Robocop

The original Robocop from 1987 is one of my all-time favorite movies. I still love watching this movie today. I first saw it at a very young age. So young that I shouldn't have even been watching it yet. But because of this, the version I saw the most was an edited for network TV version that was video taped. The movie has become a classic in not just the action film genre, but the sci-fi genre as well. Robocop 2 was okay. Robocop 3 was just terrible.

I loved Robocop as a kid. I haven't really watched it since...wonder how well it holds up.

I've recently watched the first movie. It holds up well considering the advancements in production tech- the satirical bent of the movie is pretty much timeless on its own. About the only thing that looks "dated" is the bad eighties hairstyles.

I loved it too...the scene of the man who fell in acid and the car hitting him stuck in my head for years on re-play...For it kid it looked so real, but then I was also a kid with a very active imagination.
