Will you miss the big theaters?

I thought the second "Total Recall" was a vast improvement over the original. For one thing, no Swartznegger.

I'm going off my impression of the films when I first saw them and I haven't revisited either since.  I thought Colin Farrell was a sad replacement for the Governator.  At times he appeared to barely wanted to be in the movie.  The entire character of the later movie was different and left me with a lack of any coherent feel for where the film was taking me.  Say what you want about Schwarzenegger's lack of range, but his presence works in a film that is geared for it.
