I'll give props for the visual effects for the time and the Robocop design and Kurtwood Smith as the over the top bad guy. Otherwise the acting or lack of it is breath taking.
Okay who jacked bullseye account and left this ridiculous rating?

Iron Man 3 7/10

I didn't like the second film at all and I wasn't a huge fan of the Avengers after all of the hype it received. This then was a pleasant surprise to me. Not outstanding as a movie but it was enjoyable enough. A bit silly at times but I suppose that is to be expected and solid performances made up for it.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I agree, very overrated movie. the part about his taking a point blank bullet to the head and yet an ambulance arrives way later and he's still alive on the operating table not to mention the fact that he knew his partner for all over 3 hours then we're supposed to buy into their supposed bond later.

I enjoy part 2 a lot more, it had a lot more fun with itself where the first is a ludicrous movie that tries to take itself way too serious...plus Robo-Cain is friggin amazing where as Ed is a damn walking dumpster

Are you complaining about logic and plot holes for a movie called Robocop, the story of a man who becomes Robocop? If there's one thing I hate in my sci-fi/action schlock, it's plot holes and logic inconsistencies. When I go into a film called Robocop, it better have a flawless script and not be stupid.

This is 40 ~ 1/10

not a single laugh escaped from me the whole time. Watching the thing just made me sorta depressed. One of the worst movies I've seen in a long time

there's suspension of disbelief then there is plain stupid, and honestly for a movie as highly regarded as Robocop is yes I want it to be less stupid then it is, don't get me wrong it's a fun movie sure, but it's not a good movie

The level of acceptable stupid is subjective. I bet there's way dumber movies that you love and don't even think about how stupid they are. There are certain films that I just have to give a pass to. Robocop is one of them. It's not trying to be smart. It's as stupid as it wants to be and revels in it.
