Total Recall (2012)
A man's life turns out to be an illusion. This is a reboot 1990 version starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Michael Ironside. In all the ways that matter this movie is exactly the same just with arguably better players. I imagine people will like it for much the same reasons they did the first one, cool FX, action, and a 3 pack.. 0.0! Or not like it for the same reasons, lack of depth and plot. Personally I enjoyed it by watching it for what it is instead of what it isn't. This version is a lot grittier with a Blade Runner style urban backdrop and a much more oppressive feel to the whole thing. Some of the details are a little different (no Mars) but in some places the dialogue is exactly (and I do mean exactly!) the same as the previous version. Although the action is intense it isn't graphic.
