Monday Movie Review

Total Recall
I never actually saw the original version of this, so I can't compare I tell you which was better. But since the previews gave the main plot away, I still came in knowing what to expect. I'm guessing because it was a remake they didn't worry about spoilers in the previews, but I think I would have enjoyed it more if parts of the movie were a bigger shock.

As for my biggest complaint, it's actually how it felt visually. The movie was really dark, as in light not necessarily the theme, which just made me tired. Plus there were a lot of flashing lights which hurt my eyes. I get that they were trying to make it futuristic, but I do think you still need to make it watchable.

I did enjoy parts of this movie, and while I wouldn't tell you to rush out to the theater to see it, it would be a great movie to watched cuddled up on the couch.
