"TOTAL REKALL" Remake - See It!

Thought it was better that the original.

Fan of Colin Farrel and LOVE Jessica Biel and Kate Bekingsale but the truth is they can act. Much better than the original's cast. Constant action, very cool futuristic world. Something here for sci fi, action, eye candy fans. A Hot Toys treatment would be cool.

Four ninjacons...

It's almost a new movie. They took out all the humor,space travel and mutants from the first film and made it like a "Bourne"movie.It looks great and Kate Beckinsale is perfect. A mild thumbs up.

I really enjoyed it!

It did have several homages to the first movie, love the bit with the disguise and the lady in front, was a near dead ringer to the Arnold disguise, same color coat even!

Does this mean Colin Farrel is a better actor than Arnold?

I liked it, but I think the original story line is better. They never made it clear in the original story line about whether Houser was working for the resistance or the other side. But it is clear in this story, resistance.

Wow, this is the opposite from the reviews. When I saw the White Soldiers I thought they would make a perfect 1/6 figure for the collection.

I liked the first one, but didn't the wife get 'Divorced' in the first movie via death pretty early on? In this one she's a main character.
