Just another in the string of money grab movies with Bruce Willis. Bruce Willis gets paid to basically show up do a few lines and bow out about mid movie. Does just enough so they can say he is in their movie and use his name to get viewings. Story line itself had potential to be a decent movie, but unfortunately falls short. As it was never anything other than a quick money grab. Even Dominic Purcell only has a few lines and pretty much takes over to fill the gap in the movie after Bruce Willis exits at around movie. Almost like Bruce and Dominic tag teamed this one. As many have already said it's a true disappointment, especially if you are a Willis fan. But that's seems to be how he wants to end his career, by sell out his name, reputation and fans for a few lines in low budget movies for quick cash.

A Military outfit creates a technologically advanced chip that allows a user to take over their subject, mentally and physically, allowing them to kill their subjects and leave no trace of who's behind it. Great idea, woeful execution, I stuck this film out through to the bitter end, and wish I hadn't, this was an absolute chore to get through, rather to endure. I couldn't get into it, it's like they pulled the rug from under our feet, stuff was happening and I didn't have a clue why, it took so long to settle and explain, but by then this poor excuse for a sci fi thriller had lost me. How sad to think that this was the final film for Bruce Willis, think of the many wonderful movies he's delivered, sadly this is one for fans of his to forget. He's good, but sadly doesn't get much screen time. If I ever hear 'this is not my body again' I will scream. One to avoid. 3/10.

Judging by some of the reviews here, there are still quite a few viewers who don't know about Bruce Willis's aphasia condition, and that his appearance in movies over the last three or four years have mainly served to boost a film's box office appeal. That's why he has only limited screen time, even when top billed as a principal character. Willis actually appeared genuinely alert in his role here as tech mogul Valmora, and I'd have to say that the concepts explored in the story are quite interesting. They would make for an excellent script in the hands of a skilled writer who could take them and fashion a reasonable story out of the lot. What you have here though, is a feeble attempt at identity switching and memory contamination that winds up being almost silly. The bathtub gimmick itself leads one to question 'why'? The resolution to the story is a real puzzler and difficult to follow, and as with most of his recent pictures, Bruce Willis isn't even around to figure in the denouement. I try to maintain some balance between respect for Willis and his medical condition and the quality of the films he appears in, and this one sadly, doesn't serve well for his final screen appearance.

hello

Not gonna bash the film like everyone else so hear me out. Was it the best sci-fi? No. Was it completely original? No. But I can say that the ending was very good, had an amazing twist and that weird aspect to the very very end of the film before credits. I love sci-fi and I get tired of the same old plot and plot twists, while this concept was not complexly original (as most films) it did have a lot of concepts I had not seen in modern sci-fi. The beginning was very dragged out and I felt a lot of it could have been cut on the chopping block honestly. With that said, a lot of it was very crucial for the twist at the end. So I'll give it a bit of grace. The emotion from the women in this film was riveting and I don't use that word every often lol. It was raw and compelling and I felt for not only the protagonist but also the assistant. She understood how destroying the program was and seeing her show quiet signs of fear and mental struggle was very heart warming and real to me. As someone who cries in private a lot but keeps a brave face on I felt her so much. The protagonist, she is not some bad a super woman, I loved seeing her fail, make mistakes, get her butt beat, lol etc etc. Again realism. And as stated above I felt the twist at the end was more devistating because it showed that he could have coexisted with Adrian as the girls did. But idk if that would have been cool with Adrian lol. I really want to go in more depth but I'm trying not to leave spoilers. I'm sorry I'm not the type to EXPECT anything from a film but a good story and some twists and turns. I love sci-fi and short films I prefer over Hollywood and the comments are showing many prefer Hollywood over indie. This film no matter that Bruce Willis was in it felt very indie and I loved that feel. It wasn't riddled with a bunch of bs. Slow start but definitely great middle and bombastic ending.

I was in Iraq for 30 months and an IED almost blew me into my left hand to the another world now its just a piece of metal hand and I don't even have PPTSD now this movie want me to believe a trained special-op soldiers cant take 3 months of mental hardship have you ever heard about marine and special forces which i was was one.30 months of bullets and rockets around you is worst than 3 months of cold shower forger 30month 3month of combat zone is worse and this dude could take not taking risk in a bathtub? Disrespectful heard of? It' s a shame Bruce Willis ended his career with this he barely has 20 minutes of screen time and no real dialogue. And other actors are awful and devastating they are all play their roles like robots. I had high expectations but it made me crumble and the ending was the worse thing I have ever seen in a while. Don't waste your money just skip this junk.

Alexa (Nomzamo Mbatha) is angry that her drone pilot husband is somehow in a coma after a mission. Valmora (Bruce Willis) reveals that he leads a secret experimental program which commandeers unsuspecting victims and turning them into assassins. They are being hunted by a rival group with the same tech. Alexa has to take the place of her husband in order to take down Adrian (Dominic Purcell). Apparently, this is the last Bruce Willis film. The character isn't doing much other than be the mercurial boss. The camera is able to fake it well enough. The idea is fine sci-fi material. The execution could be better and it fades over time. It's a B-movie of limited ability. It's actually better than I expected, but that's not saying much.

Enjoyed this a lot! Really well done lighting and sets with solid performances from a big cast, including Bruce Willis in more of a mentor type role. Crazy concept that's well executed. The plot was based on a short film and is probably the most inventive Hollywood action movie storyline I've seen in a while. The government military develops a way to put trained soldiers into other peoples bodies. They kill the bad guys in the other persons body and then jump out and let that random person take the fall for it with no memory of the event. It utilizes interesting lo-fi sci-fi technology that makes it feel real.
