Sooo it's like the original RoboCop, but without the cynicism, memorable characters, awesome media satire, deliciously overpowered guns, black humor, sense of urban decay, memorable quotes, gratuitous violence, toxic waste incidents, corporate backstabbing, thrilling action, coke parties, awesome theme song, failed roboprototypes, perfect pacing, likable protagonist, absence of cliched family bullshit and satisfying finale. If I wasn't emotionally dead inside, I'd cry.

"RoboCop, you have suffered an emotional shock. I will notify a rape crisis center." How do you make a Robocop movie boring? Why is Jay Baruchel in this , open your mouth when you talk you human toilet. I blacked out several times during this from choking on my own fat rage. But hey, Robocop 3 isn't the bad one anymore!!!

Time has eroded the '87 version into appearing cheesy, not just in special effects, but in spirit and essence. Technological advancements used to amaze people, but now seem expected. Big corporations used to frighten people, but they're now more or less ignored. So it comes as no surprise that a "RoboCop" remake without serious changes feels insincere and inauthentic. It jogs the memory for people who can think of the late 80's fondly, but is wholly unnecessary and only slightly entertaining.

The only thing I liked is when it showed Robocop as a pair of lungs, a face, and a brain because it looked weird like a science project. If the whole movie was just Samuel L. Jackson pushing this Murphy brain in a jar around in a shopping cart blasting niggas in they motherfuckin' domes with a hand cannon this would have been an all time masterpiece. Instead this is a wet poodle turd and as pointless as the Total Recall remake. You just don't fuck with the Verhoeven classics.

The perfect satire of the movie's own creation. "Make him look more tactical! He should transform; the kids love that! Put in something about foreign politics, the media, domestic politics! Have a scene we can put in the video game! Cut out the humanity! Remove the emotions!" And they end up with this nightmarishly amputated thing, grafted to a big, hulking but efficient machine and they claim that it's just like the original, but whenever it tries to act like the old one it gets shut down.

While it won't blow your mind or even set your heart racing, RoboCop IS entertaining, and everything in it is just barely sufficient to get a passing grade. Solid outings by Oldman and the robo dude, quite funny (a grateful surprise), and a decent score. I know it's a remake, but it feels and behaves more like Dredd's (2010) little underachiever brother.

Favorite things about this movie: 1. It wasn't an annoying Expendables-esque action film with gaping plot holes and totally stupid villains, especially with how easy that would have been with RoboCop. 2. My friend had a buy a Slurpee/get a free popcorn combo coupon he gave me so obviously I used it, drank the delicious Slurpee, ate about twenty pieces of the popcorn, then dumped the rest of the popcorn on the same friend at the end of the movie. 3. The line, "Why are we so robo-phobic?"

It's way too heavy handed and there's too many useless side characters. It feels like they are just trying to get a PG-13 which is distracting. Every scene with Samuel L Jackson was miserable (nice hair, btw). However, I must say, I laughed pretty hard when they called him tin man. That was just too funny for words! The most shocking thing about this movie is that they actually think Detroit will still exist in 2028.

It's safe, sanitised, homogenised crap, & I don't get how after more than 25 years, the original is the riskier one. I was waiting for the third act for the entirety of the boring first two, & when we finally got there, it was boring, unimaginative, cookie-cutter action. And the lead actor! So dull! This film is really annoying, because there's nothing ostensibly wrong with it, but there's nothing good about it either. It's all surface, no substance. Everything wrong with Hollywood today. Urgh.

Somewhere in there is an actually good idea for an updated remake. But much like the title character, any original idea is stripped down to a few disconnected bodyparts and delivered by a somnambulistic automaton of an actor, as the big company behind it hopes to hide any flaws behind a sleek plastic finish.

The 2014 incarnation of RoboCop is not the "death of RoboCop," as we've already had RoboCop 2, RoboCop 3, and that television series everyone likes to forget, but it also doesn't breathe new life into the franchise. This is an emotionally and intellectually repressed film, containing little humor, action, or characters. Apart from a few brief scenes starring Samuel L. Jackson, there is nothing to see, nothing to like, and nothing to remember.

HollywoodCrap. Oh yeah, they managed to put a man into a machine, granted, but they sure as hell sucked the soul out of Alex Murphy. I want my Verhoeven back, I want my gunslinging CowboyCop back, what the fuck is this? But you know why this remake fails so miserably, because every second of its pathetic runtime, it assumes you have seen the original.

RoboCop was high on the list of films that didn't need a remake. I was initially sceptical but upon release I warmed to the idea. The finished product is a mixed bag though. José Padhila clearly understands the source material and there are several nods to the original. But whilst some are crowd pleasing, others are cheaply executed. Kinnaman, Oldman & Keaton all sadly give lackluster performances. This isn't anywhere near as bad as it could of been, but ultimately it's pretty pointless also.

I feel like his title, RoboCop, is terribly misleading. First off, he should be CyberCop, since he's a cyborg, not a robot. Second, is he *really* a cop anymore? As far as I could tell, he worked for some private security co., not a legitimate police force.

It starts so good but then throws it all away and the pacing slows down to a crawl. The most interesting plot point, the illusion of free will, is mentioned once and then promptly forgotten. I can appreciate that the film tries to find a new angle to the story, but ultimately it falls flat on almost all fronts. And I thought I'd never say this, but the scenes with Samuel L. Jackson are just too long.

Remake of the cheesy 80's action classic tells the exact same story but with new cast and modernized message. Doesn't bring anything new to the table and the violence has been toned down to make it approachable to all audiences - missing the point of the original's hard edged satire. The action is decent and the cast does the best it can with the material, but why care about it when the original is a better package.

I went to see an action movie istead of a Robocop movie and I wasn't dissapointed. Don't compare this to original. Just enjoy of the action. The original is flawless and it's an 80's movie. They can't make that kind honest movies any more. The new movie works well in it's own and it doesn't rape the original. It doesn't feel like recycled and that's enough for me.

Relatively passable. Lacks proper villains that you love to hate, like those of the original, and it's far worse for it. Additionally Kinnaman is bland, the action scenes tiresome, and Alex Murphy is an extremely boring character in this remake. What's left of satire here is confined to out of place scenes with Samuel L. Jackson, done with zero subtlety or wit. The highlight and true hero of Robocop is Oldman's Dennett Norton, whose arc is surprisingly interesting and really what kept me awake.

Far from the satirical work of genius that the original film was, the latest update to Robocop is still a solid, fun action movie that respects the source material and has a strong enough emotional core to keep audiences engaged. That said, the fact that no one in this movie says "Bitches, leave" is a damn tragedy.

It's a reboot - so it deviates from the original. It's a PG-13 - so it's not as violent. It's not Robocop from 1987 - so don't get bent about it it not being Robocop from 1987. It's ok for a PG-13 reboot... it isn't Robocop 1987, but it's a Robocop.

Ironically in today's era of attention-deficit cinema, RoboCop is a lot more moral and introspective than the original. Gone are the Verhovenisms, like the satirical commercials, the hyper violence and cartoonish villains. Instead there's an emotional undercurrent that raises this above a stupid guy-in-a-suit flick. Finally, was I the only one who found it funny that the entire RoboCop program was being funded by Bruce Wayne?

Verhoeven's original, a film I genuinely love, is one of the defining movies of my youth. This remake then was not particuarly welcome. I will say it's not the car crash I was expecting, and like the recent "Total Recall" remake, it's simply a servicable, largely forgettable action sci-fi that's sadly restricted by its 12A certificate. Padilha seemed to know what made the original so great, but had no idea how to create something like it for himself, and fails.

Not as good as the 80s film, but it's different enough to stand on its own and does reasonably well. The satire is effective, but muddies the waters with its set-up and it's not an angle I find particularly interesting. Still, it has some fun moments and is pretty good.

Good special effects. A decent extension of the original story. Kinnaman was average but Gary Oldman was good. I did not like the conflict with the trainer. It's also really stupid that his armor still exposes his mouth.The simulations were tedious, and the company drama was lousy. Overriding his brain to full robot mode was dumb. Really lame news broadcasts. The story is a bit jacked, but there is some good action and a bit of decent human struggle and drama.

This movie had pretty much everything going against it, being yet another unnecessary rehash of a gloriously insane Verhoeven sci-fi classic. Yet, surprisingly, it wasn't half bad. I liked that they tried to root the gradual man/machine merger in some actual science, and also the fact, that the people responsible for creating Robocop, weren't flat out antagonistic - that is, up until the botched climax, where the writers unfortunately just gave up.

A Robocop movie that replaces all the fun ultraviolence of the original with political thrills and then replaces the thrills with constant debates in the same laboratory, over and over again.

Being a big fan of the original, I didn't see the reason for this to be made. After watching it, still don't think so. The PG-13 rating is a issue, but it's not a film killer. It's action sequences were solid, and there was more attention to the phycological and human emotion segments that I appreciated and that also can attributed to a great cast. However, this setting, rather weak story, and especially a villain that felt thrown together, this was never gonna be on par with the first.

Action scenes are well delivered throughout and Gary Oldman's performance is first class as per usual.

Its fine but could have been better!

The remake is entertaining, but not as noticeable nowadays as Verhoeven's version was back then. Few remakes are. Besides for the doctor showing Murphy so brutally what he has become right away (which can't be a good way for him to realize that), then I loved how much time they spent on testing him, modifying him and explaining how he functions. The original movie skips most of that. Even before his operation we are introduced to the technology available and how emotions can affect the software.

It's not a complete disaster. Basically, just a super serious (it's a modern Hollywood action, after all) and super literal adaptation of what the original was about.

I liked that they created an actual character out of Alex Murphy/Robocop. The action was directed well, but there was too little of it. Too little of actual Robocop being cold as ice Robocop and too little humor. The big bad corporation was written with realistic real-world unethical behavior when what was needed was more exaggerated evil for the ending to make sense. I did like the story, though, and its a decent origin film. Too bad theyll probably never make a sequel to this one.

Carried by an array of strong performances, this new RoboCop is not a bad movie, just a frustrating one. Save for a disturbingly dystopian opening segment, the teeth have been pulled from the script's satirical bite. The final act is so rushed that the Secret Big Bad just becomes a villain because the film requires him to be one. For a story about the human element overcoming its evil corporate programming, it feels like the corporate machine has conquered the original's rebellious human spirit.

We can't accurately make a decision on this movie if we try to hold it up to the original. This is a re-imagining of RoboCop with only sparse elements brought over. This isn't a dystopic criminal cesspool, for instance, it's just Detroit, and the motivations for building RoboCop are completely different. Are they better or worse? Subjective. I like that there are multiple unanswered questions to lead to a sequel. Good for what it is: flash, arguably less substance, but entertaining nonetheless.

Less gleefully satirical than the original (and no, you cannot help but compare to the original), but just as allegorical. While there is no self-awareness in the film's visual style, favoring straightforward action, the mechanisms (sorry) of the characters vary so wildly from the source you have to give it adequate pause. This Alex, who is destroyed by a car bomb, rebuilt by a defense contractor, and then reconciled with his family, is airing some serious current-affairs wartime grievances.

The idea of removing the human element from our police force domestically and our soldiers everywhere is a double edged sword. Lives are saved, but compassion is left by the wayside. This is a terrifying topic, and this flick tries to do it justice. Though it fails to really reach its lofty goal, it DEFINITELY gets you thinking, and is wrapped up in a decently stylized action film. The topic is relevant and interesting, and I wish this film had a bit more finesse and had a stronger impact.

I've never seen the originals, so I couldn't even compare it to that. But this movie feels like it had a chance but failed to do anything with it. The story and tone of this movie really could have gone in either a dark direction or been more light and fun and exciting. In the end it wouldn't commit to either and that's where it falls. It's not all bad; Oldman is good, I really like Kinnaman, and there are good action pieces. For recent reboots, it's hard not to look at Dredd, which was better.

Padilha fought the law (of Hollywood blockbuster filmmaking) and, overall, the law won. There is some merit, however, in the critical encounter the film stages, in the context of militarised drone technology and media performativity and stupidity, between quasi-Dennettian cognitivism that views thinking in terms of information processing, and a quasi-Dreyfusian existential account (largely reduced to "feelings") that sees thoughtful decision-making as irreducible to computationalist paradigms.

As an actual movie it's pretty dull, but as a remake of something with a following it's pretty hilarious. It even has updated social commentary that will seem half prescient, half histrionic in 30 years like its predecessor.

Took everything you loved from the original and replaced it with 2 hours of familial drama and moral quandaries.

Every day Obama decided who would be killed by flying killer robots. Not the film's plot; reality i.e. bad science fiction dystopia. Robocop invokes related issues but in a dull way. Relations of thought, rationality, emotion posed within film cliche. Seemed to threaten to climax with wife begging robohubby, love overcoming programming, etc. Honestly can't remember if it did. Unlike DIVERGENT, which did. FWIW: https://www.jacobinmag.com/2018/03/jose-padilha-mechanism-narcos-elite-squad-netflix

Feels more than a bit formulaic. Everything is alright but nothing is good, and the plot twists are very predictable. Decent entertaining if you can't find anything better to watch.

It's either too heavy on the action scenes or too predictable in it's plot lay out to feel like a film of substance. Despite that, the characterization was strong and the acting phenomenal. It felt too formulaic to develop into something that changed the game. It was action packed, exciting and the affects were wonderful, it was on the writing front that it fell apart. A much darker tone would have done this film a world of good to help create a more realistic world for RoboCop to be apart of.
