Trailer Synopsis Cast

In RoboCop, the year is 2028 and multinational conglomerate OmniCorp is at the center of robot technology. Overseas, their drones have been used by the military for years, but have been forbidden for law enforcement in America. Now OmniCorp wants to bring their controversial technology to the home front, and they see a golden opportunity to do it. When Alex Murphy – a loving husband, father and good cop doing his best to stem the tide of crime and corruption in Detroit – is critically injured, OmniCorp sees their chance to build a part-man, part-robot police officer. OmniCorp envisions a RoboCop in every city and even more billions for their shareholders, but they never counted on one thing: there is still a man inside the machine.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

RoboCop doesn't even compare to the original 1987 classic, and the sad thing is that this film lacks the original's satirical edge and humor. It's a movie made in a 2010s Hollywood risk-free environment directed by Jose Padilla who had too much respect for Paul Verhoeven's original that he had to rephrase any and all criticism he had for THIS movie. RoboCop 2014 lacks RoboCop 1987's teeth; it almost feels like it has none at all.I love the updated look first of all: it truly is great how they sleeked everything up to speed with post-2012 technologies and such, though the characterization, the lack of over-the-top violence and thuggery is something the remake desperately needed in order to measure to RoboCop's original '80s brilliance. Sadly the remake fell short because Padilla couldn't experiment enough; he was a dog on the Hollywood-executive leash and couldn't bite back once. Joel Kinnamen does bring some depth to Alex Murphy's character, but the guy's like a bunny-rabbit compared to Peter Weller's hardened veteran-cop but caring family man look that made him such a paradoxically awesome character in the original.Overall, this is a nice visual redo that unfortunately lacks the substance of its source.

What an awesome film I just saw, I'm not hardcore fan of the original Robocop, so I don't have any prejudice on this film. I heard it was awful and believe it and did not watch it until now 2018, I regret taking so long. It is amazing story, well executed, pretty solid movie, flawless. Even the black color has its purpose, he looks cooler, and he wore black while he was being manipulated by omnicorp, that represents the black, in the beginning and in the end he switched back to silver, the color he was meant to be how he meant to be, but Omnicorp prevent that from happening. The story of him as a father is magnificent. In the 80s people used to think the future will be more aggressive, well, guess what? We are in the future and the future is not agresive, so yeah he uses a teaser that's the world we actually live in, face it. Pretty awesome movie.

It's all too common now for every time to claim "oh yeah, remakes are never as good as the originals". Unfortunately, with additions like this, the argument is true. However, this is not as terrible as everyone may lead you to believe. In fact, I would say this was rather well crafted. Alex Murphy was just a cop doing his job, where a crime takes place involving him opening his car to a bomb detonation. Omnicorp, who desire a more human leading figure for their meticulously crafted robots, use Murphy's body (or what's left of it...) and put it into a robotic suit. Ladies and gentlemen, we now have ourselves...RoboCop. All those who have seen the original will say "all the graphic content has been washed away in this remake!". I've not seen the original, but from clips it was pretty hardcore and with focus on props rather than CGI. However, for what it's worth this is a fine film to introduce the eponymous character to a new generation. The visual effects used were well constructed and perfectly suited the environment, loved the constant use of Murphy's HUD so we can visualise what he sees. The production was clean, efficient and had a good clinical style. Gary Oldman was perfect as the conflicted pioneer in robotics. Michael Keaton was also decent for his role as the central antagonist. Joel Kinnaman takes a while to warm to, but by the end I thought his monotonous portrayal felt right. The characters themselves are underdeveloped due to the focus primarily being used on the ethical and moral implications of robotics and it's usage in national security. I would've liked a little more exploration in this topic as well. The main problem is how generic everything feels. The action, the characters, the plot...it's far too bland which prevents anything memorable from occurring. Sure it all looks good and is functional, yet all aspects were washed over. Jay Baruchel was odd casting as well. RoboCop is a serviceable remake, just can't quite settle on what it wants to be.

You see a lot of people telling you "don't compare this with the original" There's a reason for that. Robocop 2014 is not the same movie. The specifically effects are better, there is a little more action, and RoboCop has an upgrade.But then in exchange for those attributes, they stripped away the satire...Hollywood is convinced that "Millennials don't understand satire," and they are right. Seriously, give them a copy of The Onion, they just don't understand it...So the satire that made it so popular is gone.And with the satire went all social commentary. Everything insightful is gone. RoboCop 2014 really is not void of, well, anything.And mind you, this was made in 2014, in the era where the Libertarians, the TEA Party, and even your run-of-the-mill Republicans are screaming that everything needs to be privatized. The door is wide-open given the plot of the original...and 2014 to have really nothing to say about that.this is also in an era where we have self-driving cars, where we have robots working fast-food, where we are seriously looking at a future with self-driving semi-trucks. We are technologically advancing millions of people out of their jobs, we are handing entire careers over to robots and computers...and again, despite the abundantly clear link 2014 has weigh in one that...near silence.It seems they sat down and made a movie that had as little to say as humanly possible to the point where they even ignored even what the source material had to say.Have you ever cracked open a peanut shell only to find there was nothing inside it but air? That's RoboCop 2014
