Paul Verhoeven has always managed to make films I either love or utterly detest. This is the latter. Ugly, cheap production design, Gerry Anderson standard effects, ugly gratuitous violence and a plot that makes no logical sense whatsoever. Terrible.

Douglas Quaid (Schwarzenegger) travels to Mars to discover his real identity. Lori (Stone) is Richter's (Michael Ironside) wife who is an agent sent by Cohaagen to monitor Quaid. A viually impressive sci-fi satire with wonderful settings/costumes for its time. One wil notice likeable character from the protagonists and antagonists alike. It boasts of brutal action adn an innovative screenplay. Total Recall almost has all the elements of an entertaining action sci-fi flick despite some lackluster acting and a few coy moments.
