This movie is pretty darn cool. I also found it awesome that they used Cypher's and Trinity's actors from The Matrix in this. For being such a gimmicky movie, it sure outperforms most thrillers. It's one of those movies you just gotta see for yourself.

I don't even want to spoil the movie for people because the movie is so great that saying anything could easily take that away, but I can say that the movie is fantastic, and it deals with your ego, and how your memory plays a role in your overall sense of identity which is always a fun topic to explore.
Personally I like to think of myself as something different than just my identity because as the movie shows, your identity is memory dependant, but who you are goes beyond your personal history.
It is that self that is aware you exist and that is aware that you are thinking what counts, not the thinking itself, which is easy to confuse with who you really are.
My score for this movie is 94/100.
