Total Recall (2012)

Its all in your head; or is it?

Douglas Quaid is a normal working stiff.  He lives on an oppressive future version of Earth where the majority of the world has been wiped out.  When he seeks an escape from his humdrum life, he infds out that there is more to himself than he could have ever imagined.  Total Recall is a big budget action film with a sci-fi backdrop.  It is not the greatest film ever made, but is a good entry into the 'sci-fi/ action' genre.  Having said all that, this film is still way better than the 1990 Schwartzeneggar version. 

Total Recall gets a respectable 3 out of 5 Poblanos!
