He should be so lucky."Soulless, bombastic and numbingly repetitive, Total Recall is easy to forget within a few hours of watching," writes USA Today's Claudia Puig.

Cohaagen: You're nothing! You're nobody! You're a stupid dream! Well, all dreams come to an end. Quaid: And you expect me to believe you? Cohaagen: Who gives a shit what you believe?! In 30 seconds you'll be dead, and I'll blow this place up and be home in time for Corn Flakes! I didn't want it to end this way, I wanted Hauser back, but no, you had to be Quaid! Quaid: I am Quaid. That's why the aliens never turned it on.

Cohaagen: Impossible! Once the reaction starts, it'll spread to all the terbinium in the planet. Vilos Cohaagen: Don't touch that! Get away! Get back! Douglas Quaid: What are you afraid of? Turn it on. Kuato: Start the ee Mars- Richter: Mr Cohaagen would like to talk to you. Benny: Forget it, man, his fortune-telling days are over. After all, we're married! Douglas Quaid: Consider that a divorce! Melina: That was your wife? What a bitch! you wouldn't hurt me, would you, sweetheart? Sweetheart, be reasonable. You even have fantasies about alien civilizations as you requested but in the end, back on Earth, you'll be lobotomized! So get a grip on yourself, Doug, and put down that gun! One minute, you'll be the savior of the rebel cause next thing you know, you'll be Cohaagen's bosom buddy. Edgemar: The walls of reality will come crashing down. In your mind, I'll be dead, and with no one to guide you out, you'll be stuck in permanent psychosis. The consequences to you will be devastating. Edgemar: It won't make the slightest difference to me Doug. Douglas Quaid: All right, let's say you're telling the truth and this is all a dream, then I could pull this trigger and it won't matter. Mutant Man: Do you want to know your future? Quaid: What about my past? Benny: Hey! Mutant Woman: Read your mind, your palm, your aura? Mutant Little Girl: I bet I can tell your birthday.You are a Taurus? Quaid: How did you guess? Richter: But, I thought - Cohaagen: Who told you to THINK? I don't give you enough information to THINK! You do as you're told, THAT'S WHAT YOU DO!

And you're FUCKING MAKING IT HAPPEN! First, you tried to kill Quaid and then you let him get away. Anything! In fact, the only thing I worry about is that, one day, if the rebels win, it all might end. As long as the terbinium keeps flowing, I can do anything I want. Cohaagen: Because I've got the greatest job in the solar system. You wanted to see me, sir? Vilos Cohaagen: Richter, do you know why I'm such a happy person? Richter: No, sir. her! Everett: Arrest that woman! Douglas Quaid: Catch! Fat Lady: Get ready for a surprise! That's Quaid! Captain Everett: What? Richter: The woman. Customs Agent: Excuse me? Fat Lady: Two weeks.two weeks. Customs Agent: Have you brought any fruits or vegetables onto the planet? Fat Lady: Two weeks. Ha ha ha, you think this is the real Quaid? It is! ĭialogue Customs Agent: How long do you plan to spend on Mars, M'aam? Fat Lady: Two weeks.
