"Are we going to be getting confused about the realities??" 😆😆😆

Michael Ironside as the villain Richter, who you saw in Starship Troopers as Ratchet. The joke is: this is where he lost the limb that was missing in Starship Troopers…😜

Best line - "See you at the party, Richter!"

If you stay until the very end of the movie, the screen goes white instead of black. It's been suggested that everything he experienced after going to Total Recall was in fact, a dream.

One of the best Sci-fi Action movies ever made! Before Paul Verhoeven directed the film, David Cronenberg, Director of Body Horror films like Scanners The Fly and Videodrome was hired in 1984 by Dino De Laurentiis to direct the project for a 1985 release date. Cronenberg originally wanted the film to be a psychological thriller rather than a Sci Fi Action Adventure film, but the screenwriters, Dan O'Bannon, Ronald Shusett and Gary Goldman, objected this idea as Shusett wanted to do "RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK GOES TO MARS." Tensions got so nasty between Cronenberg and De Laurentiis, Cronenberg left the project and Laurentiis sold the script to Carolco the same company that made RAMBO, TERMINATOR 2, CLIFFHANGER and Cutthroat Island. The film won for Best Visual Effects at the 1991 Academy Awards as it was the only Sci Fi/Fantasy movie to be nominated.

The most AANNGGHH AAARRGGHH NYYAAHH Arnold movie ever

This Arnold movie is a pure Sci fi classic and masterpiece. Great reaction to this movie that takes me back to my childhood.

Conan, Running Man, Last Action Hero, Red Heat and Eraser are all good Arnold movies you could watch, too. And definetly also watch Robocop from Paul Verhoeven great sci-fi movie.

You've got to watch Conan. It was Arnold's 1st big breakout role and was 'epic' before that word became an overused internet cliche. Very good movie made even better by Basil Poledouris supplying one of the greatest film scores of all time.

"Doug, honey... you wouldn't hurt me, would you, sweetheart? Sweetheart, be reasonable. After all, we're married!" [BANG!] "Consider that a divorce!" I think the entire movie happened. There's a couple of scenes that occur where Quaid is nowhere in sight, how does he know they took place? Fun Fact: Coca-Cola is the only advertised soft drink on Earth; on Mars, we see ads only for Pepsi. Practical Over CGI Fact: This was one of the last major Hollywood blockbusters to make large-scale use of miniature effects as opposed to CGI. It was also one of the first major Hollywood blockbusters to use CGI (mainly for the scenes involving the X-ray scanner) and have it look good. Hot Stone Fact: Arnold Schwarzenegger was so impressed by how much dedication Sharon Stone had in training for her character role and was later inducted into the Stunt Woman Association as an honorary member. So proud of her physique, Sharon Stone posed nude for 'Playboy' magazine, showing off the buff body she developed in preparation for the movie. Sharon had pumped iron and learned Tae Kwon Do. Nice Quaid Fact: Arnold Schwarzenegger noticed that Michael Ironside was constantly on the phone between takes. When he broached the subject with Ironside, he was told that he was phoning his sister and that she was currently suffering from cancer. Arnold immediately brought Michael to his trailer and they had an hour-long, three-way conversation with Ironside's sister about what exercises she should do and what kinds of foods she should be eating. Ironside has never forgotten Schwarzenegger's kindness and neither has his sister.

Michael Ironside also was in the tv-series V and so was Mickey Jones who also is in Total Recall credited as "Burly Miner"

Best film ever!

Blue sky on Mars, that was the program implant

You probably know Micael Ironside,from Starship Troopers! Mr Radchack his teacher and LT

This movie is a trip lol

I just read an interview where Verhoven says either view is right, because he wanted to make it so that both possibilities could be true and consistent. So he says if you think it's a dream, you're right and he says if you think it's real, you're also right.

I mean...yeah, there are some premise and plot issues. However, this movie is so ridiculous and over the top that you just have to relax into it and enjoy it for what it is - a whole lot of fun! It also contains a message or two to get you thinking. That's what makes this movie a classic.

"That's a new one, blue skies on Mars." That's how the author of this short story, Phillip K. Dick, waiting the reader to feel. WAS IT REAL OR WAS IT A DREAM ? MISSION ACOPLISHED !!! Fun Fact: This was the last scI-fi movie made entirely with practical effects only, BEFORE CGI WAS USED FOR SPECIAL EFFECTS IN MOVIES ! Loved this reaction video Cami !! Keep It Going !!!

@39:56 While yes its basically the plot of the movie you are forgetting one thing. Rekall never ended up implanting the memory in his mind so it was actually real.

24:01 One of the best shots ever in film! LOL

When he is on the subway at the start the adverts are for virtual visiting Mars, once he goes in to it and the programme starts, he gets out the taxi and then on the subway all the adverts are for actually visiting Mars - but they only occur in the virtual world!

Saw this in the cinema and after 30 years of debating with friends, I am 100% convinced it's a dream and he is lobotomized in the end (the fade to white instead of the typical fade to black). There are a ton of clues throughout the film that hint this is a dream. I'll give 2 - 1) How did Cohangen know where he was staying to send the Dr. to his room? and 2) The Dr. says if he kills him "...the walls of reality will come crashing down..." As soon as Doug kills him, LITERALLY the walls of the room explode. There are loads more. Have fun on re-watches 🙂

You can't tell until the end whether it's a 'dream', after the last words, but it stands to reason that it was a dream after all, but there's no real resolution as to what it REALLY was.

Classic Arnold and 10x better than the remake

Jerry Goldsmith also wrote the scores for Logan's Run, three Star Trek films, and Poltergeist. The actor playing Cohaagen was a captain on Star Trek: The Next Generation. You may know him from Robocop. The voice of the Johnny Cab was done by the actor who played The Doctor on Star Trek: Voyager (and was in Innerspace). The Martian security chief actor was on Star Trek: The Next Generation & a recurring character on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.

Hi cami hope you are having an great and awesome day ❤

Hi Cami!😊 Great reactions to this 90s sci-fi adventure with Arnold!!!!🎬👏👏👏👏

Thanks for the video!! See you later!! Stay safe.😊

Arnold Schwarzenegger starred in Kindergarten Cop the same year as this, then followed up with Terminator 2. Sharon Stone and director Paul Verhoeven followed this up with Basic Instinct. This was loosely adapted from the short story "We Can Remember it For You Wholesale" by Philip K. Dick

I think the whole movie was a dream.

This is my favorite movie out of all of Arnolds works, as the story was just amazing, and gave off Alfred Hitchcock meets science fiction vibes. It probably wasn't his best movie, as True Lies and Predator I feel are more well made and consistent in regards to overall quality. But this was just a fun ride and I love the ins and outs of not knowing what's real and what's not throughout.

Loved your video! There are about twenty-odd things in this movie that suggest it is all in his head, but the movie never really answers it definitively. A few movie suggestions for future shows: Forbidden Planet 1956 (Favorite Movie) The Thing 1982 (Favorite Horror) Planet Of The Apes 1968 (Favorite Sci-Fi) The Changeling 1980 (Favorite Haunted House) Little Big Man 1970 (Favorite Western) Alien 1979 (Favorite Space Movie) The Terminator 1984 (Favorite Time-Travel) An American Werewolf In London 1981 (Favorite Monster) You have already reacted to my favorite Christmas movie - Die Hard 1988. If I think of others, I'll let you know! Great reactions! Best to you- ❤

You can hold either view because you can argue stuff like the girl appearing on the screen, how would they know her that she would show up on the screen at Rekall and then at the end Quaid is afraid it's all a dream and when they are kissing a white light appears. Back in the early '90s my roommate and I argued about it, whether it was real or a dream. I read somewhere that the director said Quaid was actually still strapped to the chair and the light at the end was him dying... who knows. If there's an official interview and he says what he thinks, that's what the real ending must be.

You think this was a wild ride in 2024? Imagine seeing this in the theater as a 13 year old boy in 1990! It might be a reason Gen-X doesn't trust anything. Arnold was a staple during my adolescence, so reacting to his whole filmography would be fun. Well, except maybe "Junior". I'd love to see Cami react to "Twins" the most!

38:22 "it's not a dream? Yay, I'm glad!" Well... Yes, this is the kind of movie that we could argue all day about whether it's a dream or not. That said, there are many hints throughout that it was a dream the whole time - the exact dream he paid for. Here's just 3: 1. Quaid had a large metal object in his forehead and walks through a metal detector every day that sees his bones but not this metal object. 2. Quaid pulls that object out of his nose with no damage. 3. In the Total Recall office, Quaid describes a woman and it is EXACTLY Melina (7:04). How did they have her in their databank when she's a secret agent on another planet? And many others. Edit: I wrote that before you came back and replayed the Total Recall conversations. You still cut away before he selects Melina, which I think might be the biggest clue that it's a dream.

When I first watched this I asked myself “would he be hearing the dialogue and seeing the actions of other people in the movie as we see it if he was dreaming and if so would that not tip him off that what he is experiencing is a dream, or is the audience supposed to accept that Quade only sees what he sees whether he’s dreaming or not?”

stay away from the "remake" ... it's a waste of film

Hi Cami, i'm subscribed, great reaction to one of Arnie's best movies :) It would suggest that it was a dream... Brilliant performance by our Arnie, I highly recommend his 1993 action flick Last Action Hero for you you react to - it's underrated and not reacted to much. + his remaining Terminator movies; 3 (2003) & Genysis (2015) And Paul Verhoven has done some great action movies, his best being Robocop (1987) please react to that soon, maybe over on Criminal Content (?)

To counter the ‘it’s all a dream/fake memory’ idea - he was already dreaming of the Mars girl BEFORE he went to Recall and the director made sure to have the camera stay on Sharon Stone after Arnie left the apartment and give a suspiciously sinister look - so I think the writers/directors wanted to leave you with something to think about. You can decide which way you want it - you can make an argument either way.

Definitely one of the best movies for Arnold sounds.

Okay Cami not a dream. Check the interviews and bts for more.

The film is still open ended and can go either way. The fade to white at the end (normally a fade to black) I believe is meant to imply that Hauser could still be strapped in the chair at Recall and accidentally had a shizoid embolism.

MS.GORGEOUS IN LOOKING FORWARD ♥️ FOR UR Next REACTION LOVE ❤️

theres a text on a screen at recall saying “blue skys over mars” suggesting the end of the scenario

We see a couple conversations Houser/Quaid isn't privy to, so I vote "real".

That's what I really love about this movie, it can be either or. You get to decide how it ends.

yeah, i dont know why so many people think this was anything but a hero fantasy he paid for

Yay. Cami's back! Happy belated New Year, Cami. Good to see ya. 21:45. lmao... Yeah, oh dang is right. That was pretty aggressive... Cami's just way too smart for these movies. :) What's my favorite Arnie movie? That's easy. Predator. It's in my top three favorite all-time, along with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990), and Forrest Gump.

Great movie

Enjoyed your reaction Cami. I still kinda think it was all a dream :)

i'm in the same boat as you.. i CHOOSE to believe that it all happened and wasn't a dream... partially because that's how i thought of it when i saw it as a child, so i'm super biased

Thanks Cami i enjoyed this reaction immensely or did i just dream it ? Hmmm .🤔 Joking aside i love this film it is one of my faves , a great mind bending sci fi thriller with Arnold at the peak of his strength and some of his best ARGGHHHHH NYAHHHH AIEEE moments !! LOL! I love the practical effects here among some of the best put on film . great reaction CAMI CHEERS .

Not only do they never let you know what's real but the short story it's based on doesn't help either because of it's incredibly weird ending that the movie writers obviously didn't want to deal with

WHAT IS BEST IN LIFE?

From the moment his Mars dream starts to the end, it's all a Rekall implant. The movie is called TOTAL Recall, afterall. The giveaway is Melina's picture at Rekall. How could they know what his dream woman looks like?

...and then Quaid woke up. See, just because the movie ends where it does, the question remains. As you rightly rewatched, the endgame of the movie is what the guy at Total Recall told him was going to happen. I like to think it was real, but I don't think you can be sure one way or the other.

Another good movie is eraser. Also great reaction

'They like to do that in movies'. Which is why it has become such tired, stale device. Very few movies have done this well, but now it's not even a plot device. It's a vanity for directors who want to think they're so clever when they're just lame. An example of how lame it can be is Ridley Scott spliced in a few seconds from Legends into Blade Runner because he thought it made him an artiste when all he did was just peepeed all over Ford's and Hauer's acting and their statement on slavery. Shutter Island uses this to illustrate how guilt makes us delude ourselves. First, that isn't what decompression does to a human. Second, movies and television have magic healing where all the scars, lumps, lesions, and bruises are healed at the end instead of the months of hospitalization and rehabilitation that happen in reality.

Arnie movie: TWINS

Cami, a red herring? like Mars? the Red planet?

The Running Man is a good Arnold movie

Total Recall is more proof that the 1990s is one of the greatest decades in film history. Titanic Terminator 2 Forrest Gump The Shawshank Redemption Pulp Fiction Schindlers List Braveheart Dances With Wolves The Silence of the Lambs Goodfellas True Lies Eyes Wide Shut Unforgiven Saving Private Ryan The Matrix Seven Jurassic Park Jerry Maguire Good Will Hunting LA Confidential Fargo As Good As It Gets Beauty and the Beast Fight Club American Beauty Tombstone The Matrix Notting Hill The Lion King The Cider House Rules The Green Mile Speed Die Hard With A Vengeance Little Women A Few Good Men Heat The Sixth Sense Pretty Woman Crimson Tide Dark City Sense & Sensibility The Hunt For Red October The English Patient Kindergarten Cop Mission Impossible Liar Liar Sleepless in Seattle The Fugitive Apollo 13 Total Recall Theres Something About Mary The Fifth Element Edward Scissorhands Shakespeare in Love You've Got Mail Star Trek: First Contact Ghost The Usual Suspects Scream The Ice Storm Mrs. Doubtfire GoldenEye Contact Ed Wood Four Weddings and A Funeral The Truman Show Independence Day An Interview With A Vampire Men in Black Jackie Brown Thelma & Louise Reservoir Dogs Aladdin Gross Point Blank Leaving Las Vegas While You Were Sleeping Dazed and Confused Casino City Slickers Demolition Man Rainmaker Falling Down Fried Green Tomatoes Leaving Las Vegas Clueless True Romance Leon: The Professional Con Air Election The Firm Who Framed Roger Rabbit 12 Monkeys Misery Galaxy Quest Newsies The Fisher King Pleasantville The Insider Legends of The Fall Far and Away Dracula Home Alone Groundhog Day Back to The Future: Part III A League of Their Own The Nightmare Before Christmas Backdraft Cape Fear Blast from The Past The Rock Conspiracy Theory Robin Hood: Men In Tights What About Bob?

The 1990s is truly one of the greatest decades in film history.

Cami, i think Kuato was supposed to be Prof X, the creators might have been Xmen fans, in the 1980s, we wanted an Xmen movie, but i think they were afraid to make one,

Have you seen "looper"? Good Bruce Willis Sci Fi.

Is it real? Is it a dream? Yes. It's whatever you want it to be. That's the way Paul Verhoeven wanted it to end -- with the viewer making the final decision.

37:10 "Your eyes are coming out of their sockets; there should be some damage from that." Maybe. But humans have had their eyes knocked completely out. Still attached to the optic nerve but hanging down on their cheek, and surgeons have reinserted it and the person can see again. So these two might be OK. Might suffer some temporary vision loss and possibly some small permanent vision loss. But not Arnold. He's too badass for that.

You've seen Starship Troopers and Total Recall, it really seems that Robocop has to be on this list. But that's because of Verhoeven, not Arnie. Admittedly it's the least of the three imo, but it wraps up the quintessential thematic trilogy.

Is what is happening to Quaid just a fantasy taking place in his head while he is strapped in a chair at Rekall? I was long resistant to the idea myself. But over the years, I've become persuaded that this is almost certainly the case. Even so, the film is sufficiently ambiguous that people can argue back-and-forth about it and never resolve the question absolutely.

the best

When your Younger, the sound a Neck or Back cracking sounds Horrible. But when you get older and hear the same sound you think how good that would feel!

no it's not a dream because he always sees the sweat on the forehead of the guy from Rekall

Of course this movie’s over the top as most Arnie movies are. They would have also frozen to death in the Mars atmosphere.

We all need you guys to react to the big horror series. Aka nightmare on elm street, child’s play, Halloween and Friday the 13th

I Love Me Some Cornflakes 🌽

I LOVE THIS MOVIE 🎥 IM GLAD I SEE WE LIKE SOME ARNOLD MOVIES 🎥🍿 MY TYPE OF WOMAN 😘 ♥️♥️ AWESOME MOVIE REACTION LOVE IT CLASSIC MOVIE 🎥

Never have I been more skeeved out by two weeks...

The fade to white at the end of the movie is classic symbology for wakeing from a dream. It wasn't real. Yes, I saw this when it was first released and I yelled "Bull S#!t" out load in the theater after the eye bulging scene at the end.

Cami, was it a dream? or was it?

get your ass to Mars

Its still not sure whether it's real or dream

If it was all a memory in his head we’d have not seen anything outside of his POV. Nothing else but his fake direct experience would exist. Also, if it was a memory implant that anyone could be given, why have the twists and fake-outs about what’s real and what’s not? It wouldn’t go that far, or in that direction.

you are so amazing you are so gorgeous you are such a goddess

Cami, if you watch the movie, Be Kind Rewind, i can tell you about the sweded videos on youtube

If you haven't seen it yet, check out Minority Report (2002) with Tom Cruise. It's based on a short story by Philip K. Dick, the same guy who wrote the short story that Total Recall is based on. Minority Report plays with some of the same themes as Total Recall, specifically themes of identity and the nature of reality and truth. Another film with some similar ideas is Dark City (1998) with Kiefer Sutherland and Jennifer Connelly.

No, Cami, relax, the bug in his head was not a bomb. But his fake lady head was.

Please checkout The Running Man it’s one of his best films

Hi Cami 😘😍 Excellent movie of Arnold Schwarzenegger with Sharon stone performance ...😆 Waiting your reaction princess to my list 📽 CONAN THE BARBARIAN 🎬 CONAN THE DESTROYED 🎬 COLLATERAL DAMAGE 🎬 KINDERGARTEN COP 🎬 JINGLE ALL THE WAY 🎬 THE RUNNING MAN 🎬 TERMINATOR lll 🎬 RED HEAT🎬 ERASER 🎬 TWIST 🎬 Arnold Schwarzenegger best movies 📽🎥💪 Kiss princess 💜

Cami is so fine. I would pick her over Sharon Stone. She is perfectly thick with a beautiful face and hair. Every man's type

not better True Lies? Why everyone is skipping that one of the best movie with Arnold and directed by Cameron?

If you enjoyed this, wait until you watch The Running Man.

I agree with you. It was all real. There's a limit to how far storytelling can push illusion twists. If EVERYTHING is in the character's head, then what's the point?

the Director wanted people to discuss if it was all real or not but to me there is too much evidence that it was real.

This is such a corny crazy movie. I can only think of 2 movies from Arnie. Twins and End of Days.

If you don't give a shit, just watch another film.

So......... what's the deal with Criminal Content? Is it the same channel and people?..... why does it have reactions and some (what looks like) attempt at true crime reporting?
