Total Recall remake is not the 1990s movie… only it is, just a lot less fun, a lot less interested in its mind-bending premise, and a lot less exciting. It is a lot more serious and it looks a lot better and says bye-bye Mars and hello… Australia via a building-size elevator through the center of the Earth (probably made of unobtanium brought back from Pandora, I guess). Anyhow, this movie is just kind of boring… it’s somehow not as smart as a Schwartzenegger movie that features eyes bugging out of their skull and it looks like it’s more action-packed, but comes off as more by-the-numbers than a movie with a Johnny-Cab. I can neither hate or like this movie since it barely happened and I’ll probably have forgotten about it by tomorrow.
