Aspect Ratio: 2.35:1Audience Rating: R (Restricted) Binding: Blu-ray EAN: 0012236191537 Format: Anamorphic, Color, Dolby, DTS Surround Sound, Subtitled Label: TriStar Pictures Languages: Manufacturer: TriStar Pictures MPN: BR19153 Number Of Items: 1 Publisher: TriStar Pictures Region Code: 1 Release Date: August 29, 2006 Running Time: 113 minutes Studio: TriStar Pictures Theatrical Release Date: June 01, 1990 Editorial Review: Amazon.com essential video: This science fiction blockbuster from 1990 began its production life as a very different movie than the one that was released. An adaptation of the Philip K. Dick short story "We Can Remember It for You Wholesale," Total Recall was originally conceived of with Richard Dreyfuss starring as a Walter Mitty-like character who experiences a variety of artificially induced fantasies. The movie we know is a mega-budget action epic set on Mars. Arnold Schwarzenegger plays a normal working man who discovers that his entire reality has been invented to conceal a plot of planetary domination. Oscar-winning special effects and violent action propel the twisting plot, in which Arnold manipulates his manipulators in a world of dazzling high technology. Director Paul Verhoeven (Robocop) indulges his usual penchant for gratuitous bloodshed, but the movie has enough cleverness to rise above its excesses. --Jeff Shannon Amazon.com: This science fiction blockbuster from 1990 began its production life as a very different movie than the one that was released.

 Rating: - An enjoyable couple of hours.Sci-fi actioner set in the year 2084 in which Arnold Schwarzenegger plays a construction worker who discovers that his memory has been erased and that he had a secret life on Mars that he cannot remember and which follows Schwarzenegger's quest as he travels to Mars to find out what he has forgotten, all the while trying to avoid people who are trying to kill him because of what he now knows. A good sci-fi B-movie directed by Paul Verhoeven and starring the ever irrepressible Schwarzenegger in the ...

I saw NO blocking or few artifacts so I'm not sure what going on with other peeps equipment - I am using a PS3 with a Panasonic AE-900U front projector and a 40 foot HDMI cable. The picture can look soft at times and fairly sharp at others so perhaps it's partially the source material. At any rate for 13 bones plus change it's a bargain given ... Read More Rating:  - GIB DIS PEEPLE EAAIR!Total Recall is EASILY one of the funniest and most violent science fiction movies around! It's also one of the overall best Arnold Schwarzenegger movies of all time. It's so good that I can't possibly write a review comprehensive enough; I'll just honor Arnold and Total Recall as best I can. Arnold is married to Sharon Stone - at possibly her sexiest shortly before exploding onto the scene in Basic Instinct - but wants to go on vacation to Mars because of recurring dreams in which he cavorts ... Read More Rating: - NMy Blu-ray looks awesomeI'm not sure about the reviewers here who claim that this is a terrible Blu-ray quality transfer because they see blocking, spotting and other artifacts. I've watched my Blu-ray disc 3 times in the last week and I see nothing wrong with the image quality. Great details, great colors, no blocking or compression artifacts. I wonder if the reviewers who see image quality issues on their disc have the settings on their TV or DVD player set wrong, or it they just have a crummy TV. I'm playing my disc on a PS3 ... Read More Rating: - Arnold and Stone!!!!!!Stone before she turned into Hollyweirds biggest nympho. Arnold, before he was the Governator. Great special effects for its time. A fantastic story set on Mars. The mutated humans are freaky cool. Great directing, great acting, great everything. Arnold made some pretty bad movies but he also made some of the best ones ever. Total Recall is definitely one of the better ones out there. A must see for action, sci fi fans. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! |
