Total Recall
1990, R, 113 min. Directed by Paul Verhoeven. Starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Rachel Ticotin, Sharon Stone, Ronny Cox, Michael Ironside.
REVIEWED By Marjorie Baumgarten, Wed., July 5, 2000
This futuristic science fiction is based on a Philip K. Dick short story, and features award-winning special effects. It should provide the perfect warm-up to Verhoeven’s Hollow Man, due later this summer, and wash out the taste of Verhoeven’s recent misfires, Showgirls and Starship Troopers.
