Please erase from your minds the first “Total Recall,” that campy, 1990 Paul Verhoeven blockbuster in which Arnold Schwarzenegger pays a company to implant Mars vacation memories in his brain. Pretend none of it ever happened. Then watch the 2012 version of “Total Recall,” the movie’s opening initially suggests that this whole exercise might be nothing more than a “Recall” rehash. As Douglas Quaid, the role formerly occupied by Schwarzenegger, Colin Farrell awakens from a dream in which he’s trying to save a striking brunette (Jessica Biel) from some vague moment of doom. This is where the plot of “Total Recall” 2.0 begins to diverge. So what makes this 2012 “Total Recall” superior to the Arnie model? [link]
