Self/Less [DVD] [2017]

TV

Love this film.

Generally it's one of those films you watch once. Not a classic but still quite entertaining.The story line is about a 6/10Acting 7/10

I have watched this three times. Great story line, amazing talents. Gets you thinking if the possibility of you living again in another body would you want to. Don't want to be a spoiler, just can't help myself. It's an amazing movie. Watch it.

Kingsley plays an elderly successful businessman who is dying of cancer of some other incurable disease. With only six months left to live, he invests some of his millions with a scientist who claims that he can transfer his inner self to a new and much younger cultivated body grown in a lab. He then wakes up to find that his former body has died and now he is in the body of Reynolds. It takes time for him to adjust to his new circumstances and finds that he constantly has to take a number of red pills (allusion to the matrix) to keep himself from tripping out on his internal memories and stay in reality.Soon though he finds out that his new body wasn't grown in a lab and it was actually a real living person who gave up his life to provide money to save his sick daughter. Thus, Reynolds memories are now as much part of him as his own and he quickly decides to seek out his former wife and daughter. After locating them, he realises that he is being tracked and followed by the scientist’s security team, who are trying to keep this new body transfer technology secret. The film carries on with Reynolds needing to escape from them and save his former wife and daughter with some decent action sequences that ultimately lead to a very cheesy ending.

Different and interesting.

Arrived on time, well packaged. Great film.

Great story

Kept me on the edge of my seat.

Edición en metalpack del film titulado -Eternal- en nuestro pais. En la parte delantera lleva el diseño mostrado en amazon, con la imagen de Ryan Reynolds, la parte trasera lleva los datos técnicos y alguna foto, pero ningún arte. El interior sí lleva otra imagen del film.El disco blu-ray es reproducible en región A, B y C. Contiene master audio DTS en inglés y neerlandés, y subtítulos solamente en este último idioma. Así que el principal defecto es que no tenga subtitulado en inglés, al menos.Lo he comprado por unos 5 € para tener una presentación más especial de este film, que faltaba en mi colección. No creo que merezca la pena pagar mucho más, porque no estamos ante un diseño de referencia, ni de lejos.

This movie is a true challenge for any actor and Ryan was up to the task. Ben Kingsley is brilliant as always. I hope they became good friends doing this together! 5 full stars for them and the script. Very enjoyable and well done! R Herbey.

Se fosse possibile il "travaso" di personalità con mente e ricordi da un corpo all'altro, lo farei subitissimo... almeno mi risparmierei la dieta e la palestra uahahahahahDetto ciò il film si sviluppa bene, dando luogo ad un thriller che non risulta essere mai banale e che alterna tensione da road-movie/sentimenti in un intreccio per l'appunto thriller che risulta davvero coinvolgente.

The movie dragged a little - but it had some good scenes & the plot was apparent and very thinly veiled. Oh well - another 90 min of my life I won't get back!
