Directed by: Len Wiseman
Starring: Colin Farrell, Kate Beckinsale, Bryan Cranston, Bokeem Woodbine
Other mistake: When Melina picks up Quaid on "I19", the car seat is an integral part of the door. When Quaid gets out of the car after crashing on the street, the seat is an integral part of the chassis.
Other mistake: In the chase scene on I19 Hauser pushes the throttle forward to accelerate but in the police cruiser the throttle is pulled backwards to accelerate.
Factual error: In the movie, when the elevator ("the fall") reaches the middle of the planet, everything turns weightless. In reality, everything should have turned weightless as soon as the elevator was dropped, given they're in freefall.
Doug Quaid: If I'm not me, then who the hell am I?
Trivia: When Quaid gets to great Britain with the fake passport and fake face, before him is a fat lady in green who strongly resembles the "costume" used by Arnold Schwarzenegger in the original film.
Question: Maybe I wasn't paying attention but Hammond (the man on the phone) and Hauser himself tell him about a key, which he finds in the piano. When did he use this, and why did they make such a big deal about it, mentioning it twice, he would "know how to use it"? How did he know the safety deposit box (number 10549) Hauser and Hammond never said this.
Answer: Early in the movie, Quaid says he wants to learn how to play the piano.

Answer: First off, they made such a big deal about it because it was the key to a more involved message from Hauser and they wanted to make sure that he knew it was important. But regarding the safety deposit box, after the phone message from Hammond, Quaid got a text message that told him a bank name and a box number.
