The Limitless Bradley Cooper.

Well, according to Friday box office office numbers, it is quite possible. Limitless raked in an estimated cool $6.6 million big ones, and by the end of the weekend, that number could balloon to $18 million in box office ducats! Not too shabby, don’t you think?

Bradley Cooper has been called charismatic and we all know he’s got that winning smile and sparkling baby blues that he uses to good effect. He’s also pretty likable with 74% of audiences giving Limitless the thumbs up and critics giving the rags to riches thriller not too shabby reviews so far.

Cooper, who we all remember from that shocking and hilarious film The Hangover, has reprised his role in The Hangover Part II despite feeling trepidatious about the sequel’s success. (Its predecessor scored $277 million in domestic box office monster success, and that’s a bar that’s raised pretty high.) The original film’s outrageous antics struck the funny bone of audiences, made it a mega hit and really put Cooper on the map. He followed up with a smallish role in the Renee Zellweger vehicle Case 39, a role in Valentine’s Day, and a role in The A-Team. Needless to say his career has been gaining steady traction.

But is it Bradley Cooper or the story that is bringing in the audiences? Limitless is about a struggling author who takes a drug that enables you to harness 100% of your brain power. He enjoys a meteoric rise to the top and superhuman capabilities, a few side effects compliments of the the drug NZT-48, and some craziness. Robert DeNiro stars in the film as well, and it is a great rags to riches story, but it is Cooper that dominates the movie, and that my friends is what movie stars are made of.

So will Limitless make Bradley Cooper a star? He’s pretty much on the verge, and Limitless just might push him over the edge. What do you think? Limitless is in theaters now.

Colin Farrell has let himself go for Horrible Bosses.

Is this the new and improved version of Colin Farrell? Luckily it isn’t. He’s just let himself go for his new role in the comedy Horrible Bosses. Go to hair and makeup that is. That’s Farrell in full costume. Talk about dedication, but do you wonder if we are getting a rare glimpse into the bizarro future?

And no, Colin Farrell and Rihanna are not dating. *wink, wink!*

Rihanna and Colin Farrell dating?

Ah, St. Patrick’s Day. Once a day to honor good old St. Patrick, now it’s morphed into a day to drink green beer and act like heathens wearing green while trying to trap leprechauns and squeeze their gold from them. Simply barbaric, lol. So, if you want to have a wee bit of a tamer evening, here are 5 movies that will do the trick of celebrating St. Patty’s Day without the horrible hangover. Unless of course you’re guzzling green beer while watching them! Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

5. Far and Away (1992) - A wonderful romantic love story a bout a rich Irish lass and a scrappy Irish poor boy who venture off to America together in a bid for the land of their dreams in the great West. Starring Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, it is one of my all time favorites.

4. Ondine (2009) – An Irish fisherman finds a woman in his net and believes he has found a legendary Selkie and falls in love. A bit of a yarn but a quaint little love story nonetheless starring Colin Farrel and the lovely Alicja Bachleda.

3. Gangs of New York (2002) – Directed by Martin Scorsese, this is a film about, well, gangs in New York in 1863. A very scary place indeed where street rumbles and revenge seemed like an everyday thing. Starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Cameron Diaz and the amazing Daniel Day-Lewis, this is one film sure to entertain.

2. In the Name of the Father (1993) – A true life story of the Guildford Four. A man is forced to admit to the IRA bombing of Guildford Pub and is falsely convicted of the crime, and both he and his father are imprisoned. A British lawyer must prove their innocence and fight for their freedom. Starring the uber talented Daniel Day-Lewis and the late Pete Postlethwaite, and co-written by the real Gerry Conlon.

1. My Left Foot (1989) – This is an Academy Award winning film about the Irishman Christy Brown, a man born with cerebral palsy who triumphs over his disability by learning to paint and write with his only controllable limb which is his left foot.  He goes on to become a poet, an author and a painter. This is an amazing story about the strength of human nature, starring once again, the incomparable Daniel Day-Lewis. ***Warning!!! This trailer is fan made so the clips include language not suitable for children!!!*** That being said, it’s pretty good.

Wow! That Daniel Day-Lewis has the Irish movie market cornered!

This movie looks totally irreverent and wholly hilarious. It’s definitely on my to see list. I wonder if the Diaz-Timberlake reunion was the reason for his split from Jessica Biel. Or was it the Mila Kunis factor? Hmmm, just sayin’.

Now that you’ve seen the approved version, here’s the so not PG friendly version compliments of Daily Motion. Click at your own sensibilities’ peril!
