Better off giving Robocop another viewing

Rating: 3/10 (31 December 2008)

Another poster has said it already: this is Robocop in 2008, without the humor or the humanity.
I am not the target audience for this kind of movie so there is no point in detailing all the points where it fell down for me. I hope it brings in lots of money for the studio and I'm sure it will do well on that front.
I was pleasantly surprised by Robert Downey's performance. He looks great and manages to convey the right mix of arrogance and boyish (self) absorption. Gwyneth Paltrow has never looked so fine.
If you're thinking about watching this and haven't seen Robocop yet, please go rent that instead.
