Movie Review: Selfless

The premise of this movie; which is transferring the memories, personality and essentially the brain of another human who is dying to another body has always been an interesting one and there have been other movies in the past that have tried to address this idea. The way to make this interesting is to add the criminal mind and money and the lie that the bodies that there are using to transfer are manufactured and not real people. The idea that real people are being used makes the whole idea a caper and chase movie and creates many scenes of action and violence. The part of this movie that tries to create more action makes the whole idea more run of the mill and we have seen all of this before. Some parts of this movie were hard to follow and made no logical sense, especially much of the ending.

Due to these problems I cannot recommend this movie, despite the overall good idea behind it.
