Just wonderful. It’s probably an almost perfect film, for what it is.
YES.
YES YES YES. RoboCop is one of the best films ever made (and I’m not joking or using hyperbole there)

RoboCop 2 (1990) – C+
There are some things that I like in it, but generally isn’t very good in my opinion. I guess the story it told just wasn’t the story I wanted to hear. Definitely not in my personal canon 😛.
There’s some really great stuff in RoboCop 2. It’s nowhere near as brilliant as the first film, but all the bits involving RoboCop’s new directives are gold.

Phantom lady (1944)
I’ve recently been on a bit of a film noir kick and managed across this one. Story is fairly alright, and the reveal of the villain doesn’t really make a whole lot of sense but the film’s style is what it has going for it. Plus it’s nice to see a film noir with a female protagonist for a change.
