Dave, Marcus, and Colin take on RoboCop, Paul Verhoeven’s first American film—a brutal, satirical, and wildly entertaining sci-fi classic. Dave enjoys it a bit more than Colin and Marcus, but they all agree it’s got plenty to love.
They break down the film’s sharp satire, striking visuals, and, of course, its signature over-the-top violence. Peter Weller’s precise, robotic physicality gets well-deserved praise, as does ED-209, the ultimate corporate murder machine—ruthless, imposing, and hilariously terrible at stairs.
So stop what you’re doing and listen to this episode. You have fifteen seconds to comply!
