Movie Reviews of Total Recall
Movie Review: Big Bang for Little Bucks
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently went high def and was searching blu-ray titles for movies with big scenes and/or big action. This one scored high on both. I probably wouldn't have sought it out but at the price I couldn't lose so I gave it a try and have thoroughly enjoyed the high def experience.
Summary of Total Recall
This science fiction blockbuster from 1990 began its production life as a very different movie than the one that was released. An adaptation of the Philip K. Dick short story "We Can Remember It for You Wholesale," Total Recall was originally conceived of with Richard Dreyfuss starring as a Walter Mitty-like character who experiences a variety of artificially induced fantasies. The movie we know is a mega-budget action epic set on Mars. Arnold Schwarzenegger plays a normal working man who discovers that his entire reality has been invented to conceal a plot of planetary domination. Oscar-winning special effects and violent action propel the twisting plot, in which Arnold manipulates his manipulators in a world of dazzling high technology. Director Paul Verhoeven (Robocop) indulges his usual penchant for gratuitous bloodshed, but the movie has enough cleverness to rise above its excesses. --Jeff ShannonThis science fiction blockbuster from 1990 began its production life as a very different movie than the one that was released.
