RoboCop's 4K UHD Blu-ray showcases a noticeable upgrade from its previous HD release, with a new 4K remaster from the original digital intermediate. The HEVC H.265 encode delivers strong detail in textures, enhanced color grading, and deep black levels, although minor issues like mild aliasing are present. Dolby Vision HDR enhances contrast and color vibrancy, making this release a solid improvement.

Audio: 93

The 5.1 DTS-HD MA mix for RoboCop delivers an engaging and action-packed audio experience, showcasing clear dialogue, robust low-end rumbles, and immersive surround effects with flawless directionality and panning, maintaining high clarity and room penetration throughout explosive sequences and quieter moments alike.

Extra: 56

The UHD edition retains the same supplemental content as the previous Blu-ray, offering an in-depth examination of themes, production design, weaponry, and suit construction but features no new additions. While informative, the extras like deleted scenes, faux commercials, and trailers are mostly standard fare without major insights.

Movie: 60

RoboCop (2014) presents a polished examination of modern socio-political fears, featuring sophisticated CGI and strong performances from Michael Keaton and Gary Oldman. However, it misses the satirical edge and visceral impact of the 1987 original, resulting in a less engaging, overly serious remake.
