Robocop (2014)

 


Released over 10 years ago this was the remake nobody wanted or expected, the 1987 original is a bona-fide sci-fi classic, a political satire that is even more relevant in 2026 USA, the sequel I enjoyed, so did this justify (pun intended) it's release....

No.

The cast is good, some heavy-weights, Michael Keaton, Samuel Jackson, Gary Oldman, that's pretty much the plus points. A dull slow paced first hour, Robocop's suit like he's more designed for some extreme sports, the film is extinguished of it's originals satire, black humour, cartoon ultra-violence, this is strictly clean PG13 video game style action, a film that is just mediocre and to be honest rather dull.

Robocop, you were found guilty of blandness.

2/5
