDS FIRST!

Chris Hemsworth is very personable and watchable. And that's a good thing because a lot of detail is missed in making this high production series photogenic. The experts are wasted, in my view.

Each episode starts with a challenge to illustrate the issue. Such as managing stress, fasting or cold water. That days expert is introduced. A beautiful graphic, in pop-up book style, shows the supposed benefit. Then there is a very superficial "preparation" shown. Chris does the challenge to dramatic music. There may also be vignettes of a tribe or religious monks who practice the discipline but no explanation of whether they will benefit.

So the program cheats the audience twice. The challenge is exactly that. A challenge. For example the stress of the week was to walk along a high crane. So Chris got some coaching from a psychologist. I wanted to hear more from her. The cheat was that this did not address the real killer stress whichever is the long, grinding lifestyle kind. Work mostly. But also family, finance and environment.

The second cheat was the supposed preparation. I believe Chris did the work. But it was not shown. So the cold water swim, another challenge, had a a tiny bit on acclimation. Some surfing in a fjord. There is some evidence of benefits, and it would have been nice to see Chris increasing his exposure gradually. As I'm sure he did.

However, if this gets people interested then it will be a good thing.

We need more shows like this. It was educational, entertaining, used a host I already knew, and the footage was breathtaking. There experiments that feel corny at the moment, but the stunts are a means an to an end. It is absolutely all about the content in between the stunt scenes.

Chris shows how taking oneself seriously is far more important than getting initial praise. Time and time again he leads by example while his friends/colleagues drop out of individual challenges. The show also provides tips at the end of each episode to show how you could incorporate the new life hacks into your own routine.

Limitless starts off pretty slow. The first episode is very basic and feels stretched too long. The science in it is so simple that even the average viewer might find it hard to sit through it. The subsequent episodes are much much better and the challenges are fun to watch.

The show speeds up from the second episode and the science becomes deeper and more interesting to watch and follow.

The last episode is probably the most important one. It's slow, but in a good way this time. Certain parts even brought tears to my eyes by just thinking about the things shown for my own life. The finale gives the show a very strong ending.

The stories about different people and tribes in each episode give the show a different feel which I loved.

Some of the acting feels very forced at times and so do the dialogues. I think it's because the team has tried to make it feel like a movie. The close-up face cam with the experts also feel odd.

Chris is fun to watch as always. Ross and Peter as experts made the show very interesting. Overall, the show is great and will definitely make you rethink your daily routine, diet, exercise and other habits.

Limitless should be used as motivation for all viewers to make changes in our lives to ensure that we grow old healthy.
