are you kidding me .. it is most definately a great movie !!

its 100% satire (re. america)

I thought it was brilliant - especially coming from a non american director.
technically proficient as well ...

I was apdding my posts :)

I have always loved robocop, and the criterion version has some added scenes. Ok, well, only two, but they were enough that it skidded by with "only" an R rating.


When Kinney (i think) gets shot up by ed 209, there is a shitload more blood, completely gratuitous. And Murphy's death is quite drawn out. you get to see him stimble around with a missing hand and blood squirting out, and quite a bit more when they are gunninfg him down. the first shotgun blast sends whats left of his arm flying off like bat after a home run, and he has this god-awful look of horror and shock on his face.


definately the best acting peter weller ever did.

Note to self: Never, ever date guys who say they "loved the rape scene" in any movie. Because - ew. Ew, ew, ew.

Seriously. That's disgusting. I love how he acts as though he speaks from experience too. Like he knows what it looks like to watch a girl raped. Sick.

Makes me think of one of the most overrated films I have ever seen: Strawdogs.

Its bollox and the only reason that was famous was because of the one scene that got it banned. In the scene this bird gets raped and is meant to look like she's enjoyin herself.

But when they strarted sellin it again loads of people were just buyin it to see that one scene.

The film itself was poo.
Wrong :rolleyes:
