Product Description

2048. Quaid est hanté chaque nuit par un rêve qui l'entraîne sur Mars à la rencontre de la belle Melina. Contre l'avis de son épouse Lori, il s'adresse aux laboratoires Recall qui se targuent de matérialiser son rêve grâce à un puissant hallucinogène, de lui offrir un voyage aventureux... par la seule pensée. Mais l'expérience a des conséquences inattendues. Au lieu de lui donner de nouveaux souvenirs, la drogue réveille une mémoire effacée de l'esprit de Quaid. En fait, il ne serait pas Quaid mais un dangereux terroriste en lutte contre le despote de Mars ; Lori ne serait pas sa femme mais un agent ennemi ; et la planète rouge serait au centre d'un terrifiant complot. Poursuivi sans relâche par des tueurs impitoyables, Quaid s'envole pour Mars, où l'attendent d'autres souvenirs, d'autres dangers... et Melina, la femme de ses rêves. Où l'attend aussi une incroyable révélation sur sa véritable identité...

THIS MIND-BENDING EDITION IS THE BEST VERSION TO GET OF THIS CLASSIC SCI-FI ACTION THRILLER

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 20, 2014

Verified Purchase

TOTAL RECALL
one of the best Action thrillers ever made & of course it would be
you have Brilliant script written by both Ronald shusett & the late Dan O' Bannon who passed away some years ago
and you also have Director Paul verhoeven & Great Actor Arnold schwarzenegger for the film
aswell as Great Actor Michael ironside, Ronny cox and Sharon stone when she was in her prime
plus don't forget special make up effects artist Rob Bottin and his team
which i still think his special effects done in the film still Hold up today, better than CGI effects
it's the Cream of the crop in this film
better than the stupid remake with Colin Farrell, but it is matter of opinion
your either loyal to this Schwarzenegger version or you like the remake better, or you like both versions

TOTAL RECALL has been released on blu-ray twice now plus the special edition dvd release from 2001
this Mind-bending release is the 3rd and latest release of the film on blu-ray
scrap the previous blu-ray releases
and get this new Mind-Bending edition which has a new High definition transfer in 1:85:1 widescreen
supervised by Director Paul verhoeven so it says on the back cover
and i tell you what this new blu-ray transfer looks fantastic, an excellent clear pictured transfer, not much Grain at all
better than the old dvd release of course
plus a new 5.1 Master audio mix has been added to
i think maybe 6.1 or 7.1 mix should have been added aswell, the sound quality would be incredible
but there's only a 5.1 master audio mix
and that's not all,

there's a new special feature on this blu-ray a long with the old extras of course
every single special feature from the old special edition DVD is on this blu-ray
IMAGINING TOTAL RECALL Documentary,
MODEL & SKELETONS featurette which is about the special effects of Total recall
the old TV promo featurette only goes for about 8mins which was filmed during the making of the film in 1989-1990
a restoration comparison where the VHS or DVD print of the film is compared with this new blu-ray transfer of the film
which may be interesting to some fans i guess
and the old DVD commentary by Paul verhoeven & Arnold schwarzenegger is on this blu-ray aswell
there's also the Trailer & Photo Gallery aswell
the extras are not in High definition, more like Dolby digital surround sound
except for a brand new 1hour length interview with Paul verhoeven filmed just for this new blu-ray
which is in HD ofcourse
very very interesting interview to, Paul speaks in Great indepth detail about TOTAL RECALL
some things he talks about that he didn't mention in the 2001 Documentary for the special edition DVD of the film

you get the film & the old & new special features on 1 blu-ray Disc, incredible.
scrap the old blu-ray releases & the old special edition DVD
definitely time to upgrade and get this Mind bending edition of this classic sci-fi action thriller
which is now 24years old now can you believe it it's been that long since the film was released to theaters
5 stars i gave it worth the cash for sure

A man finds out his whole life is a lie when he goes to Mars

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 29, 2020

Verified Purchase

Mars is the site of strategic mining for Earth. There is a revolt going on there however which threatens the enterprise. Thrown into the middle of things is Doug (Arnold Schwarzenegger) a working class construction worker. Doug has constant dreams about going to Mars so he tries a new system called Total Recall that implants thoughts into people’s minds including a trip to the red planet. He chooses a package that would make him a secret agent. The problems start when he claims he’s a secret agent even before the process begins. He finds out his whole life was a lie.

Total Recall was a blast when it came out and is still great fun today. It had some of the best special effects before CGI took over. There’s a great scene where Doug is using a mechanical woman’s body and it comes apart in segments. The story was just as good. Even after the first reveal that Doug’s life wasn’t what he thought it was their continued to be twists and turns. By this time writers also realized that Schwarzenegger was great with one liners so there are a bunch of those throughout the film. It even plays upon a common theme of the rich and powerful exploiting the people for their own gain. Overall this still stands as a great piece of sci-fi.

Strong Contender for the Best Science Fiction Film of All Time

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 29, 2019

Verified Purchase

A perfect science fiction film, with as much depth and thought-provoking intellectual intrigue as carnal brutality and primal sex appeal. The special effects and shots are so well-done; they really make everything in the film look and feel like a lived-in, real place.

As far as science fiction plotlines go, this one has them all. From terraforming and human colonization of alien worlds to mutant psychics and ancient alien reactors to political struggles and rebellions against totalitarian regimes to a future where implanted memories of false vacations are as commonplace as rhinoplasty and air itself is sold by monopolists. There are so many science fiction concepts to explore and appreciate here, and the convincing prosthetics, intricate models, and cutting edge (for 1990) special effects all work to brilliantly communicate them on screen. All of the characters are multi-faceted, multi-dimensional individuals with differing perspectives and desires, and all the actors play their parts brilliantly. The action and gore is immensely satisfying, with some of the scenes featuring Mortal Kombat Fatality-levels of violence. There are some very memorable one-liners here too. Between Sharron Stone and The Last Resort, the movie has sufficient sex appeal to complement the action and science fiction.

But the greatest strength of the film comes from the lingering doubt held by both the protagonist and the viewer as to whether what appears on screen is in fact real. The movie is perfectly paced so that just as Schwarzenaggar's character is about to confront this possibility, the question has already been slowly rising in the back of the viewer's mind. Too much evidence lines up for the false explanation of events to be purely coincidental...but does that make it true? Who is the real Hauser: the sinister, conniving corporate agent; the humble construction worker on Earth who dreams of a life greater than his own; or the defected agent-turned-rebel hero, destined to liberate Mars? Which persona was invented, and which reality was the dream?

... cannot at all fault the film which still looks fantastic over 20 years on & is a great action ...

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on March 23, 2017

Verified Purchase

This is a difficult one as I have somehow managed to buy two copies of Total Recall (The Arnie version) and while I cannot at all fault the film which still looks fantastic over 20 years on & is a great action film from director Paul Verhoven. With a huge conundrum at its core. Is it all a dream that he requires recall or is his adventure to mars all real?. It's the dvds that are the problem for me. Here I have two copies, one a special edition blu ray with commentary from Schwarzenegger & Verhoven Where they explane the ins & outs of the movie together & provides some interesting insight to the film it also has other features that included. The other blu ray is Just the film nothing else on it & I am a special edition or to be more honest (Commentary fan) I therefore love the special edition & probably will not bother with the sparce edition at all. I don't know how this mix up happened as both pics on the Amazon site have the same (special edition) box featured yet the sparce edition has a slightly different box it features just Arnie's face in blue shade, with no red triagle of flame or mars on it. I dunno who I bought which dvd from either, only that the special edition came first. Oh well never mind. great film that feel younger than it is. it also blows the modern Colin Farrell remake completely out of the water & on it's head.

Recalling a dream or reality...he's determined to find out

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on January 22, 2016

Verified Purchase

Arnold Schwarzenegger is Douglas Quaid, a lowly construction worker who's nightly dreams are filled of Mars and a mysterious woman, much to his wife's annoyance. After seeing an advert on his journey to work for fake memories of outer space trips by ReKall Inc he decide to embrace his fragmented dreams with a full memory. However when the implant goes wrong a darker secret from Quaid's mind is released causing a chain reaction of events that leaves Quaid questioning what are dreams and reality...

Bought to replace the early 2000's bluray release which unfortunately had a hit and miss playback history on PS3 systems. This new edition is a worthy reason to upgrade, crystal clear picture and audio range, good colouring which can be noticed most in the Mars scenes compared to the previous releases. Not many new features from the older release but contains a few.

I hope this review helped you. If so, I would appreciate it if you clicked on the Yes button for a helpful review. If you have any questions, please ask. I am pretty responsive to comments

Still great

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on March 4, 2020

Verified Purchase

Just watched Total Recall (Blu ray) again after many years. principally because of the marvellous film soundtrack would you believe. Thanks to Jerry Goldsmith. The film has dated a little - but it still packs a punch, with Arnie doing what he does best, along with classic one liners, fast chase sequences and lots of violence. The body count sure is high which is very different on how we perceive action movies today. Way back in 1990 it all seemed okay. I still find the plot a little muddled, and difficult to follow, (which is which when Arnie's dreaming?) but hey, it's a great story and one which you can watch more than once. As for the blu ray release, it's a very pure picture, although a little grainy in parts, soundtrack is immense and powerful, especially in the 5:1 setting on the amplifier. Overall a fine release.

Transfer is still a little "odd".

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on October 8, 2016

Verified Purchase

The movie itself is great, no discussion here.
But I am still not fully convinced by the new bluray transfer. It is better looking than the first release, so it is a good idea to update (it is cheap anyway). While there was a lot of bloat around the new transfer ("approved by director"), I found it absolutely impossible to find any real information about the work that was performed. The "restoration" example they show in the supplements is meaningless, as any negative scan needs heavy grading anyway to produce a useable end result.
Fact is: the movie looks different than any other film I know from (approx.) 1990. Colors, contrast, grain - it just does not look like properly recorded and processed negative cinema film from this time. It almost seems like they either initially messed with the exposure and/or processing of the material (intentionally or by accident), or the film degraded heavily afterwards (which would be strange for "modern" film from 1990).

Nevertheless, the 2012 remaster is very watchable and most likely as good as it will ever get. It is just annoying that this visually stunning movie will never look "absolutely great" because of unknown reasons.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on May 26, 2008

If The Terminator was Arnold Schwarzenegger's introduction to fame, then Total Recall cemented his position into folklore. Looesly based on a short story by Philip K. Dick, the movie follows construction worker Douglas Quaid (A.S) as he gambles on a new commercial technology to take him on a trip to Mars - all without ever leaving his seat...

What seat might that be? One which comes part of a rather snazzy looking contraption at 'Recall', a company that specialises in making the customer's dreams come to life within their subconscious. Based on particular categories, they pick their destination, situation and a variety of other add-on packages to form a complete holiday. Of course, with the grandness of this project is just open to failure, and that's exactly what happens when Quaid gets stuck in recessed memories during the introduction process. Several levels of irony exist however, and this leaves the audience questioning whether Quaid's mind really is messed up, or if all the events that follow are part of his Recall package.

Suffice to say, this is a particularly clever movie and boasts more than just the typically 80's cliches that one might expect. The special effects are still very impressive today, even if the processes of their creation are somewhat lacking in speciality by todays standards.

As for this new Blu-ray (which replaces a spectacularly average release from a few years ago), you're going to see miles more detail than on any format or product from before. This is quite simply one of the best restorations I've yet to see for an 1980's film, and that's most likely down to the fact that as little work that was needed was actually done carefully. One of the most important aspects for this new transfer is that it actually 'looks' filmic with its natural grain and colours, and these are things that don't crop up too often even with the most popular movies released.

The special features are decent, including both new and old footage. I can't say that I'm a big fan of this whole 'Triple/Double Play' trend that Disney have started, since I purchase a movie on a particular format because that is the primary format I watch movies on... I can partly understand the Digital Download code as some customers may want to watch movies from their iPad/tablet whilst travelling, but let's be honest, the DVD is worthless. They can be picked up for the price of a Freddo these days, and that is probably why studios are chucking them into Blu-ray products in order to create more 'value'.
