Self/less

Self/less (2015) is Tarsem Singh's sci-fi thriller you can watch online on iFILM. Dying of cancer, billionaire Damian Hale (Ben Kingsley) pays for an underground procedure that moves his mind into a young, lab-built body played by Ryan Reynolds.

At first the second life feels like a clean reset: money, health, a fresh face nobody recognizes. Then the body turns out to be borrowed rather than grown. Flashes of someone else's life keep surfacing — a woman's face, a house, a little girl — and the more Damian pulls at that thread, the clearer it gets that the company selling immortality will kill to bury what it knows. The cast includes Natalie Martinez, Matthew Goode, Michelle Dockery and Victor Garber.

Singh, the visual stylist behind The Fall and Immortals, trades spectacle for chase here, building the film around one ugly bargain: what is a stranger's life worth once you have spent it on your own. Part action movie, part moral trap. Stream Self/less (2015) online on iFILM.
