I just could not get into this film. Ben Kingsley is a man who has been dealt a cruel hand. He is dying of cancer which diminishes the importance of his millions of dollars. He makes a deal with a secret group to go through a process called "shedding," i.e., having his brain transplanted into what he thinks is an artificial body. Of course, we know he will do this. When he dies, his essence is placed in a buff young guy's body. Of course, now there are endless possibilities, but what he does, mostly, is play pick-up basketball. One day, he has a hallucination, or so he thinks. He sees a former self and he comes to realize that the body he inhabits is that of an actual person. Now everything interesting falls apart. It becomes a search for a daughter and wife with the evil scientists after them. I've seen this kind of stuff a million times. The ending is also about as contrived in pathetic as one can imagine.
