Total Recall Trailer!!! It’s So Dreamy!!!


In the world of big budget Hollywood remakes, a film like Total Recall seems out of place. Sure, it has its fair share of loyal fans, but this 80’s flick (or, at least it was filmed in the 80’s) isn’t exactly a huge, attention grabbing franchise. When I saw the 1990 original, it felt more like a vehicle to showcase Arnold Shwarzenegger’s action star prowess than a great, memorable movie. I’ve asked everyone around the office to chime in with their opinions about this remake, and the response has been uniformly tepid, “Eh, the original was good… but a remake? Meh…”.

Well, that hasn’t stopped the good folks at Columbia Pictures from making a new one. This time Colin Farrell plays the lead, and even I have to admit…

IT. LOOKS. AWESOME.  As I’ve said before, I usually don’t like when studio execs try to milk a property by making a reboot, but this is the one time I’ll excuse it. Check out the trailer below for yourself.
