This high profile case, however, comes to a twist when Pope dies and his memories are transferred to a death row inmate Jerico as a last resort to finish the assignment. Like any crazy scientific experiment gone wrong, this movie is packed with unanswered questions of ethics of human experiments. The story may seem all over the place at times and a little lost but the great acting all the star cast and gripping plot make up for it. Gal plays a small role here but captures the screen whenever she is on it. Here you see a different side to her in the character of the dead Bill Pope’s wife where she takes a more emotional and dramatic role, particularly in the scene where she is seen softening up to Jerico after she sees a part of Bill in him.
