Reviews
Good conversion of a Classic

The movie itself needs no introduction or review.
Blu ray version versus dvd. Great improvent in picture clarity, much better than upscaled Dvd but not full HD. Colour is magnificant.
Sound is pretty good too.
Menus are pretty arbituary and the lack of bonus content is dissapointing.
A Blu-ray essential if you are a fan of the movie
Best version available - It's a port of the HD DVD transfer

I see this product has one review by a sadly misguided soul who thinks this is a bad grainy transfer. First of all, this is the same transfer as the excellent HD DVD version, also the pitch problem has been fixed too. I had owned the US artisan release on Blu-ray prior to this and this is a big improvement on that transfer. The disc is coded region A,B. The sound is 5.1 DTS HD master audio. Due to the lack of any extras it misses the final star for my review. However, in terms of image and sound quality, This is the best version available of this cracking film.
No extras, no better than DVD, no point...

Although it's now nearly 20 years old, Total Recall should have made for a fantastic experience on Blu-ray. But it's a huge disappointment.
The transfer is very grainy, and you'd be hard pressed to distinguish it from the DVD edition. The colour lacks zing, especially in the Last Resort and Rekall scenes. Even the menus look cheap and cruddy. Worse, there are no extras at all - unforgivable, given that the DVD special edition has a whole stack of them and costs only a fiver on Amazon.
Releases like this give the impression that studios just see high def as an opportunity to fleece customers for their back catalogue. Not good.
