Yeah, just from the way it looks on the trailer and the poor reviews it's gotten, i'm definitely not gonna spend full price on this.
I'll be honest, I just saw it and I loved it. Absolutely. I'm not sure why some people are so annoyed/bored with it, considering it's a solid action film with incredible sci-fi dystopian elements. The atmosphere was utterly amazing. I too saw the reviews and the nay-saying, but I went anyways. And it was worth the time and money.
Saw this last night. I have to say it's better than I thought it would be. Visually it's probably the best movie of the year. The city scape is astonishing. In terms of plot it's like they wrote a script and only at the end did someone point out it was very much like Total Recall and so they changed some bits around to make it a loose remake.
I can't say I was disappointed as I thought it was going to be dreadful.
Tons and tons of subtle homages to other sci-fi movies. The Matrix, Star Wars, I Robot, Blade Runner and more.
Also a nod to the old movie with the woman with the 3 **** and the famous "two weeeeeks" woman.
All in I'd give it a 6.5/10.
Worth seeing on the big screen for the visuals alone.

From what i read Len Wiseman wanted this one based more on the story by Philip K Dick thats why its lil different
went and seen this a while back and enjoyed it, I don't think this remake is better then the original or anything along those lines they're both good in their own way.
