Ok, found out a little bit more about this remake.

Mars has been taken totally out of this movie. This really sucks because the Phillip K. Dick novel " We can remember it for you wholesale" revolved around mars. So instead the studio executives decided to focus the conflict on a future earth between Euro-America and New Shanghi. And our hero in this one is a spy with fuzzy memories caught between the two countries unsure of who he is working for.

The budget for this remake is 200 million, slated for an august 3rd release date, and a lead actor who has never been in a big budget movie, or let alone been in a hit movie.

They should never release a big budget movie like this in august. The summer movie season starts winding down in that month with schools and colleges starting back up just few of weeks after this remake opens. It's going to be very difficult for this film to just break even. And I don't think the foreign sales are going to help that much either.
