The future of American Justice has finally arrived, well only the first trailer for the remake Paul Verhoeven satirical sci-fi cult Robocop, Dead or Alive watch it now!
Joel Kinnaman stars as Detroit policeman Alex Murphy who is critically injured whilst on duty attempting to protect his city from the crime and corruption that is spreading through it. OmniCorp is at the centre of robot technology, winning the battle of overseas wars with their robot technology now they want help stem the crime within the cities with their new technology. Using half man half robot Omincop use Alex Murphy as the test subject, the man in the machine, the Robocop!
After much delay, criticism the first real chance to glimpse into José Padilha’s Robocop is finally here and see how well it’s going to standup to the 1987 version. The trailer does show the new version will provide many scenes homage to it’s source, even the infamous catchphrases ‘Dead Or Alive’ are in there too. On evidence of this trailer not everything is perfectly gelling together but it’s still a fairly convincing update with Padilha inserting his own new touches without loosing essence of this is Robocop! Hate me all you want I was never a fan of the original but there’s something in the new might just convince me to check this one out maybe it’s because it has Samuel L Jackson in it who loos like he’s going to deliver another Samuel Mother F*$kin! Jackson performance.
Still a long way to go until Robocop arrives 7th February 2014, the film co-stars Michael Keaton, Abbie Cornish, Samuel L. Jackson and Gary Oldman.
