Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
gawain-15641 If this film had been billed as comedy instead of science fiction I would have given it a higher rating. But, alas, it seems that the director was only trying to appeal to the most unsophisticated audiences possible; and in that regard I guess he succeeded. The acting was terrible throughout. Arnold was his usual wooden self with some of the worst dialogue imaginable. Even his patented tough guy one-liners were predictable and lame (he says "consider that a divorce" after shooting Sharon Stone, his pretend wife, in the head). And most of his actions scenes, which comprised most of the movie, were simply laughable. It seems to me that Arnold's best acting work is as a robot.Sharon Stone wasn't much better unless her goal was to portray a cartoonish, sleazy bitch that no one could take seriously. If that was the case she pulled it off pretty well.It actually scares me to see so many reviewers rate this piece of trash 10 stars. What were they watching! How low are their standards! I suppose if all it takes are a bunch of loud explosions, lots of breaking glass, and completely implausible chase scenes to make one happy, then this film delivers on all counts. But is that what it has come to?After viewing this gigantic failure I Googled Philip K Dick to see if he was still around to witness this atrocious portrayal of his work. He wasn't. It was sad to see that he died so young (53), but at least he didn't have to witness this insult to his talent and imagination. Oh well, we'll always have Blade Runner!
O2D I wasn't expecting much from an Arnold Schwarzenegger movie but this was actually pretty good. I'm not really into action movies but this has plenty of fights and shoot outs, if that's your thing. There are a few good jokes. My favorite is that the midget hooker is named Thumbelina. That's comedy gold. The special effects aren't the best, it's easy to see that they are in front of a green screen, but it doesn't really hurt the movie. I'm sure the reboot has much better effects, I will have to check it out.
absalom-619-97223 One of the best movie i ever saw. Great plot, great cast ,entertaining, punch lines, twists, and endless action. I'm watching this film on my iPad almost every night. For a deep sweet sleep... personally I prefer the implant chair dream perception because all the violence thereafter seemed not a real one... Arnold Sharon Melina Ronnie Michael and Benny are unforgettable TOTAL RECALL FOREVER
taunotooming Total Recall (1990 version) is one of the best sci-fi thrillers I have watched so far. The idea behind the movie is thought-provoking, the plot is well thought and keeps the viewer interested in during the whole length of the film. The acting is not great, but at the same time, it does not need to be great! There are some funny "Arnold lines", some silly and some terrific scenes and the film as a whole works just as it is made. I would give it 7 out of 10. Definitely worth your money and time, entertaining and memorable. It isn't just one of the great movies - there are some essential items missing, but it doesn't not need to be!
