Reviews

comps-784-38265 The original was good (despite Arnie's wooden acting) being original and it did have a coherent story. Total ReKall is yet another remake by the chimp script writer committee. Yes they added a 'K' in total 'rekall' . How I bet everyone slapped themselves on the back for that original and ground breaking idea. Other than that it's like they drew up a list of all the best parts of the original film/story and then discarded them or so diluted them as to be meaningless. The shame is Farrell and Beckinsale worked really well in the roles, shame they didn't have a script to match their talents. Yet another 2nd class remake (in an ever growing long list of trash remakes) where CGI and action scenes (very similar to the action scenes we have seen in so many films )Another lack lustre nondescript remake that failed to live up to expectations or even comparison with the original

Mihai Toma In a post-apocalyptic world where civilization is divided in two and linked by a huge elevator which crosses the Earth's center, an ordinary factory worker, living an ordinary life, begins to doubt his own identity after visiting a company which promises to inject memories into one's brain. He soon discovers that he has an impressive history as a spy and some amazing combat skills which he'll have to use in order to help whichever side he decides to join.It's an impressive remake of "Total Recall" from 1990 which featured Arnold Schwarzenegger as main character. I'm delighted to see a classic movie (at least for me) remade using today's technology and actors especially when the results are as good as this film. The actors were surprisingly enjoyable, especially the female antagonist who seems to put quite an effort in her acting and it shows. The whole mind bending plot is on par with the above mentioned, making your confused mind wonder over and over again about which is the truth. My expectations were beaten so I have to admit once again that I was wrong for judging a book by its cover, this movie proving to be one hell of a ride!

AlexMedario I've watched the two films in a row, first the Schwarzenegger movie, then the update. Even so the special effects, how the cities are set and an improved story, the initial film has an extra because the humor.A few differences and references of both films. This second film happens entirely in this planet. The first one was between Earth and Mars. Just a Mars reference happens when Douglas is going to be implanted the holiday memory and he states that he would love to visit the planet. The road with levitating vehicles is excellent, a real vehicle where the pilot is a ridiculous dummy.Mars is full of mutants, and this includes a prostitute with three breast. The Colony, in the recent film, has a interesting night life also, and the scene repeats when a girl shows her three breast to Douglas.I suppose there are a few more hidden references, but it's kind of a game to find them, let's try for yourself.Enjoy.

taunotooming Total Recall, the 2012 reboot version, is the mere shadow of the original. I must admit, I hoped much more from this film than it actually delivered. First, the actors! Colin Farell and Kate Winslet are real actors, good ones, I think, but the dubious script does nothing to give them something to work with. The dialogues are boring and most of the times it feels they are just there to lead from dull action scene to another. Second, the action scenes! They quickly become boring and repetitive and just artificially make the movie longer, not any way better. I would appreciate a good action movie, but the action in Total Recal:2012 is just hilarious, I must admit. I would not recommend this movie to anyone, although if you want to watch, how to make a bad movie, this one for you.
