Self/Less


In this provocative psychological science fiction thriller, an extremely wealthy man (Ben Kingsley) dying from cancer undergoes a radical medical procedure that transfers his consciousness into the body of a healthy young man (Ryan Reynolds). But all is not as it seems when he starts to uncover the mystery of the body’s origin and the organization that will kill to protect its cause.

I was worried going in to this one that it would be one of those high concept ideas of a movie that would fall flat in the end.  Happily, I was wrong.  The movie wasted no time with an unnecessary story build up and got right to the procedure that you are already familiar with from the trailer.  The movie did a nice build with some good twists and turns and played out very well without the letdown that I was afraid of.  

I would recommend people checking this movie out.  It's not a must see or anything but it is a pretty good watch.
