"I don't know, I didn't find Robocop so bad.
– DIEGO-209 ACTIVE. Pipe detection: confirmed. Target locked.
– But what… turn it off, you can see that your thing is messing up!
– Oh no, hey, Berthier, you're the one who's joking: take back what you just said!
– NEVER! The film was quite beautiful and also offered an original story…
– DIEGO-209 in COMBAT MODE: Citizens, please move aside.

The board of directors disperses like a flock of birds, leaving poor Berthier alone job function email database facing the machine. He staggers a little, challenging the metal monster with his gaze.

– No! Besides, there's Gary Oldman in it, that's a sign of quality-
– OPENING FIRE.

And in a hell of explosions and the clinking of bullet casings, the world of cinema loses a man of bad taste.

Did our man deserve such a fate? Is Robocop a good adaptation... pfff, sorry, sorry. In short, can this film be watched without getting depressed in the process?

Spoilers, my dears!


The poster: and when we run out of ideas, we buy licenses. I see.
It all begins as a TV presenter makes throaty noises resembling Ardennes dialect to prepare to begin his live show. And this presenter isn't just anyone: it's Master Windu, and his show is The Master Windu Show. This film gets off to a very auspicious start.

So what is the Master Windu Show? Well, it's a show with a vaguely ultra-conservative focus that talks about the hot topic of the moment: security. Because, in fact, the Omnicorp company, or OCP for short, has developed a range of very practical robots: the ED-209, large bipod robots, and the EM-208, armored humanoids, capable of bringing security to everyone with great efficiency. They are deployed all over the world and work wonders, except... in the United States, where that old rascal Senator Dreyfus (yes, you couldn't make it up) passed a law banning robots from making the law because robots are rubbish, they crash, they leak oil everywhere and they ask you if you want to install iTunes every 20 minutes.

So crime is rampant in hamburger country, as Master Windu shows us what's going on in Tehran, where he calls a live broadcast crew and the army has deployed these jewels.

The result is simple: soldiers, journalists, and others simply wear a special red bracelet, and the robots do everything they can to protect them. So they walk around them, scanning civilians for weapons, but... while the camera in Tehran is broadcasting live news to the Master Windu Show, a gang of nasty terrorists attacks! And loaded with explosives, they jump on and with the robots! The latter, devilishly efficient, get rid of most of the bad guys without too much injury, but the situation is a little less funky when the son of one of the terrorists, a bit of an idiot, goes out into the street to attack an ED-209 robot... with a kitchen knife.
