The first time I saw this, I thought, wow, this is real neat.
Then I started to think about it's message.
That the key to your success and bringing out your best is 'outside' you - in a pill.
Jerry Garcia once said this of Western medicine, that you are told the solution is outside you, in a pill.
I think it's a poor message for younger adults to say, it's all the pill ! Not you.
I'd much rather have someone who maybe - meditates and finds a place in themselves they can draw on for equal intellectual feats as seen in this movie.
The movie opens up first scene showing him disheveled, saying 'For someone who doesn't have a drug or alcohol problem, who looks like this - a writer is who'
Well he's smoking a cigarette - there is your drug problem and the very next scene he's at a bar drunk - sitting at the bar slamming beers, and there is your alcohol problem right there.
I'd even argue alcohol IS A drug, in fact, this entire movie promotes substance abuse.
Fun watch, but keep in mind the message isn't a good one.

Well - the 2.7 rating is HIGH.
REAL nice special effects with the fire, someone clearly imported some computer graphics effects processing to the project, but short of that?
You will want to skip this one, it's not even so bad it's good.
I didn't recognize any of the actors, but the shaky camera on opening scene was a hint to me this is amateur hour.
I struggle to figure out who would make a movie like this.
It's worse than bad.
