Movie of the week

Ok ive seen some pretty good flicks of late - the fantastic - Last King of Scotland, the arthouse (read sex people film) Shortbus and the slightly disappointing but funny all the same For Your Consideration. But after a few beers on the weekend, there was no film I wanted to watch more than - Robocop.

Let me tell you, it was an absoute ripper. It ruled in the 80s, and it still rules now - he's a cop thats been transformed into an invincible crime fighting robot in the crazy late 1990s world of New Detroit! What could possibly be cooler? Ok yes Commando still ranks highly - but I fully recomend re-visiting Robocop - it will blow your mind!

Did I mention he gets transformed into a robot??

Brilliant film made in the true spirit of the period. Much better than the crap action films that are around today. He was the original gangstar
