Neither light nor shadow ....

I will start with the postitive:
Good Starring: Michael Keaton, Samuel L. Jackson, and Garry oldmann are aptly chosen as the cast and do a decent job. (I can not remember anyway the Garry Oldman has even done a really bad job.) Even Abbie Cornish whose only job is to look longingly stehts sad and is well taken.
There to lead actor Joel Chin Amann little to say, it is perhaps not the ideal person but no miscast, just something in between.
Why is that? I must confess I do not know it exactly. Somehow I have the figure Murphy as Robocop always imagined different from what is perhaps also to Peter Weller, I still have in mind from the first part, but somehow I suppose Joel Kinnaman the Robocop from not quite.
To the film itself:
The approach is a current connection to the political process in the United States (threats, Middle East conflict, gun control, etc ....) with aufzuhnehmen in this remake and that is why the story to actually form, was actually a good idea and can in my opinion, be regarded as a successful interpretation.
The appearance leaves nothing to be desired, the drones and robots, the streets of Detroit, etc ... see very well done out.
Why only 3 stars:
It is all very well but it is just that! "Good" no longer well
It lacks this dark mood that Robocop has always surrounded. Many things, such as how quickly Murphy me were resigning with his Schiksal easily handled to succinctly.

These are certainly a solid action flick with ordinary effects and an approach to the current situation of amerkianischen nation.
But who has never seen Robocop in my opinion is better served by RoboCop (1987).
