None of these are movies that the studio was shunting to the back end of summer, and the lowest opener was $40M.

(I agree about Farrell, and think that the movie looks pretty generic. Replacement Bourne In The Future.  I think moving away from Mars was the right idea because the original is a classic and a carbon copy will not work - but there is no hook to replace it.)

'Total Recall' debut trailer logs 10.8 million views in 48 hours. prahainsider Apr 05, 10:05

Oh my that fight scene with the group of gunmen is so unrealistic it's like a video game from the 90s {nm} numbersix_99 Apr 01, 14:07

Yeah, the movie kind of looks weak. Such an unnecessary remake. {nm} HarryWarden Apr 01, 14:15

I know Beckinsale has nice teeth but does she ever close her mouth? {nm} DOW53 Apr 01, 14:23

Good lord. Just another pointless waste of everyone's time. {nm} goodvibe61 Apr 01, 14:33

tell me that this is an April fool joke... please... {nm} b4bad Apr 01, 15:02

Hadn't even looked at this yet but Colin Farrell? tradermark Apr 01, 15:23

Disagree. Doesn't look good but it will still do better than JC. {nm} DOW53 Apr 01, 15:36

Thats why they picked August because they know what a hit it will be. Oh yea if memory serves John Carter was tradermark Apr 01, 15:46

Huh? You said John Carter will look like an over performer compared to RECAL. Now you say RECAL will be a hit? DOW53 Apr 01, 16:21

It's called S-A-R-C-A-S-M {nm} tradermark Apr 01, 16:27

LOL. Sure, blame it on that if you want. {nm} DOW53 Apr 01, 16:36

Blame what on sarcasm? My opinion that Farrell can't act? that the movie will suck? {nm} tradermark Apr 01, 17:01

It is only going with Summer in the trailer so it is possible Sony could blink vs Bourne in that date matchup {nm} notfabio Apr 01, 20:52

Um... Weird. {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Apr 01, 15:35

I thought it looked interesting. Put me down as one who thinks that Wiseman does good action sequences. {nm} Paul2k Apr 01, 15:38

Don't mean to go against the masses, but +1 {nm} PVL Admin Apr 01, 17:18

i sorta liked it, and want to see the film. islander Apr 01, 15:40

Loved the orig. No desire yet to see this. {nm} Dales Apr 01, 16:15

I always thought this was ripe for a more cerebral take robb1138 Apr 01, 18:27

It's okay+. I'm optimistic. {nm} second gary Apr 01, 19:58
