Paul
Verhoeven always makes movies BIG popcorn movies that are always
popular with the male demographic, but he does it in such a
stylish way one can see why. From Robocop to Basic Instinct up to
his latest Starship Troopers. Yet again he doesn't disappoint with
Total Recall.
I remember seeing this movie with
some friends quite a few moons ago and it hasn't looked better.
Arnold Schwarzenegger plays Douglas
Quaid a man who is bored with his life and is having dreams every
night about a life on Mars. His wife played by Sharon Stone tries
to keep his mind of his dreams but to no avail. Doug goes to
Rekall a company that can insert dreams into your mind without
even going there! During the implant process Doug goes crazy and
has a previous memory unlocked. The previous memory included a
life as a secret agent on Mars.
Now his wife, friends and almost
everyone else are trying to kill him. Who can Doug trust. Well he
thinks that only a trip to Mars will answer that. Good
entertainment choice really.
Filled with plenty of gratuitous
violence, this is an entertaining disc.
