To do so, however, he’ll have to avoid being killed by his pretend wife (who is really an agent who has been hired to watch over him), played by Kate Beckinsale.įarrell, whose previous work includes 2008’s In Bruges and 2011’s Fright Night, said that kissing Beckinsale was “one of the more uncomfortable experiences” he’s had in his 15 years of filmmaking. “But just any little bits and pieces just to create little bubbles of experience.”įarrell’s character Quaid is a factory worker who, after visiting a place called Rekall, finds out that his whole life may be a lie that was inserted into his head, and that he’s really a lethal government agent, who may be able to protect the world from an evil leader with very bad intentions (played by Bryan Cranston). I give "Total Recall" a 9/10.“You do anything really, at times - that’s not even doing much,” he says. If you are a person who likes Action/Sci-fi's then I highly recommend you watch "Total Recall" as it is an action-packed amazing film with superb acting. "Total Recall" will remain a classic for years to come.

Finally this movie was filmed very well, there are one or two scenes that could've been done better, but only one or two. This movie had amazing visuals and very believable scenes. There is a lot of violence and blood in "Total Recall" and with big action movies like this one it is very easy to have action sequences and death scenes look horrible. "Total Recall" could've easily become a mess of a movie with plot holes everywhere, but thanks to "Paul Verhoeven's" marvellous directing an easy error never happened. The movie editors put his music in the right scenes and made this movie ever better. The music in this movie is great, "Jerry Goldsmith" did a great job composing music for this movie.
The acting in "Total Recall" is superb, yet again "Arnold Schwarzenegger" exceeds our expectations for our acting. The plot to this movie is amazing, the people who "Quaid" meets. Later he gets a message from someone telling him that he must go to mars. After an error in the process "Quaid's" brain is messed up. "Total Recall" has an amazing plot to it which is a an named "Doug Quaid" portrayed by "Arnold Schwarzenegger", who visits a virtual reality travelling agency. "Total Recall" is an amazing and fun Action/Sci-Fi movie of 1990. But sometimes those themes collapse on themselves. It just sometimes gets caught up in being too bold instead of staying bright. Overall, Total Recall is definitely one of the better sci-fi's that attempts to balance a light-hearted tone with heavy themes. There's a big difference between twists and reveals. Take Inception for example, that film deals with similar themes, but it does so by revealing things one by one, instead of depending on how shocked the audience can get. The third act is about twist after twist that feels more desperate than it does natural. And while it's an interesting question that the film proposes, this isn't necessarily what I'm referring to. I know there are endless amounts of theories about whether Quaid is dreaming or not. Whether it be because of the directing, writing, or acting, Total Recall becomes swallowed in twists and turns that don't always work in the context of the film they set up. I think where this film doesn't always succeed is when it tries to bite off more than it can chew. Schwarzenegger is great at all the action, and handles enough of the heavy and heady material to get by. Being that it's an action film, Quaid is pretty much on the run the rest of the movie, and chaos inevitably ensues. However, it becomes increasingly clear that his life that he thought he had, is no longer in reach. Douglas Quaid, played by Schwarzenegger, decided to take on the mission to gain his life back. Naturally, a lot of people choose other planets, including the habitable planet of Mars.
It takes place in 2084 where it's possible to take a "virtual vacation" to wherever you want. Total Recall is about a man caught up in a mysterious sequence of events that may just alter his life on earth for good, or should I say his life on Mars. Even when the films themselves aren't always the best, I've always found Dick's ideas to be fascinating. Dick short story, which is why it's no surprise this film tries to tackle a whole lot of interesting science fiction proposals. Luckily, most of the time everything comes together nicely.
But this time, it's handled with intelligent ideas and thought provoking themes. Much like a lot of Arnold Schwarzenegger's films, Total Recall is action packed, boasts great special effects, and one-liners.
