I saw Limitless and it was good fun.

Just watched Jane Eyre with Mia Wasikowska - she is phenomenal! Wonderful actress - she was mesmerizing in the series In Treatment (with Gabriel Byrne) and is just terrific in Jane Eyre. I actually liked this movie better than the book! Mia humanizes Jane somehow - when I read Jane, she comes off all prissy and haughty and too goody-goody. Mia made her human and real - with passions and life.

The guy who played Mr. Rochester was *wow* hot.

Highly recommend. Esp. if you love moody love stories with crazed wives in the attic.
