“Can you do that, Dad?” That line gets me crying every time. When I was a boy, it was mainly the music in this scene that got to me. Even then, the sadness of Murphy’s character was conveyed to one who didn’t understand the complexities of life. Fast forward to when I’m older, and that moment when he remembers his son made me realize that Murphy has TRULY lost everything. Robocop is a genuine masterpiece.
@teh one same it's only sciene that tells us that were attracted to women. All the love and this and that is all extra. At the basic level it's just two animals screwing in the woods.
yes, associative memory is very powerful. it's way deep inside you. they tried to erase every piece of humanity in him, this is very profound and why this is a masterpiece
reminds me of that one time I passed by the old summer house that my grandad (widowed) bought when he retired. It was sold soon after his death and I had spent most of my childhood summers there. I didn't have the energy or guts to knock on the door and ask for a quick tour to relive old memories (it would have been ackward-random, the new owners might have been jerks for all I knew, and I didn't have anything on me to prove that my grandad lived there to begin with) but damn, the memories hit me hard that day anyway.
One of the best films ever made, the sadness, the one liners, special effects, the gore, comedy, revenge, badass villains, script, cast, direction, shootouts, everything! 80s classic for sure whats still the dogs bollocks to this day, completely pisses all over the remake.
+Harry Callahan The remake is not so bad if you watch it as its own movie. I actually liked it and thought that it was done well. If you end up comparing it to the original and dislike it for everything that is different than in the first film, of course it'll be bad. You watch each film in its own right as a separate motion picture.
Harry Callahan oh yes siiiir..Most Definitely..in My Opinion...2 Was Real Good...But they Should Have went into More Depth About his Son An Wife..An More Bout Caine..Of Course that would have Made the Movie Long But Hey it probably would have been Worth it💪
Thank you Basil Poledouris for this beautiful piece of music. You gave a heart to the movie with this incredible music. You will NEVER be forgotten. RIP
@@davidvanvranken1595 What's the address if I can inquire? I'd like to google maps it. It's interesting that it was filmed in Dallas, but was supposed to be Detroit.
Love how Weller played this role from a theater point of view. As he sees his lost family throughout his empty house you can see the human and robotics side of RoboCop fighting each other. For me, this movie is perfect in every way.
Indeed. Even though we cannot see behind the helmet. Weller emotions from his mouth and his movements as his memories begin to flashback into his mind are truly heartbreaking. Peter Weller and Paul Verhoven was making Science-Fiction history when they did Robocop.
Emmanuel Williams Add to that seeing his wife and son only through his flashbacks with a beautiful and sad score "Home" by the great Basil Poldouris really hit me. R.I.P. Basil.
The story of a human being becoming the product of a corporation. Which is basically some sort of slavery or prostitution. Then struggling to reclaim his lost humanity...
Well, this and his son watching the superhero cop TV show, seeing the main hero twirling his gun and turning to his father asking "can you do that, dad?". Then you remember Murphy actually did learn to twirl the gun as well. Because he loved his son, because he was his personal hero and didn't want to disappoint him.
"World Class Husband" on a broken coffee mug, left alone on the table. My god this movie has so many awesome layers, it just kicks ass and never stops.
He feels like a ghost trapped in a metal shell. Family gone....One of the few movies scenes that I can shed a tear for. You can really feel his loss through acting(in a suit) and music. Just brilliant.
Love how the quintessential perfect loving family is paralleled next to the sterility and mock charming warmth of the real estate salesman. So many different layers and subtle themes to this movie; I could watch it a thousand times and never get tired of it.
@DireAxis Oh, yes. And the "can you do that, dad?" always makes me tear up. Yes Dad can, and it's the only thing he never fully forgot for even the first moment he became Robocop. And the "World Class Husband" mug that's broken. And the faces Peter Weller makes in the most emotional memories, like the wife yelling "I really got to tell you something!! >:( ....I love you :3".
Watching this my entire life and I never realized that his footsteps become normal instead of the ominous DOOM DOOM DOOM footsteps once he's in his memories inside the house. Like his robotic self melts away and he's becoming more human. God damn this movie has something new every time I watch it!
It's this single sequence that elevates Robocop above every other genre action movie and into the realm of the greatest movies ever made. One of the most deeply moving scenes in all of cinema, and so imaginatively filmed, acted, scored, written.
The music with flashbacks and even robocop's body language just delivers the feeling of loss you can relate. He lost his family and can do nothing but exact revenge.
But in the scene Robocop, he walks into his empty home and looks at every corner, the ghosts. I think its the most powerful scene in a movie. very haunting, and dreaming about that. wake up and have a cup of tea!
bill bixby I will admit the one thing I did feel sorry for him about in the remake was when he was taken apart and asked to see himself. That scene wasn't bloody but horrifying in its own way despite being PG-13
It isn't a stretch IMO, to call the 'Home' scene one of the most significant achievements in modern cinema. This is a film has more heart in this one scene, than many films do in their entirety. The drop at 1:37 is just timeless. All the people involved should be immensely proud of themselves.
This film and this scene (Among others) left a mark on me when i was younger, forever changed how I looked at films in general. I'm still learning as much as I can but I owe this film and those involved with helping me realize, some of the art behind the moving pictures.
This always gets me crying because Murphy had a family and son he really loved and tried to be a hero for his son but ever since he was killed and turned to robocop his family think he's dead but Murphy soon remembers who he was and we all kinda feel bad for him that he lost everything he ever loved
Actually, Murphy just feels them but can't remember them...

@@darockk but everytime they push him a little further he loses some of his humanity. Compare the character just after he becomes Robocop and at the end of the movie. I think the big problem with the reboot was the PG-13.
It's all summed up by the punch in the end through the screen. The wave of emotion, nostalgia, regret, longing. Culminates in the anger and realisation... "Okay now... Enough..." As he drives his fist through the screen. This film will always be touted as a favourite and had a profound emotional effect on me in my youth.
His journey towards rediscovering his humanity reaches both it's low point and high point here: he remembers he's human, but he also remembers what he lost. So sad, but part of being human is experiencing pain.
@@jameszack7158 Yeah, and OCP screwed him up as well by owning his corpse and trying desperately to make him their own RoboPet, but came back to bite them including Clarence Boddicker in their Heroin Nuking Corporate-Money Grubbing asses.
1:37 the music is almost enough to make you cry. Those bastards took him away from his family. What makes it even more depressing is the scene right after this in the nightclub. Someone lost a husband and a father and leon nash is without a care in the world. It's a sad scene and a brilliant film
Paul Verhoeven's genius is that Robocop wasn't just flippant humor and over-the-top violence--it had a real emotional core to the character and character arc that made you connect to a robotic hero.
@EAT THIS YOU GRAVY SUCKING DOG First off, don't knock CGI as the reason. Knock that it's bad CGI. Two, IDGAF if it is CGI, the man was literally reduced to nothing but a hand, head, lungs and a heart. That would scare the shit out of anyone if they saw that even if they hate the movie.
I saw this movie for the first time when I was about 8 years old. I couldn't understand this scene, why sometimes he sees his family, sometimes he doesn't. Now this is probably one of the saddest scenes in the whole movie.
This movie must become as a evergreen block buster movie of all time.But i dont know why it doesn't receive that much positive reviews from the people and from the critics.A big revolutionary movie that machine also gets human feelings about his family.A big hats off to this movie
This is the ONE CRUCIAL thing that the remake left out which to me made it fail. Murphy struggling to regain his memories and his humanity along with the fact that his wife and son believing that he is dead and have moved on made him highly tragic and the audience sympathized with him. This coupled with the fact that OCP basically orchestrated this from the start by transferring officers into higher crime areas in hopes one would be killed to use for the Robocop Program (EXACTLY what happened to Murphy when he went from Metro South to West unexplicably) and all of the other decisions they'd made to the police force showed how truly vile and sadistic they actually were.
This just reminds audience that it is meant to be a very sad movie. There was no happy ending, even at the end for Murphy. He was forced to be a robot.
Robocop 1 was a very serious film, (in my opinion) because it tells a theme of having human emotions, even if you were turned into a machine. The way Murphy still contains some of his memories of being a father and having a personal life of his own gives it the best example of how he's still the Murphy he was back then before he was killed. But that's just me.
The new movie could have been able to top this amazing scene, could have had a version of Alex Murphy who tugged at the heart strings even more. This Murphy was a machine who found out he was a man, the new version was a man trying to stop himself from becoming a machine. If they did something interesting with it, did something that showed the struggle Murphy had to hold onto his humanity when all that was left that was human was just a few lumps of flesh, the movie could have been powerful. There was even glimmers of it, the tragedy and everything like when Murphy was talking to his family while training. But the people who made it just didn't really do anything with it. Also no villain anywhere close to as cool as Boddicker.
This is what the remake was missing. the main character walking through what used to be his house having flashbacks of what used to be his life, slowly waking up to the realization of what he has lost. instead we just keep him looking down at his own corpse.
That's the problem!I'm not a gore hound,but the original Robocop had that visceral effect that made you care when Alex Murphy goes down,at the beginning. In the remake,It's so quick and clean,that It doesn't leave a lasting impression. One scene that I found brillant though was the ''Show me'' scene:The one where they took him appart slowly until there's nothing left but a frail sac of lungs with a throat and a head.That one,even with pg13 standard,was really well done.
Exactly! This is the only "Robocop" I can watch over and over. The sequels are not even worth a second look. I myself never even bothered to look at the remake.
this scene always makes me as much shiver ... the impression of seeing my childhood again or as if I returned to places that I have already lived ... damn movie does prevent the 80s 90 the best!
First time I saw this movie, I was young, so I only saw Murphy's emotions in this scene. Now that I'm older, I've come to realize that this scene tells two stories. One is about Murphy trying to piece together his memories. The other is about the raw grief of his family, as told by the state of the house. They left in a hurry. Smashed or burnt precious mementos instead of taking them. Didn't bother to take all the furniture, even. It makes you wonder what happened. Why does there seem to be an edge of rage to it? I really wish the sequels explored this more.
I honestly think that Robocop did a great job touching upon a lot of the cyberpunk themes that were also in Blade Runner. The loss of humanity in the face of advanced technology.
Finally glad to see a version of this scene uploaded with the smash cut into the club scene. It's so important to the film's pacing to convey that Robocop is in for an arrest, but Murphy's out for some answers.
My favorite part of the scene is when Robocop realizes he's Murphy and then the movements by Peter Weller as Robocop when he punches the screen. LOVE THIS FILM!
A true classic. The real genius was to tell a story so dehumanizing with the sci-fi lens, as if telling about a creature half man, half robot, who can shoot damn good and is super strong was the point. The loneliness of the character in this scene is painful.
"Can you do that, dad? :D". It makes Robocop doing that legendary twirl all the more sad and tragic, he's still trying to just be a great father and to impress his son as a machine.
RIP to all law enforcement who sacrificed there own lives, left kids wives and there brand new homes in including my brother Who died in the line of duty and who loved this scene and movie, just yesterday we were kid brothers watching it in the 80s. RIP Hero my brother aka "Murph"
This is easily my favourite scene in RoboCop just brilliantly filmed and well thought out, it simple but impactful, suttle but emotional, the character development you feel emotional for Murphy you acterally cared for him and very well acted by Peter Weller and the wife and kid, and the music is just perfect very well blended together with the emotions I love this scene
I'll admit that I got a little teary-eyed when seeing this again. After looking at the "Everything wrong with..." vid for this, I do have to concur though, the family DOES look a little too happy.
It suck that at the end Murphy never had a happy ending. He saw his wife again and pretended he was just a hollow husk of her husband. He continued being robocop at the end.
I really love this part of the movie--this is what makes Robocop who he is. That lingering human sensation in the back of his programming software. And I love how he loses his family in a tragic way--without brutally murdering or maiming them. It's almost worse, because he can never go back to them as he is now. ROBOCOP RULES!!! GREAT FILM!
All of my favorite movies came from the 80s. 1987 was a particularly good year, which included the release of this movie and Predator. But what can you expect to follow up an awesome movie like Aliens in ‘86, which was trying to dethrone the sci-if mega-hit Terminator released in ‘84 :)
“Can you do that, Dad?”
That line gets me crying every time. When I was a boy, it was mainly the music in this scene that got to me. Even then, the sadness of Murphy’s character was conveyed to one who didn’t understand the complexities of life. Fast forward to when I’m older, and that moment when he remembers his son made me realize that Murphy has TRULY lost everything. Robocop is a genuine masterpiece.
A family man: that's the best thing any man can be! He lost everythg had every right to go after them
Exactly the same here 👍
He probably lost his dick too
This scene is so fast and simple. But you feel what Robocop feels. Very Great.
I feel like the music is really crucial in conveying what Robo is experiencing!
an emotional human part still exist in him
seguro que si
I love this movie. When he reaches for his wife. He first thinks she's dead, nanosecond later he realizes HE's dead. Frankenstein with corporate tech

Damn, i love this movie so much.
First time I saw this movie, I was young, so I only saw Murphy's emotions in this scene. Now that I'm older, I've come to realize that this scene tells two stories. One is about Murphy trying to piece together his memories. The other is about the raw grief of his family, as told by the state of the house. They left in a hurry. Smashed or burnt precious mementos instead of taking them. Didn't bother to take all the furniture, even. It makes you wonder what happened. Why does there seem to be an edge of rage to it? I really wish the sequels explored this more.
A masterpiece, fuck that new movie.
It's embarrassing how they were arrogant enough to think they could top or match this movie's perfection!
new one remake crap 2014 u mean? thats a mistake ever done in Hollywood
Masterpiece
It breaks my heart.
0:10 That's you, Robocop. That's you! You're handsome. You're so handsome.
I honestly think that Robocop did a great job touching upon a lot of the cyberpunk themes that were also in Blade Runner. The loss of humanity in the face of advanced technology.
Finally glad to see a version of this scene uploaded with the smash cut into the club scene. It's so important to the film's pacing to convey that Robocop is in for an arrest, but Murphy's out for some answers.
One of the best scenes in this movie. Even today i get goosebumps and want to cry.
My favorite part of the scene is when Robocop realizes he's Murphy and then the movements by Peter Weller as Robocop when he punches the screen. LOVE THIS FILM!
reminds me of childhood .
I get chills when the music kicks in as he starts pacing down the hallway to smash the t.v
A true classic. The real genius was to tell a story so dehumanizing with the sci-fi lens, as if telling about a creature half man, half robot, who can shoot damn good and is super strong was the point. The loneliness of the character in this scene is painful.
this is one of the most powerful scenes in sifi movie history! heart breaking!
So many powerful emotions communicated to the audience in only 3 minutes... brilliant
great and emotional escene!
"Can you do that, dad? :D". It makes Robocop doing that legendary twirl all the more sad and tragic, he's still trying to just be a great father and to impress his son as a machine.
2:52....that walk shows the anger & rage
I like how the music gives you the feeling of sadness mixed with rage
RIP to all law enforcement who sacrificed there own lives, left kids wives and there brand new homes in including my brother Who died in the line of duty and who loved this scene and movie, just yesterday we were kid brothers watching it in the 80s. RIP Hero my brother aka "Murph"
This is easily my favourite scene in RoboCop just brilliantly filmed and well thought out, it simple but impactful, suttle but emotional, the character development you feel emotional for Murphy you acterally cared for him and very well acted by Peter Weller and the wife and kid, and the music is just perfect very well blended together with the emotions I love this scene
Excellent acting! By the end you’re like……uh oh! He’s pissed!
I'll admit that I got a little teary-eyed when seeing this again. After looking at the "Everything wrong with..." vid for this, I do have to concur though, the family DOES look a little too happy.
VicenzoV A very simple but good idea actually...I'll probably be doing the same from now on too! lol
It suck that at the end Murphy never had a happy ending. He saw his wife again and pretended he was just a hollow husk of her husband. He continued being robocop at the end.
In RoboCop: Prime Directives, James Murphy finds out the truth and they reunite.
Beautiful scene, could not have been done better. I keep going back to watch it
a history ever made in Hollywood though this movie
Seeing his wife so eager to tell him I love you is sooo beautiful. Its so important
This scene is tragic & heartbreaking because he finally realized that there is no comming back.....he is now a robot
This scene makes me very sad for what they have done to Alex Murphy. I fucking love this movie.
This was so sad and in my opinion made the movie a classic. You felt for Murphy!
On my top #5 movies ever. A masterpiece
I really love this part of the movie--this is what makes Robocop who he is. That lingering human sensation in the back of his programming software.
And I love how he loses his family in a tragic way--without brutally murdering or maiming them. It's almost worse, because he can never go back to them as he is now. ROBOCOP RULES!!! GREAT FILM!
That scene always got me.. they were giving away his life.. like a ghost, he wondered in his past life.
2:50 me on the way to tell the McDonalds employee they got my order wrong
All of my favorite movies came from the 80s. 1987 was a particularly good year, which included the release of this movie and Predator. But what can you expect to follow up an awesome movie like Aliens in ‘86, which was trying to dethrone the sci-if mega-hit Terminator released in ‘84 :)
This film is a masterpiece
Love that 80s architecture
