I think part of the reason why Total Recall and all those 80s/90s movies are pure legend... Is actually the Music. The Music was awesome and at times, it was as if the music was playing in the background, while the actors delivered their lines - they fit so perfectly together. Modern movies just have some throwaway, same old same old, music that seems added as an afterthought to the movie.

By the way, Jerry Goldsmith music for Basic Instinct (and with Paul Verhoeven too) was used in another car commercial with Sharon Stone...; Jerry Goldsmith was a master and his music was so...magical and powerful, that the music for pictures is not the same without him. Now you have that media-venture music of Zimmer and Co. and all the people saying "What a great music score"!!!

In that time, a movie could be especially interesting because of groundbraking new effects. Today, basically anything is possible. Whatever you may not be able to shoot, just produce it in CGI. I am not saying it's a simple task to do perfectly convincing photorealistic 3D, but with the right artists, it is possible, and so anything can be done. The last time we saw groundbraking technology was in Avatar in 2008. Since then, movies get overflown with CGI, often where practical effects would have been more interesting.
