Plot: Derick Williams (Charlie Cox) and Nathan Ulrich (Brandon Routh) take part in an experiment by Dr. Stephen Mangalo (Samuel L. Jackson), which will allow them to share their minds increasing their computing power. After some time they both have horrific experiences with The Man (Ralph Fiennes).
Derick doesn't seem to find a reason why his wife Lita (Jada Pinkett Smith) is so detached with him where as Nathan's girlfriend Sophia (Penelope Cruz) is acting weird.
First they dismiss them as a side effect but later they doubt whether their experiment was sabotaged or do they know the real truth behind all of this? Were they even willing participants in this experiment?. Are Lita and Sophia also behind this?
Derick and Nathan were actually the scientists behind this experiment where as Stephen was just a third wheel to help then in their experiments. But he sabotaged their experiment and implanted them with fake memories as just participants and introduced The Man to scare them towards suicide. Their hinges in their real life which were Lita and Sophia helped them fight this through.

REVIEWS
"Scott Derrickson directs this bizarrely cast film with a sure hand. Ultimately the casting is a bit of a problem - with Charlie Cox and Brandon Routh very stiff throughout, and the cameo from Penelope Cruz is pretty distracting." - Geoff Bray, Slant Magazine
"Has there ever been a more awkward romantic pairing than Charlie Cox and Jada Pinkett Smith in the history of Hollywood? Scott Derrickson's direction really saves this film. So if you're a fan of good directing and weird, possibly drug-induced casting decisions - this is the film for you." - Clark Davis, JoBlo.com
"The elements that work in the film, like Ralph Fiennes creepy cameo, Scott Derrickson behind the camera, just can't overcome the elements that don't work." - Olive Carroll, Houston Chronicle
Rated PG-13 for frightening images and some adult content.
