Ugly, stupid, loud, offensive, and pointlessly violent--let's not mince words--this film should be called TOTAL REJECT. This is prime example of an unfortunate tendency in modern blockbuster moviemaking. Runningly mindlessly amok drunk on money and contempt, TOTAL RECALL is overloaded with
inelegant special effects, bone-crunching "action," hideously cheesy make up effects, and gaping plot holes. That's entertainment? Any intelligent science fiction fan would be well advised to steer clear of this turkey and read a book instead. The late great Philip K. Dick must be retching in his
grave at this "adaptation" of his short story, "We Can Remember It for You Wholesale...
