I like the idea behind this movie, mainly because Big Pharma is *really* excited about doing research into cognitive enhancers right now, and drugs like NZT will likely be entering human trials within the next five years. DARPA's got their ubiquitous fingers in that pie, too, and the entire US Armed Forces are slavering for drugs that heighten awareness.
Hopefully, someone will figure out how to synthesize a form of DMT that induces hyperaesthesia and expanded awareness without also inducing brain-warping, Terence-McKenna-making hallucinations.
