What happens

Total Recall is a 2012 American science fiction action film directed by Len Wiseman from a screenplay by Kurt Wimmer and Mark Bomback, conceived by Wimmer, Ronald Shusett, Dan O'Bannon, and Jon Povill. It stars Colin Farrell, Kate Beckinsale and Jessica Biel. The film is an adaptation of the 1990 film of the same name, which was inspired by the 1966 short story "We Can Remember It for You Wholesale" by Philip K. Dick. The supporting cast features Bryan Cranston, Bokeem Woodbine, John Cho, and Bill Nighy. Unlike the original film, the setting is on a futuristic Earth, not Mars. The film was first announced in 2009.

Moritz and Toby Jaffe's Original Film, Total Recall was released in North America on August 3, 2012, to generally negative reviews, and grossed $211.8 million worldwide. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
