When
the director of your movie tells his friend “the worst experience
of his life” and “for every ten ideas he has, nine are cut”
followed by “It is hell here. The film will be good, but I have
never suffered so much and I do not want to do it again” you know
that you're in for one hell of an experience one way or another. I've
been championing for this movie ever since the first images of the
new RoboCop design came out and after seeing it I have to say it
was...okay.
This
is very different from the original movie in terms of everything
except the names and the fact that it takes place in Detroit. Instead
of being murdered by a gang of guys Murphy is killed by dirty cops.
This film is about police corruption as much as its about evil
companies doing what they need to to make sure they make as much
money as possible. It gets kinda distracting with the back and forth
between the company, the cops, and the family. OCP has robots in
almost every country but in the U.S. They seem rather effective but
scary as shit.
Murphy
is blown up except for his hand, head, and lungs. He freaks right the
fuck out when he sees himself. I mean, he asks to see what is left of
himself and I would've had them stop once I saw that my dick was
missing. His wife wants to see him and they keep putting it off and
when he finally sees her she is way more understanding than I
expected.
