Roger Ebert
Total Recall is well-crafted, high energy sci-fi. Like all stories inspired by Philip K. Dick, it deals with intriguing ideas.

Common Sense Media
Parents need to know that Total Recall is a remake of Arnold Schwarzenegger's popular 1990 sci-fi movie; both are based on a short story by cult author Philip K. Dick.

The Guardian
It's a bit of a flavourless CGI-fest, without the character and comedy of the Arnie version, and it never really gets to grips with the idea of 'reality' as a slippery, malleable concept.

IMDb
Whether one finds this a good movie or not depends on whether one can accept the modern trends of science fiction film making.

Rotten Tomatoes
Done right, Total Recall should be a glorious mash-up of genres; The Truman Show-meets-Blade Runner. As it is, this is sci-fi without ideas, and a thriller completely bereft of thrills.

IMDb
the story was weak and pointless, at least the first one gave reasons WHY the main character had been erased
