Film Description
Doug Quaid (Arnold Schwarzenegger), a happily married construction worker living in the year 2084, is haunted by a recurrent dream in which he is living with a woman on Mars. Rekall Incorporated offer him the chance to live out his dream through a microchip which implants any memories their client desires into their brain. But something goes wrong during the installation of Quaid's memories of a trip to Mars and soon he lands up on the planet for real, unsure of his true identity and pursued by a gang out for his blood. He teams up with a group of resistance fighters to uncover a mystery which leads to the highest echelons of the planet's government.

This is a very welcome issue indeed. The previous DVD incarnations of Paul Verhoeven's intelligent but highly exciting version of a tale by the ultimate cult SF writer Philip K. Dick were distinctly below par: non-anamorphic, zero extras. All that is remedied here, with a deluxe two-disc set supplying the ultimate audiovisual treat (along with copious extras). If you're convinced that an Arnold Schwarzenegger movie can't deal with ideas along with the thickear stuff, give this one a try. In line with Dick's original, Schwarzenegger's blue-collar hero is obliged to think himself out of dangerous situations just as often as he uses his fists. And as a vision of a disturbing future society, the film shows quite as much imagination as the director did in the equally impressive Robocop. < less
