RoboCop, from Orion Pictures, marked director Paul Verhoeven's (Flesh + Blood) Hollywood debut and instantly became an enduring sci-fi/action classic when it landed in theaters in the summer of 1987. Verhoeven's peerlessly exciting and kinetic visuals were matched by a sharp script, iconic cast and exceptional special effects by Rob Bottin (The Thing) and Phil Tippett (The Empire Strikes Back). The film takes place in Detroit in the not-too-distant future. Heroic cop Alex Murphy (Peter Weller, The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai) is gunned down in the line of duty, only to be resurrected as RoboCop - a cybernetic mix of spare human parts and Motor City steel, and the latest defense against crime designed by the all-powerful OCP Corporation. As RoboCop's memories of his former life as Murphy resurface, only his ex-partner (Nancy Allen, Dressed To Kill) stands beside him to fight against the vicious thugs responsible for his death, as well as a nefarious top-level OCP executive orchestrating the chaos from above. Unsurpassably thrilling, unexpectedly moving and unforgettably hilarious in equal measure, the future of law enforcement is back in a definitive 4K UHD Blu-ray presentation packed with hours of bonus features and exclusive collectable packaging.

[Arrow Video's] release of RoboCop gives the film plenty of added value with a bevy of bonus materials and a great transfer... This is about as definitive as RoboCop gets on home video. Highly recommended.

This gnarly, amazing, quasi-hypocritical action thriller has been outfitted with an improved transfer and a superb bounty of extras. I'd buy that for a dollar.

This film needs no introduction. It is an absolute masterpiece, one of the best-paced action films ever. It'sendlessly quotable, darkly humorous, satirically brilliant… [the Arrow 4k] is loaded with features, it looks fantastc in 4K, the sound is excellent and I love the steelbook

Paul Verhoven’s masterpiece ROBOCOP makes its 4K UHD disc with Dolby Vision Encoding for BOTH CUTS OF THE FILM. Arrow Video’s upgrade makes all the right moves making this one of the best releases of 2022

     —A.W. Kautzer, The Movie Isle

Excessively violent yet also refreshingly satirical, RoboCop endures as a modern classic of sci-fi cinema.

Let's get right to the point: This new RoboCop boxed set gets my highest recommendation. For starters, director Paul Verhoeven's cheeky tale of a crimefighting cyborg is still thrilling, still funny, and still uniquely satisfying.

"RoboCop" is a film well worth watching and rewatching. And the Arrow UHD version is the best way to experience it.
