in terms of plot, it is Arnold's best film, despite Terminator and the first Predator!

The transfer is fantastic! It was so fun to watch this film again after so many years. And in gorgeous 4K the special features are great too!

Compared to previous editions of Total Recall that I have watched on DVD and blu-ray, I prefer this 2015 edition from Lions Gate because, 1) the film looks and sounds better, 2) includes informative and entertaining bonus documentaries, and 3) has an attractive menu setup. I have not watched the 2012 "Mindbending" edition of Total Recall but I have read that the 2015 edition is the same remaster. Whatever the case, I am satisfied with my purchase of the 2015 blu-ray edition and recommend it to all fans of "Total Recall". BTW: the only way I could activate English subtitles was via the menu. Pressing the subtitles button on my remote would not work.

Good picture and sound

Let's face it. Arnold will never win an Oscar. In fact, I'm surprised he doesn't get a Razzie for every year he acted. Same here in Total Recall. Regardless, while now dated this is just a cool movie.

👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽 Best of the CLASSIC‼️

Great family movie 🎬, highly recommend this movie for family, recommend this to everyone!

One of scharzenneger's best movies.By the way if you haven't seen the remake with Colin Farrell check it out it's actually pretty good on its own too.I mean don't get me wrong the remake is no classic like the schwarzenneger version and the remake isn't very special like it either.Its a bit bland and generic a bit as an action movie.But because its built around the same amazing fascinating story it works.It's also action pack and has great special effects.K now that i am done selling the remake lol.No but seriously i'm not usually big on remakes but i did enjoy that version too.K now back to the one and only Total Recall.The 1990 version directed by Paul Verhoven.You see this is one of the things that makes this version so special.It has the Verhoven touch.If you seen Robocop directed by him (and who hasnt?) then you know what style this version of Total Recall will have.Total Recall is full of gratuitous graphic over the top violence.This is probably the type of movie that wouldnt be made today in our politically correct world.It also has that satyrical tone that robocop was famous for.Another thing that makes this movie special and a classic is the score by the late great composer Jerry Goldsmith wich is one of the best movie scores ever created for a movie.Every scene in the movie is elevated with this amazing perfect score that brings out so much to every scene.Its just hands down a brilliant score for such a hard core action movie.Another classic thing about the movie is all the one liners said by Arnold or others throughout the movie.One thing that the remake doesnt do compare to this version is having the movie actually take place on the red planet.In the remake you never see any sight of orange landscape.In this version there is lots of orange in the landscape wich is needed for a movie who takes place on mars.I remember in 1990 when i first saw the movie i didnt fall for it as much as most people right away.I remember liking the other schwarzenegger movies like predator and commando a lot more.I dont know what it was that didnt grab me right away about it but i must admit now it is one of his best and its a great sci fi action flick and a classic of the past.I had the vhs and the dvd years ago and now we get this 4k transfer with a bluray combo.I can't comment on the 4k cause i dont have a player to watch it.I bought this especially for the remastered bluray.Yes the bluray on this is not an old transfer.Its a brand new bluray that was struck from the new restoration made for the 4k disc.And yes it looks fantastic.I am happy to say that its a great transfer.Just like what you want a transfer for an old action movie from the 90's to look like on bluray.Just like the new bluray transfers they made for the old star trek movies the film grain is retain and no DNR is used this time.I heard some people complain about the total recall transfer but for me it looks amazing and perfect the first time i viewed it.I love it when the grain structure is retained and pleasant looking and here thats how it is.Like the star trek movies transfer.The audio is good too.Its probably not as good as modern movies but i think the remastered audio probably sounds better a bit than before.The extras are good and it think you get most of the ones that were made.So if you like total recall get this 4k combo now.

MINHA FILHA CHAMA M-E-L-I-N-A. ! ! !

I recently got a multi-region DVD player for the first time because there's some box sets that I can only get from Region 1, and I needed to get a cheap DVD to test if it worked.I do already like Total Recall and I don't currently have this in my collection anyway. It's a good DVD, plays well and I'm happy with the order which arrived on time.

Muy buena calidad de imagen para una obra maestra de Paul Verhoeven. La película lleva audio y subtítulos en español latino, concretamente de México, y en algunos momentos no son muy neutros, especialmente con los diálogos llenos de insultos. Por lo demás, buena edición.

Un clásico de la ciencia ficción que nunca pasará de moda. Pensé no habría mucha diferencia entre el bluray anterior y la versión 4K, pero el trabajo de remasterizado es fenomenal, todo se siente más natural con el soberbio HDR de este título, obvio algunas escenas se ven algo "sobrepuestas" por la tecnología de la época, pero son detalles que pasan a segundo termino al contemplar la obra en general. Contiene 3 discos: El disco 4K es la película, incluye doblaje al español latino y subtítulos al español para los que como yo, preferimos verla en su idioma original. También este disco 4K contiene las características especiales las cuales no incluyen subtítulos ni en inglés ni en español. El disco 2 es el bluray de la película y al igual que el 4K, viene en ingles y español con subtítulos. El disco 3 es un bluray de extras y tampoco incluye subtítulos.
