Total Recall Free movie streaming In Paul Verhoeven's wild sci-fi action movie Total Recall, Arnold Schwarzenegger plays a 21st-century construction worker who discovers that his entire memory of the past derives from a memory chip implanted in his brain. Schwarzenegger learns that he's actually a secret agent who had become a threat to the government, so those in power planted the chip and invented a domestic lifestyle for him. Once he has realized his true identity, he travels to Mars to piece together the rest of his identity, as well as to find the man responsible for his implanted memory. Verhoeven has created a fast, furious action film with Total Recall, filled with impressive stunts and (literally) eye-popping visuals. Though the film bears only a passing resemblance to the Philip K. Dick short story it was based on ("We Can Remember It For You Wholesale"), the movie is an entertaining, if very violent, ride. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi Release Date Total Recall Jun 1, 1990 Wide | |

Review For Total Recall |
It's not a masterpiece, but it is a fast-moving thriller, one worth revisiting (and, evidently, remaking). Bill Goodykoontz-Arizona Republic
Total Recall is too much -- but it's too much of a good thing. Owen Gleiberman-Entertainment Weekly
The fierce and unrelenting pace, accompanied by a tongue-in-cheek strain of humor in the roughhouse screenplay, keeps the film moving like a juggernaut. -Variety
A worthy entry in the dystopian cycle launched by Blade Runner, this seems less derivative than most of its predecessors yet equally accomplished in its straight-ahead storytelling, with plenty of provocative satiric undertones and scenic details. Jonathan Rosenbaum-Chicago Reader
Melding the ever-more-workable Schwarzenegger mystique with a better-than-average science-fiction premise, the director Paul Verhoeven has come up with a vigorous, superviolent interplanetary thriller that packs in wallops with metronomic regularity. Janet Maslin-New York Times
A gratuitous explosion of vainglory and guts, the movie is all firecrackers and giblets and broken glass. The overall effect is like wading through hospital waste. Rita Kempley-Washington Post
Gives its viewers something to chew on while never neglecting a gruesomely satisfying pay-off. Steve Wright-SciFiNow
Paul Verhoeven's sci-fi classic Total Recall holds up very well, even against some of today's sci-fi standards. Jeremy Lebens-We Got This Covered
A wickedly violent, action-packed old school piece of warped, twist-filled sci-fi and Schwarzenegger cheese. You'll wish you had three hands to hold this one. R. L. Shaffer-IGN DVD
Minor Verhoeven, well-above-average Schwarzenegger, and as well-made as any action movie from around the turn of the 1990s you could name. Tim Brayton-Antagony & Ecstasy
Total Recall's caricaturing of Schwarzenegger, its flip ribbing at his stocks of action-hero cache, signal the deep, almost atomic level at which its satire functions. John Semley-Slant Magazine
When the leader of the rebels turns out to be Baby Herman from Who Framed Roger Rabbit, it's clear that the satirical bull's-eyes Verhoeven nailed in RoboCop have here been turned into a more benign state of rib-nudging. Matt Brunson-Creative Loafing
Crass, loud, and proud, Total Recall gets a not-very-special special edition (more like an SE DVD where the feature has been remastered in 1080p), but a worthwhile buy for fans, with terrific grain and an even better commentary track. Jaime N. Christley-Slant Magazine
Verhoeven's version of Philip Dick's story is vigorous, exciting, and inventive sci-fi thriller, combining pulp savviness, ultra-graphic violence, and Oscar-winning special effects. Emanuel Levy-EmanuelLevy.Com
A symphony of breaking glass, swearing and Uzi fire occasionally interrupted by car chases or flashes of tit, Total Recall seems to have been surgically targetted at a demographic of 14-year-old boys. Ian Berriman-SFX Magazine
It's a blockbuster from another era, when a big idea, rather than a pair of 3D goggles, gave the film its extra dimension. Jason Solomons-Observer [UK]
It's still a guilty pleasure - though the guilt quotient is a bit higher - and that's down to the still-extraordinary presence of the massively gym-built Arnold... Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]
Still a ripsnorting yarn with lashings of sex and violence that hasn't aged a day. David Jenkins-Little White Lies
Brilliant but disturbing and violent Schwarzenegger sci-fi. Jeffrey M. Anderson-Common Sense Media
An absolutely superb sci-fi film and a true modern cornerstone of the genre not seen since the deeper though less entertaining Blade Runner nearly ten years previous. Garth Franklin-Dark Horizons
Not only one of the best films of 1990, it's one of Arnold's finest cinematic accomplishments -- a fireball of a film...still disembowels like a champion. Brian Orndorf-BrianOrndorf.com
Total Recall is fine entertainment, complete with breathtaking action sequences and special effects that impress even in these computer-generated times. Richard Luck-Film4
Ugly, stupid, loud, offensive, and pointlessly violent. -TV Guide's Movie Guide
