Deja View: Robocop (non spoiler edition)
I want to say upfront that Robocop is my second favorite action film, the only one I put above is Die Hard. So it was with a mix of excitement and dread that I faced the reboot. There will be a later post that goes into detail on the film series and will contain spoilers this one however is just a thumbs up or down quick post. Robocop 1987 Robocop stars Peter Weller as Alex Murphy a cop in Detriot who dies in the line of duty and is turned into Robocop to patrol the streets and stop crime. As I said in the intro this is one of my favorite movies, I recommend you watch it several times. There is such a sadistic glee in the violence in this film and the humor is as dark as it gets. Watch it again and again. Robocop 2 (1990) Robocop 2 stars Peter Weller as Robocop who continues to patrol the streets of Detroit and has to go up against OCP's drug addled Robocop 2. This movie is not as violent and not as funny as the first one but it does have alot of good stuff
