PLOT
The use of chemical weapons
made most of the place of Earth into an unhabituated place, survivors were divided
into two parts with one in the developed United Front of Britain (UFB) and
other in the underdeveloped colony where most of them depend on a transport
called “Fall” to reach UFB to make their livelihood. Douglas Quaid is also one
of the factory worker from colony, he was haunted by a series dream, so he goes
to a place known as Rekall where they give memories according to one’s own
wishes, as Doughlas is prepared to implant memories of being a Double Agent for
both Government and the Terrorists, something goes wrong, Quaid becomes a
hunted man as he finds himself on the run from police. Is ita dream or Reality?
“Total Recall” is based on
the 1990 film of the same name of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sharon Stone.The first joint movie after the marriage of Kate Beckinsale and director Lens Wiseman. It is
based on a loose plot, with much importance to actions, CGI and VFX. Characters
are always on the run, it can confuse viewers in many points. There are even
multiple theories about the ending of the movie, even the director tries to
make a point like “Inception” by releasing a Director’s cut with an added
climax scene from the Theatrical Cut. But the real fact is that it didn’t even
come near to the original “Total Recall” movie, that was even evident from its
poor domestic performance. But it was managed to perform well in the foreign market
and made an average box-office collection. It is just an another failed remake
of a great movie, but can be a good option for pure entertainment.
