Movies: Total Recall
3 August 2012 23:59Got a little behind on my movie reviews - so lets start up again :)
Total Recall
I enjoyed it - quite a bit.
The good: A good action flick, some pretty snazzy cgi, great distopic society and the best car chase I've seen in quite a while.
The bad: The original Arnold version had a deeper plot, fuzzy science (which I ignored, it's an action flick!), bladerunner rain (in that, hey, it's the future it's hell, it always rains in the slums!)
Let me just say - the art director/cgi lead - I love you. There is some really cool tech/future society/distopic living conditions. All the cgi/buildings/backgrounds was just amazing - all the stuff, the cool ideas, some darn cool tech, some wild elevators & freeways, the computer effects people were doing - awesome!
Worth seeing: Yes. Darn good action flick. I want to see it again for all the tech stuff/details.
( I talk more in depth about plot type spoilers! )
