One of the most technically impressive movies of it's time, both for the use of CGI when such things were unheard of and the massive practical effects budget at work. It's also based on a short story you probably never heard of, but does that matter? It's got Arnold Schwarzenegger, gunfire and explosions.

"Why does space travel become more dangerous over time?" Probably the same reason everything else gets less safe over time: Budget cuts.
Or cooperate espionage. Those Total Recall people were not exactly saints.
Space travel is pretty dangerous.
At least they gave Quaid a full refund. Not many other corporations do that these days.
TheScholar74 highest temp we have measured is 68 degrees
Huh?
Decker: "Summer of Arnold Sch"
Me: Its almost winter
Your Mom I said the same thing, than again he lives in Texas so summer all year round
Your Mom maybe to Decker summer ends when snow flies
Skyler Maves texas gets cold asf dude. Most of us might not get a lot of snow. But i freeze my ass off during winter and some of fall
Also his dental health has been bad, preventing him from doing reviews for awhile IIRC.
Dental procedures plus hurricane put summer on hold for Decker.
"How do you like your women?"
"Sleazy"
Did you geek out when you found out that the original writers of "Alien" were behind this movie?
I did!
Jerry goldsmith also scored this movie , the guy who scored ALIEN
( you probably already knew that but nobody pointed it out )
These reviews are pure gold! I have watched most of them twice, watching older ones while waiting for new ones. They never get old. You are actually 'the internet personality with the best... personality!'. One of my absolute favorite channels ever! :)
I love this movie
If this reaches December, let's hope he reviews Jingle All The Way.
It's Turbo Time
So much yes please.
Put that cookie down!
Maybe on the next Arnold review, Decker could pop his head out of a turkey.
Man...the hilarious image that that brings to mind! Insanely funny!
One of you best reviews yet! "Right down the street from 'No Fucking Way'" LOL! Hilarious.
Decker: He's got more implants than she does
Me: *spits out my drink*
Ok
@@No1ANTAGON1ST what?
@@RAVENVROSE
He’s quoting decker when he talks about quaids marriage is a memory implant
I just noticed that my phone autocorrected decker to "Deckard"
Thank you autocorrect for ruining my comment
Last Action Hero better be next man
I love how the microwave’s timer was set at 4:20! Lol
“See you at the party rictor” I think that’s my favorite line in this flick.
Mine is...
“Consider that a divorce.”
I actually hope you keep "The summer of Arnold" going until June 20th just so everyone can keep making comments that "it's not summer anymore". I think Decker knows that guys!
Great review btw. This is probably the first really violent movie I saw as a kid so it holds a special place in myevil heart. Also, the effects by Rob Bottin are freakin' awesome (as usual)!!!
This is the Paul Verhoven bridge between Robocop and Starship Troopers.
It has the gritty and raunchy violence of RoboCop, but it also has the larger scale and space military that would be prominent in Starship Troopers.
"TH-cam will just call it limited marriage. "
Me: "I think you spelled Twitter wrong."
Who else got the 'True Lies' joke
well decker did review both movies
A masterpiece indeed, hard to find another movie so absolutely stuffed with ingenuity, twists and WTF moments. Plus the Verhoeven/Schwarzenegger combo, there will never be anything like this made ever again.
That Saturn joke was awesome.
Hey, that "they're all connected!" guard that barks back at Michael Ironside is Marc Alaimo/Gul Dukat!!
Fun fact: in the original theatrical release, you could see the clamp holding up the Mars Backdrop in the kissing scene at the end. It was later digitally removed, but you can still see the sharp upper edge of the cloud stage prop as it is moved to the side.
This was Sharon Stone at her peak GODDAMN!-ness. Seriously though, as many times as I’ve seen this movie, I realize that I don’t think I’ve actually seen the first 15 minutes or so.
When I was a kid I would always rewind her first scene lol
Her looks didn’t hold up in the later ‘90s.
Fantastic review Decker, this is when Hollywood gave a shit & made action sci-fi films for mature audiences not the teen adolescent market.
2 videos in 1 week? Thank you Decker, we needed this
I need to do that to try to catch up to where I'm supposed to be. Summer wasn't supposed to take until November... but next week's looking crazy. Not just Thanksgiving, but I've got THREE thanksgivings to go to. When did my life turn into a sitcom?
Decker Shado yeah thanks decker
You got what you want!!!! Now Give Does People AIR!!!!!
The sonic game case was hilarious
Paul Verhoeven, man.
Since all the ambiguity was missing from the remake, i'll bet no one was thinking about THAT movie after leaving the theater. how to remake a classic but leave its soul on the cutting room floor.
the remake is horrible. no mars, no mutants, except one random woman with 3 tits just for the hell of it. just nonstop overly silly action scenes with unrealistic cgi.
Was the microwave purposely on 4:20?
Farcri I think it was
Probably
Hitler's birthday.
Illuminati called. They want you in by all means. Dead preferably.
Man you are under rated
It isn't summer anymore though....oh well. I love the SUMMER OF *insert here* intros. So I love it. I don't care.
Others like to debate whether the movie is a "dream" or not.
Doug may never figure that out for certain, but it's pretty clear that it's all real. Why?
We saw many scenes of what the villain's were doing by themselves without Doug. Those wouldn't exist if it were all fake memories.
Thank you. I've pointed this out many times to people who think this movie(and others) are all just in the heads of a single character. Narrative wise it makes no sence.
i have an explanation for benny.
the psychics never bothered to read benny's mind because he was a mutant and not really even important compared to Douglas
If you listen veeeeery carefully to the background techs during the memory implant scene, you'll hear the one line that tells you whether it's all an implanted memory or not.
is it??
Gotta review "Demons" (1985), "Screamers" (1995), "Nightbreed" (1990), and "Night of the Creeps" (1986)
At 20:52 : Gosh, I absolutely love this excellent impression of Arnold Schwarzenegger!
“Damn, we’re in trouble if the nose goblins are starting to load up with minié balls.”
I am crying my eyes out now
I fuckin’ LOVE Total Recall. I’ve seen that damn movie so many damn times. It’s a classic to me. But, anyway. Decker, I love your intro. I’m glad you’ve kept and keep it the same in EVERY video you do, that’s definitely what’s up! Great content, it was very entertaining, and 10/10 as ALWAYS! Keep it up, man. You’re the bees knees. #DeckerShado #TotalRecall
I’ve actually NEVER seen the newer Total Recall. I’ve heard MIXED reviews. I’ll definitely check it out, eventually....
Merry Christmas Decker, I watched the full commercial before the video :-)
At the point in my life that this came out the eye bulging suffocation scenes were hands down THE most traumatizing thing I had ever seen on film. And I had already seen the Exorcist, Freddy, Jason, etc at a young age. Holy shit did I hate this movie back then lol
Just think if all of this was a memory implant and after the movie ends Doug wakes up at total recall, he would have memories of murdering his wife, co-workers and a shitload of other cannon fodder. How he could adjust back to normal life after that? In my opinion the "secret agent" implant was always just a prayer for psychosis, anyone who gets that will remember themselves killing other people and that seriously can't be healthy for normal persons mind.
Total Recall is the greatest movie ever made in my opinion,absolutely timeless.
Its Always a summer for our old pal Decker. :D
Love your work Decker. You do the reviews others can't and your real like someone I could actually be friends with.
I didn't know Jesus reveiwed movies
Gokubond 007 299 he reviewed for our sins
I always fought it was Frank Zappa.
@@vistea1 Frank was real, jesus was a fantasy.
@@Hithere-ek4qt existence is the fantasy of a grand eldritch being in the vast abyss. sentience is a lie. your existence means nothing. there is no grand scheme. we're all going to die.
@@vistea1 That's what I've been saying!
Hey man, jus discovered your channel like a few days ago and I been watching quite a few of your reviews... I find your videos entertaining af, I enjoy how you reference gaming. eg:those random spawns will get you. Or look dolph lungerin has a pip boy. Don't change a damn man
"Get your ass to Mars " scene was 2nd most memorable. Can you tell this was my favorite movie as a kid. So many memorable quotes, especially Arnies struggling vocalizations "aahheeoohhaiou"
I just realized that everything the guy says comes true right after he kills him the weeks come down , then he's seen as the savior, and finally the video reveal that him and cohagen were friends. .. trippy ..
I'm pretty sure that TRON, The Last Starfighter, Return of the Jedi, and Young Sherlock Holmes beat this movie to the punch for CGI effects in major motion pictures, by quite a few years.
It's weird how close some of the future predictions in this movie were. Not the recall but the johnny cab (self driving cars/uber), AR videogames, using car dashboard for communications, Skype...
Brilliant movie - last of the big-budget, 'old-school' effects of models and camerawork; filmed on the Mexico City Metro and Estudios Churabusco in DF.
Is there a chance that a Dark City review is on its way in the future? Similar to this movie and having Keifer Sutherland and Rufus Sewell.
DillyDyson007 Yep.
However don’t expect Keifer being Badass.
15:07 She was also in Falling Down (which is also a masterpiece).
23:09 Technically, Martians on Mars weren't "aliens." Not if they were indigenous (or naturalized), that is. If they came from somewhere else, then they were aliens, at least until they became naturalized to the environs. See also the Eridians from Borderlands (who are continuously referred to, along with the Vaults, as being "alien" by Tannis, Jack, etc.).
23:52 "That's a new one. Blue sky on Mars!"
Well we're already half way through November you might as well just keep this going till the end of the year
Damn it Decker, I need Sleep for school...it can wait...
Thanks for putting up a review tonight Decker. I've been sad tonight, and this is just what I need.
What if the entire movie is just quads life flashing before his eyes as he dies on mars in the intro scene? Starts out normal but slowly becomes more and more unbelievable and then ludicrous as the oxygen in his brain depletes and we finally see a shiney happy "White light moment" with Quad essentially turning Mars into heaven as he finally dies from exposure.
Phoenixesper1 That’s a possibility, but I’ve always assumed the whole story really happened-in context of the movie of course.
Decker’s thoughts
*Hmm. Where can I place my head the next video?*
I will always love your reviews. It helps me figure out if I should watch a certain movie or not
That Robot Picardo with Robert Picardo’s voice is uncanny. Also is this where everyone makes fun of the Schwarzenegger noises? Or in all the movies, he really does do that.
I've seen this movie, like... a lot. But only once all the way through. I think I saw the scene in the tunnel like, once a month on USA network growing up.
What a great movie. Also it makes me really want a Claridge Hi-Tec pistol, but man those are rare.
Decker I love your reviews man, they're fuckin great. Very comical as well. Love it!
My favourite line from the movie...
‘Sue me, dickhead....’
I quote it every time I jump a taxi on a Friday night when I’m drunk af and don’t have the money for a taxi, but they already drove me home
Movie is that insanely quotable. But that is not my favorite quote.
@@Outlaw8908 outta hear pepe
A lot of the writing is hard to make sense of. At Rekal for example, at first Bob Mclain acts like he doesn't want Quaid to take the Mars package, like he's aware of the Agency and that Quaid is planted with a false identity, but then he talks Quaid into the Ego Trip, which is the opposite of what he would do if he's worried about Quaid recalling his identity.
Awesome decker! I’ve been waiting for another review!
Robert Picardo voiced Johnny Cab?? Wow I never realized or thought to look it up
Decker you a madman to keep up the Summer of Awnuld! Keep up the good work dood~
Ah that feeling of popping on Old Decker and binging my heart out
3:59
DECKER SHADO :
" SPACE TRAVEL BECAME
RIDICULOUSLY
MORE DANGEROUS
WHY IS THAT ? "
answer :
XENOMORPHS
SON !
.
Salute you from Brazil, dude. Your channel is freakin' awesome and funny. Keep up with the good work!
lead pill spitting out the red pill....fucking love that :)
It’s snowing at my house ...... definitely summer
9:52 ahh tiny stunt doubles lol.
0:09 DUDE WEED LOL
One of your best reviews imo. Great stuff!
I hope you will pull another "summer review" somewhere around 30th of December. It would be a nive birthday gift.
I was waaay too young when I saw this! Had nightmares about the faces expanding and blowing up, eyeballs popping out... (shudders) Anyhow, good old Mrs. Two Weeks was a practical effect?? How the hell did they do that?
I like the microwave Photoshop trick. 👌
Verhoeven really had something going between this and RoboCop.
Don't worry Decker , it's gonna be 92 here in Los Angeles on thanksgiving . Summer lives . Fuck I hate the heat .
Nice review... The endless summer!
thats so strange i was actually looking for a total recall review earlier this week and here it is.
sexy as always decker, keep up the great content. cheers
13:46 Gul Dukat received a demotion.
Robert Costanzo AKA that guy everyone thinks is Danny Devito but is in no way related to Danny Devito.
Ryan McCarthy I always thought it was Bob Hoskins.
23:00 "completely unarmed" lol very good 😂
Cannot say enough how great Rob Bottin's special effects were. That alone is reason enough to watch this.
+! for recognizing a minie' ball as a prop. Missed the Cramer Cameo.
"Fuck 'em"
I never get tired of you decker!
Cwanto... His host was the Super Cool Gym teacher from Nightmare 2. AWESOMENESS💥💥💥
Fun fact: the mutant who helps Quaid and Melinda escape is Hank Schrader.
7:09 I have read about a pirate who actually forced people to have a drink with him at gunpoint.
I tend to think everything after he gets hooked up to the Recall machine is an implanted false memory.
Man, Decker's videos just hit better.
Decker, How about next year you do 'The Summer of Saw'
Dude you totally called it, except it’s two years later, but I’m here two years after you commented to point out your amazing prediction
The cool thing about this movie is...you're left to decide for yourself if everything that happened was real or just all part of Doug's Ego Trip.
Next "Month of" you should do is John Woo films. I think his films would give you an ample amount of entertaining and unique material to work with.
1:28 That's some hard ass gravity right there
Decker you should make a top 10 or 15 twist in movies I'm sure this would be at the top 5
Terra Novei that sounds like an interesting video he should do
Hell yea. This is my all time favorite movie.
The "unarmed" joke really got to me, man x'D
When Arnold says he doesn't want a drink don't force him to go with you to get one. He will terminate you if you do.
