ROBOCOP

Part Man, part machine....ALL HERO.

The Detroit of the future is riddled with crime and poverty (in the future, right?), and Omni Consumer Products has just announced that they've purchased the Detroit PD. Alex Murphy roams the streets as a tough-as-nails cop ready to serve and protect until (SPOILER ALERT!) he finds himself on the wrong end of a shotgun party. OCP owns Murphy's corpse and decides to take what's left of him to create their crime fighter of the future: ROBOCOP.

At first, everything is all fine and dandy; Robo is cleaning up the streets with his trusty partner Ann Lewis at his side until... Robocop starts having Alex Murphy's memories. What follows is one of the greatest action/social-satire/all-around badass movies I've ever seen. Come quietly or there will be... trouble. Get your prime directives in order, grab your tickets and prepare for an in-theater pyrotechnic experience that will BLOW YOUR MIND! Now I'd buy that for a dollar. (Greg MacLennan)
