The evil corporation in this movie kind of reminds me of Netphlix. I dont usually write protest reviews, but its getting silly now. First they took away notebook and the rest- I didnt say anything. They said friend features were unpopular, which is ludicrous, but I still didnt say anything. They took away favorites, top ten lists, and any way to follow other users, yet I still remained stoic. But guess what they took away today? Apostrophes! Thats why my post looks like its written by a six year old. After the ridiculous 24 hour wait, my last review showed up with no apostrophes and I cant correct it. It wont let me. Apparently apostrophes were an unpopular feature too. Commas are probably next, followed by all the other unpopular punctuation marks. Then capital letters. I think Netphlix is going dismantle their user input one letter at a time. Eventually we will have write reviews using only the letter j, and then, one day, it will be over. Poof! I apologize for this non-review, I just cant take it anymore. Ive been thoroughly demoralized and Im lashing out.

Fun, but nothing special
To start: Arnold Schwarzenegger is in this movie - that alone means that it can't be taken seriously. Combine that with even more absurdity (including a three-breasted hooker and a machine-gun-toting midget) and you have the makings of (what...

Fun, but nothing special
To start: Arnold Schwarzenegger is in this movie - that alone means that it can't be taken seriously. Combine that with even more absurdity (including a three-breasted hooker and a machine-gun-toting midget) and you have the makings of (what appears to be) quite an entertaining circus.
Apart from the normal Arnold antics, however, this is an unremarkable movie. There are some interesting plot twists, but they are underemphasized to the point that they are essentially pointless in the overall story. Although this could arguably contribute to the underlying themes (something about dreams vs. reality and the dangers of a capitalist society), any subtext is completely overwhelmed by Schwarzenegger's presence. Don't get me wrong; I wasn't expecting anything more than a shallow action movie, and I certainly respect the amount of non-CGI gore thrown into the mix. But the lame (to the point of being painful) dialogue and the fact that not one head exploded in the martian atmosphere keep this from being anything more than an average action movie.
I'm glad I watched it, but I don't think that I would watch it again.

Arnie goes space age
Total Recall is one of those films that you remember from growing up. It's the film that you weren't supposed to watch, but some how mom and dad left a hopeless babysitter and you got to see it. Arnie is a steroid munching death monster, but as always, he impresses with his sharp wit and... wait for it... really big muscles. As always, I really feel sorry for the girl who played his girlfriend in the movie as she probably suffered a few broken ribs. Keep it up, arnie!

a philosophical Schwarzenegger movie
Yes, that is not a mistake, this is a movie that stars Arnold Schwarzenegger and raises some deep philosophical questions. The theme is similar to movies such as Blow Up and The Conversation or maybe even The Matrix - all films that talk about the fact that a human being can't really understand the world he lives in. You can't know what's real and what's not, you can try to understand but you will most certainly fail. It is a Schwarzenegger film so there are many action sequences and also some scenes in bed with Sharon Stone. In short, plenty to be enjoyed here.
