Movie Reviews of Robocop [Blu-ray]

Movie Review: Peter Weller Nancy Allen & Paul Verhoreen in the directors chair deliver
Summary: 5 Stars

This was a favorite of mine when I was a kid yes it's a violent movie but hey I seen it in 1997 and but was unfortunate enough to see the 2nd movie first infact I was 7 or 8 when I saw it and I also seen Terminator 1&2 when I was 10. But this film is about a cop who is gunned down by a gang lead by crime boss Clearance Bodicker played by Kurtwood Smith he gets away with anythiing becuse he's protected by Dick Jones played by Ronny Cox. He's a corprate head who even kills a corporate VP out of jelousy becuse Ropocop is cleaning up the streets he used to be officer Alex Murphy he is played by Peter Weller his former partner Ann Lewis played by Nancy Allen tries to help him remember he is Alex Murphy he starts to figure out he was once human. This Blu Ray released has the more violent death of Murphy and a more violent death of an OCP employee by ED 209 because he's a piece of Junk that's faulty. Easy 8.5/10

Summary of Robocop [Blu-ray]

There's a new law enforcer in town and he's half man, half machine! From the director of Total Recall and Basic Instinct comes a "sci-fi fantasy with sleek, high-powered drive" (Time) about an indestructible high-tech policeman who dishes out justice at every turn! When a good cop (Peter Weller) gets blown away by some ruthless criminals, innovative scientists and doctors are able to piece him back together as an unstoppable crime-fighting cyborg called "Robocop." Impervious to bullets and bombs, and equipped with high-tech weaponry, Robocop quickly makes a name for himself by cleaning up the crime-ridden streets of violence-ravaged Detroit.
When it arrived on the big screen in 1987, Paul Verhoeven's RoboCop was like a high-voltage jolt of electricity, blending satire, thrills, and abundant violence with such energized gusto that audiences couldn't help feeling stunned and amazed. The movie was a huge hit, and has since earned enduring cult status as one of the seminal science fiction films of the 1980s. Followed by two sequels, a TV series, and countless novels and comic books, this original RoboCop is still the best by far, largely due to the audacity and unbridled bloodlust of director Verhoeven. However, the reasons many enjoyed the film are also the reasons some will surely wish to avoid it. Critic Pauline Kael called the movie a dubious example of "gallows pulp," and there's no denying that its view of mankind is bleak, depraved, and graphically violent. In the Detroit of the near future, a policeman (Peter Weller) is brutally gunned down by drug-dealing thugs and left for dead, but he survives (half of him, at least) and is integrated with state-of-the-art technology to become a half-robotic cop of the future, designed to revolutionize law enforcement. As RoboCop holds tight to his last remaining shred of humanity, he relentlessly pursues the criminals who "killed" him. All the while, Verhoeven (from a script by Edward Neumeier and Michael Miner) injects this high-intensity tale with wickedly pointed humor and satire aimed at the men and media who cover a city out of control. --Jeff Shannon
