Rating: Summary: Robocop! Review: The Robocop movies are awesome! I love "Robocop", "Robocop 2", and "Robocop 3"! These are three amazing films! This is a must have DVD collection! I love these movies so much! This is a must buy DVD set that everyone should own!
Rating: Summary: Prime Directives Review: This is the Robocop Trilogy including all three action packed instalments. Of course the original Robocop is the only one that really makes it a point to comment on society the other 2 are still entertaining. Although this boxed set only includes special features for Robocop 1 and only trailers for 2 and 3 it's the only way to get the "Extended Cut" of Robocop, which contains 1 minute of extra gore I beleive. So, the price is right, and this is worth the purchase for any scifi/action fan.
Rating: Summary: Anamorphic sequels....finally! Review: What I find disturbing on Amazon.com and most other DVD sites is the lack of information about a release's format. All three ROBOCOP films are finally in Anamorphic Widescreen and Dolby Digital 5.1. This is the first time Robo 2 and 3 get anamorphic releases, so for me, this alone was worth the cost, since I already owned the definitive Criterion Robocop. This is a slightly better release, however, in that it has some featurettes and trailers. It's great to finally watch Robo 2 (and the slightly sillier Robo 3) in Anamorphic Widescreen on my 65" HDTV, and in DD 5.1! While Robo 1 is still the best of the three, by far, don't discount Robo 2 and 3 for they have their moments too.
Rating: Summary: Dead Or Alive, You're Coming With Me... On DVD! Review: When Robocop was release in Malaysia, it was a hit. I enjoyed the movie (and at that time, I don't even know who is Paul Verhoeven) a lot. Title maybe corny, but what makes a hit is the story involve and the violence.Years later, two sequels came (Robocop 2 was a more action packed oriented without direction rather than the 1st movie while Robocop 3 was an excuse of making a sequel of the sequel) by and I have watched both with dissapointment. And I never thought the movie was written what used to be my favorite comic book writer Frank Miller. Dissapointment it is. Well, comes the DVD Robocop Trilogy set. And yes, I bought it with curious reasons because its cheap. After viewing the classic, this is one edition that you have to get because you can't find a Director's Cut version of 2 scenes that was editted out because its VERY VIOLENT. Plus the 4 deleted scenes, 3 featurettes, storyboards & more is what gives the classic worth paying for, even though Robocop 2 & 3 suck. But to buy all 3 together with the price that is given? I'll buy that for a dollar... well, if only it is for a dollar. Only for the fun of enjoying the cult hit series.
