Thesis Statement

One of my favorite movies of all time is the movie Limitless. This movie is about an unsuccessful writer who takes a pill. On this pill he gets really smart and finishes his book. He also gets to be really high up in the stock market. The whole movie though he is in danger. My thesis statement is going to be, "The materialistic view of American society makes people want to be the best they can be at all cost, which is why Eddie takes the pill to get to the top, even though he gets hurt in the process."
