Shit the Total Recall Remake Better Have In It...
JOHNNY CAB
BITCH FIGHTS
KUATO
BUGGY EYES
TRACKING DEVICE IN NOSTRIL CAVITY
TO BE PLACED IN CANDY BAR
AND SNATCHED UP BY RAT
THREE-BREASTED WOMAN
infinitely superior...

Let me make this clear. The American remake, which is simply titled LET ME INisn't just a respectful remake of the already amazing Swedish thriller. It compliments it and expands the story and characters that originated in the novel. Yet, at the same time, the film marches to its own beat. It's stylish and haunting, just like the original film, and the story is relatively the same. But you can't shake the feeling that you're not watching just a remake. It's not just a retelling or a reshoot. It's a deeply developed rendition that benefits from the addition of several wise choices.

I don't want to give anything away, so, I'll keep from praising the movie any further. I highly recommend seeing the original Swedish film first, or at the very least see it after.
