Total Recall

Description

Total Recall of 2012 is the good news for those who read the "We Can Remember It for You Wholesale", the book written by the drug addicted writer Philip K. Dick and liked it. Why? Because it's much more close to the original than the same name movie released in 1990 which remake the new Total Recall is supposed to be. That is way it's more correct to call this Recall the new version, not the remake: we will not see any flights to Mars here. But more action packed scenes are guaranteed, thanks to the Len Wiseman who previously directed the Underworld trilogy and Live Free or Die Hard. The story begins in New Asia, the city in fascist far future where two superstates fights to take control over the Earth: Euroamerica and New Shanghai. The average worker Douglas Quaida (Colin Farrell) awakes in his bed and realizes that he is a spy. But which side he serves? He has no idea. The only link to recall his memory is the young prostitute Melina played by Jessica Biel (New Year's Eve, Playing the Field, The Tall Man). But it seems like she is not just "fille de joie". Very soon it becomes clear that she is a major part of rebel union teamed to change the political system in Euroamerica and aimed to destroy the main antagonist Vilos Cohaagen (Bryan Cranston) the President of the corrupted government of Euroamerica.

Sixty years have passed since the first attack of aliens. For a long time our planet were nothing more but place of disastrous war between earthlings and extraterrestrial form of live named Scavs. We've won the war, but Earth was totally devastated turned into hostile yet dangerous desert. All the achievements of our civilization were ruined and recently prosperous megacities now forming whimsical landscapes with rivers running down the wide ex-avenues and waterfalls rushing down from the skyscrapers. In that hostile environment only artificial drones are alive to protect the Earth from possible aliens' comebacks. Drones and a couple dozens of people maintaining them are only the Earth population now, while the mission aimed to extract all the valuable resources left is in progress. Jack Harper is one of the "lucky ones" that has been left on Earth to secure the mission. His duty to repair drones and he is doing that job for many years. His only hobby is to read "old books" that has been written before the alien invasion. Jack's duty was about to be completed when he witnesses a starship crash and hurries to rescue possible survivors. He manages to save the life of beautiful woman, Julia, who seems to be familiar with him. However Jack doesn't know her and rests assured the he never met her. This event turns the known world of Jack Harper inside out. It seems like he was wrong about his purpose on the Earth. Soon after he meets the real population of the planet, a Resistance, and its leader Malcolm Beech. Oblivion was filmed by Universal Studios after the Radical Comics graphic novel of the same name. The movie stars Tom Cruise (Mission Imposible franchise, Van Helsing, All You Need Is Kill) as Jack Harper and Olga Kurylenko (La terre outragée, James Bond: Quantum of Solace, Max Payne) as Julia, while resistance leader is portrayed by Morgan Freeman (Now You See Me, Olympus Has Fallen, The Dark Knight Rises).
