Boring
... View MoreExcellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
... View MoreA clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

... View MoreI stumbled upon "The Recall" by sheer luck. I picked it up, saw who was in it and read the synopsis. Right, well this was not going to be a spectacular in Hollywood cinema, for sure. But still, I decided to sit down and watch the movie, as Wesley Snipes do have some good enough movies every now and then."The Recall" turned out to be fair enough entertainment, but hardly brought anything new or revolutionary to the alien visitor genre.I will say that the movie certainly had good special effects and CGI. However, it was plagued by an overly generic storyline, which sort of slowly drained the enjoyment away in small fragments.It should also be said that they had some good acting in the movie, and the cast definitely lived up to performing adequately in bringing their characters to life on the screen.Now, the movie certainly did have some flaws, of course. One of the biggest and most annoying was how very convenient the alien ship just happened to have an easily accessed passage that allowed for Charlie to roam about the ship.All in all, "The Recall" is adequately entertaining for a single viewing. Just don't expect anything spectacular here and you will not be too disappointed.
... View MoreIf you like alien stuff, watching this movie is a must. It reminded me of "Signs" (2002, Mel Gibson) There is a good suspense, some action and clitché characters and the film feels really short. Great actors, especially the "Blade" guy, lol, this dude does certainly know how to make us laugh in an apocalyptic world.
... View MoreThis movie follows the pattern of so many other low budget sci fi movies. Its more about 1 dimensional teen dating and angst than sci fi. No one in the movie is likable, the plot is stupid, and the effects are barely adequate.Its a step up from a Syfy channel movie, or Asylum movie, but not a big one.
... View MoreAwful film, do not lose your time. Bad actors, poor script, annoyingly illogical situations, and the very fragile story is an offense to the spectator's intelligence. It's a shame to see Wesley Snipes' name involved in producing such junk. Photography is not bad at all, and special effects are acceptable. Apparently this movie was kind of a training effort, nothing more than that.
