Everything worked out all-too-neatly for him afterward: the sudden adaptability to great feats of action, for instance or crooked cab-driver Benny conveniently showing up at just the right times (even after the reveal of his working for lead villain Cohaagen). Picture credit to Ĭonsider that the whole adventure picked up for Quaid almost immediately at Rekall. An exact match to the Rekall model? Come on the odds are not that high!Īmong the other Rekall trip “alien artifacts” options include the terraforming engine almost exactly as seen in the Pyramid Mine when Quaid finally gets there shoot, even the lab assistant who helps put together the Rekall vacation muses over a trip scenario when he says “That’s a new one blue sky on Mars!” The movie ends with a blue sky and atmosphere on Mars! Again… the odds!?ĭouglas Quaid (Arnold Schwarzenegger) as he is about to receive his vacation memory implant at Rekall. Among the visuals is the very clear picture of a beautiful woman Quaid selects from personal preference who later turns out to be Melina (Rachel Ticotin), member of the Mars rebellion and girlfriend of Quaid’s “real identity” Hauser. Heck with that there is plenty of sufficient evidence that it is still a dream.Īre the Rekall model (right) and character Melina somehow the same person? Or is Melina (Rachel Ticotin) just a product of Quaid’s dream? Picture credit to Īt Rekall, before they put Quaid to sleep for memory implant, they go over specific options of visuals and details which will be part of the experience Quaid remembers. Edgemar (Roy Brocksmith) claims it is all a dream but Quaid catches him sweating in nervous fear and decides the adventure really is happening. I grant there’s evidence to suggest it could have been real such as when Dr. His wish is granted when he follows an advertisement and visits the Rekall establishment which trades in implanted vacation memories and sells Quaid an experience as a secret agent who essentially travels to Mars and saves the day after battling bad guys and meeting an alluring woman. In Total Recall, Douglas Quaid (Schwarzenegger) is a mild-mannered construction worker who dreams of more in life and often this dream involves the planet Mars. Total Recall (1990), an incredible sci-fi action adventure starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, asks viewers one important question: did the events of this movie really take place, or was it all a dream? After careful examination, I say the majority of the movie was a dream.
