Day 49 - Robocop (American)

RoboCop (2014) Poster
 
"In 2028 Detroit, when Alex Murphy - a loving husband, father and good cop - is critically injured in the line of duty, the multinational conglomerate OmniCorp sees their chance for a part-man, part-robot police officer."
 
This film is hard to critique as I do like the direction at times but other times its completely bad. I do like the darker feel of this movie as it fits the time better than trying to copy the comedy present in the original film. I didn't really like the main actor as he really didn't portray the struggle of this character that well. Something that ignored me was the fact that Alex Murphy's wife didn't play a bigger role and was only used when it was absolutely necessary. Even with an all star cast this movie really didn't make that good of an impression with me. If you are a fan of the original then understand they took a different approach and don't base your criticism on how the new Robocop strayed so far what was the original was.
 
2/5
