I enjoyed the movie for what it was, a high-octane action movie. The world created by this movie looked lived in and was rich in detail. The actors were all very good, even though some were under utilized. As far as comparisons to the original movie, this movie had better effects, better acting and some improvements to the story. I enjoyed the multiple references to the original and would see this movie again. I enjoyed this movie. I would have liked to see more cameos from the original movie for fans of the original. Not having read the source story, I only know what I've heard of the original story. I was hoping for more dramatic changes from the original movie, possibly back to the original story. I really want to read the original story to see which really is better, the story or both movies. It was a decent remake and I want to see more of the world. There's enough here for a sequel or spin-off in this same universe to be made. And yes, I wish I did have three hands!

One of the most intense, super high tech movies I've ever seen! Much better than I expected! Highly recommend if only for all the futuristic technology!

Once seeing the movie, we realized that we could have waited until it came out on DVD. I was falling asleep during the movie..... Needless to say it was pretty much like the original Total Recall... Wait until the DVD you will happy you didn't spend the money @ the theater.
