Paul Verhoeven directs this classic sci-fi action feature starring Peter Weller. Set in the near future, Detroits soaring crime rate is unsuccessfully policed by a corporation which plans to build a new city. When the new enforcement droid proves unworkable, a murdered cop (Weller) is wired into a computer-controlled titanium body and set to the task at hand. Unimpressed, Robocop seeks vengeance on all sides in this violent but often funny tale.
