RoboCop (2014)
OK....and breath!!!
Before I point the flaws and there are many, many, many flaws! My mum
always told me if you need to find some good in everything in life!
So, the good points.
The film has RoboCop in it! The correct theme music is there. The
modern effects are spot on. The plot keeps to the original concept,
in part.
Right now I can
unleash! This film is again a great example of how Hollywood need to
grow some balls! The film lacks the power of the original and the
power of central character. The film is a remake of satirical SciFi
Action classic – so what should there be here. Satirical view on
fascist police state run by a large corporation – well no. They
failed, the plot does revolve around the idea of Omnicorp trying
bring there robotic products onto the streets of America, but this
lacks any of the originals clever messages – this version just
fails on any satirical level.
The action – well
I’m still waiting to see some action in this action movie – the
film when it does finally have action, either uses too many shaky
camera angles or the speed of the action is so quick you miss the
brief escape from the endless boardroom chats.
The scifi element –
well that is here, unfortunately what they have focussed on in this
reboot, reimaging, remake … piece of crap! Is they have focussed on
the Murphy family and that’s how they draw into Murphy's humanity,
instead of using an actor who can internilise the frustration from
within the suit, we have endless scenes with Mrs Murphy unhappy and
RoboCop missing his family!!!! Im going to SCREAMMMMM!!!!!
This film is everything
I hate about Hollywood at the moment, why remake just make RoboCop
4! Terribly written, drivel performances from Joel Kinnerman and Abbie
Cornish as Mr & Mrs Murphy. Gary Oldman, Micheal Keaton blatantly
going through the motions and picking up there paychecks!
If you want to watch
RoboBland – please carry on but if you want to watch RoboCop, then
watch RoboCop not this watered down, polished up 12A embarrassment of
a film – watch the 1987 film that is and always will be ROBOCOP!
In fact don't waste your cash on a cinema ticket, buy this instead: RoboCop Directors Cut 1987
