The show began with a promising pilot, it seemed as if it will be a proper continuation for the movie. It showed everything that we liked in the movie: a guy that was lost, not being able to move forward with his life, then a sudden gift - a pill that allows him to achieve the full potential of his brain, twist with killed friend and FBI trying to pin the murder on him. All of it seemed promising and interesting, continuing the concept of the limitless movie. However, with the second episode it is already visible that the show takes a sudden turnabout where it becomes just another cop show with a genius solving crime. This review is not meant to insult the show, however the show does not really implement the idea of the NTZ effect, it just becomes a crime solving show and it is a huge letdown after a promising pilot. For someone who is searching just for another crime show, this will probably be interesting and fun, but for those expecting part 2 of the limitless movie, I recommend not watching it as you will most probably be disappointed, especially after the first episode that showed potential only leading to a much greater letdown in the coming episodes.
