Total Recall is a Total Flop After a Disappointing Opening Weekend in The US

The remake of the classic Total Recall had a disappointing opening weekend in the US Box Office.

The movie which stars Irish hunk Colin Farrell only raked in €21 million which left it in the second spot behind The Dark Night Rises which made €29.4 million.

The big budget flick cost Sony a whopping €160 million to produce but there are fears that the remake could be a total turkey.

Colin spent months in the gym to build muscle for the leading role. The actor was required to film sex scenes with Hollywood hottie Jessica Biel for the remake of the sci-fi classic.

The Irish Sun reports that movie insiders are not rating Total Recall, which will be released in Ireland later this month.

Moviegoers have been rating the film and the average mark has been a C+.

However Sony have slammed remarks that the film is not performing well.

Distribution Chief Rory Bruer said: “It’s always been a world play and it’s tracking well.

“I think we’re going to be very pleased with the results.”

Colin has persuaded his costars Jessica Biel and Kate Beckinsale to jet into Dublin for the Irish premiere of the film on August 18.
