Robocop is an action science film that came out in the year 1987. It is a movie about a Detroit police officer who is brought back to life and made as a highly efficient cyborg crime fighter. The police are owned by a corporation and they are often looking to come up with effective solutions to make the city a better place to live as well as maximize profits. The movie spawned two more sequels and is among the more popular action films.

In a futuristic Detroit the crime rate is rampant. The police are overworked and are desperately looking to keep crime under control. They are controlled by a major corporation and therefore are limited by the resources that they are given. One day an officer named Murphy is sent to pursue a gang of criminals. He follows them into a warehouse and is brutally gunned down by them. Shortly after his corpse is retrieved he is sent to the corporation to be constructed into a cyborg known as Robocop. The Robocop is sent out to go on patrol. During his patrol he stops a convenience store robbery, a mugging/rape and also stops a gas station robbery. During this robbery he gets the identity of the robber and finds out that it was one of the men who killed him while he was human. Over the course of the film, Robocop is looking to eliminate the gang of criminals who killed his human form while exploring his past. At the same time the corporation forms an alliance with the gang of criminals and both look to eliminate Robocop. The criminal gang gets highly specialized weapons in order to destroy Robocop. They then begin their pursuit in finding him. In the end Robocop and his partner retreat to old Detroit to regroup and get to safety. However the gang finds them and a final standoff takes place. Robocop eliminates the rest of the criminal gang and also the unscrupulous executive who looked to shut him down.
