Smart Drugs (2018)

Smart Drugs: Directed by Ann Shin. With Nikolas Badminton. If popping a pill could make you smarter and increase your memory would you take it? In this cinematic POV documentary Nik Badminton travels to Silicon Valley and immerses himself in the real world of bio-hacking and smart drugs as depicted by Hollywood films like Lucy and Limitless. As Nik tries drugs and treatments recommended by people in the business of self-optimization, he begins to question the bio-hacking movement and asks: are we losing sight of what makes us human?

“This is one of the worst documentaries Iu0026#39;ve ever watched. I donu0026#39;t even have words to accurately explain how upset I am that I just wasted an hour and a half of my time.”
