RoboCop (1987)

Genre: Science-Fiction / Action
Directed by: Paul Verhoeven
Cast: Peter Weller, Nancy Allen, Ronny Cox
Time: 102 minutes

 


Detroit police officer Alex Murphy gets murdered by a group of criminals while on duty. Megacorporation OCP then proceeds to bring him back to life as part of project to create a new cyborg police officer called RoboCop.

I remember digging this film as a kid, having it on VHS in my collection. Looking at it today, I see the campiness of it a lot more. The acting is decent enough, albeit a little over-the-top, which fits with the genre. This remains a fun and entertaining movie, with loads of action, very bad people, and a perfect hero.
