Somewhat felt this with RoboCop - it’s referenced quite a bit in discussions but to me, the plot felt incredibly thin and I’m surprised it hasn’t been criticised more for this.
To me, it came down to cop gets brutally executed, revived by a dystopian tech company as a robot following commands, it starts remembering who it was in its prior life and swears revenge against its murderers, all the while he falls in love with his partner cop despite having a wife in his previous life who moved on after his death.
I get the dystopian undertones of it, but it all just felt incredibly cheesy to me.
