Total Recall [1990]
Directed by: Paul Verhoeven
What if everything you knew about your identity was wrong? The job you punch into day in and out. The home you have where you go to after going to work. Your routine is set in a pattern. That is, until a fluke happens to remind you this isn't what it seems. The world as you know/knew it is not the world it seems to be. Everything around you is like a piece of the puzzle to answer your deepest questions. Who are you? What is going on? To solve the mystery tune in to find out.
What a trip! Each time I felt I was closer to solving the mystery I was still a few steps behind. The cinematography is good. I love the setting. Some of the dialogue comes off as dated but it's still enjoyable. I liked the action but mostly the effects were great! Some gore can be expected but also a lot of random moments sprinkled throughout the film. Glad I finally watched this one!
9/10
