- Synopsis:
- 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. But despite his new hardened exterior, RoboCop is tormented by scraps of memories of his former life, and relives vivid nightmares of his own death at the hands of the vicious killers. Now he is out to seek more than justice...he wants revenge!

Acceptable in the eighties. - RoboCop review by DC
I thought that this was such a great film when it came out, but that was nearly forty years ago, and I was clearly a different person back then. I watched it in 2024 for the first time in decades, and the longer it went on, the less I cared about what happened. People got shot, some of them had it coming, stuff blew up, yeah, whatever.
