Reviews

Variety - Unnamed
Robocop is as tightly worked as a film can be, not a moment or line wasted.
88
TV Guide Magazine - Unnamed
A first-rate production full of nonstop action and inventive special effects but what truly makes Robocop spellbinding is a superior script.
80
Empire - Unnamed
It was this love of mayhem combined with a biting comic attack on neo-fascist corporatism - most notably seen in the TV ads for products like the apocalyptic board game Nuke 'Em - which helped raise Robocop above the common sci-fi herd.
80
Washington Post - Unnamed
Robocop is one weird and entertaining hybrid of camp and sci-fi shoot-'em-up.
75
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
Robocop is a thriller with a difference.
