In 2028, OmniCorp is at the center of robot technology. While its drones have long been used by the military overseas, their use is forbidden in American law enforcement. However, OmniCorp gets a golden opportunity to crack that market when Detroit cop Alex Murphy is critically injured in the line of duty. By transforming Murphy into a cyborg, OmniCorp executives hope to rake in billions for their shareholders, but they forget one thing: There's still a man inside the machine.

Critics Consensus

While it's far better than it could have been, José Padilha's RoboCop remake fails to offer a significant improvement over the original.

2.0/5

[A]fter an opening sequence as promising as the one here, it needs at least an attempted follow-through, not the jumble of confused ideas and time-wasting effects that take up the bulk of the film.

Surveying the peculiar array of 1980s retreads clustered into release this week, I'm reminded of Marty McFly in Back to the Future Part II, traveling forward in time 30 years to discover that everything is still the same, only worse.

3/5

The Brazilian director José Padilha may be working for a Hollywood studio but he doesn't temper his critique of American imperialism, big business and political corruption.

'Robocop' is a mash of hi-fi philosophy conveniently light on resolution.

There are two ways to approach the 2014 RoboCop, which I wouldn’t buy for a dollar even on 4K.

5/5

What could have been a depressing assault on the childhood of those who grew up in the 1980s was instead one of the best action-sci-fi movies since Minority Report over a decade earlier.

It deply disappoints me how many people seem to not have given this movie a chance! It does what a remake should do: exploit the premisse of the original, but taking it in new ways and dealing with new ideas. It's much less of a satire than the original, not it's inteligent, well-acted and deals with very interesting and pertinent concepts.

Bloodless, unnecessary reboot of the 1987 classic

A slap to the face to one of the best action movies of all time. It takes everything that sets the original apart from it's peers and pisses on it for a run of the mill CG mess designed for preteen boys and nothing more. Not terrible, but a major disservice to the source material.

While it's not perfect, I think it receives more criticism than it deserves.

The result of the absent of idea and a great hungry for money.

The CGI, acting and plot all contribute to the dawning realism of this sci-fi altercation. Whilst it could've been better scripted, the overall impact the movie leaves opens questions concerning morality and social advancements, and how much people are willing to lose or gain.
