Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.3|5.0 Starsìììì
Self/Less—WOW! movie—rides on a strong wave of both mystery and drama. Ben Kingsley seems an odd pick for this story and then twists into the only pick for the story from its beginning to its end. The switch to Ryan Reynolds is a wonderfully surprising twist that prompts a concluding twist that is completely unexpected, but greatly appreciated. The film ends with an unusual and great twist that defies biological expectation. The movie completely involves the intellect and serves as a perfect watch for the adult audience.

Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?
Yes. Put this movie on the list of great entertainment; add it to the home video library. It self-recommends itself as a ‘put it on the map’, completely mind-engaging film. Great entertainment value.
