The big problem with Total Recall was that it was just no fun.
The original Total Recall, like Robocop and Starship Troopers, were all directed by Paul Verhoven, and each movie worked on 2 levels. The was of course the main story of each, but cleverly woven into each was incredible, funny, biting satire. In fact, the ultra-violence in Robocop was a part of the satire.
I didn't see the new robocop yet but the reviews are mixed. The new one is rated PG so the violence is gone, and apparently there's no humour at all so that's gone too. And according to IMDB the director called making Robocop the "worst experience of his life" because 9 out of 10 ideas he had were squashed by the production company.
