銀幕再現：鐵甲威龍（導演版）、宇宙威龍

保羅韋浩雲離經有道，進軍荷里活後，構思出別開生面的科幻片《鐵甲威龍》及《宇宙威龍》。《宇宙威龍》有阿諾舒華辛力加令人眼前一亮的演出，不只探討記憶與身份，甚至反思到電影的本質。更可能是美國科幻小說家Philip K. Dick作品改編電影最成功的一次，與《2020》互相輝映。

《鐵甲威龍》的鐵甲人構思比2008年的《鐵甲奇俠》早了二十年，主題卻恰恰相反，對階級剝削的洞悉和政商勾結的批判，比後者進步得多，更引入宗教象徵，復活再生，水上行走，如基督再臨的意象。是次放映導演版，影迷切勿錯過。

Back to the Screen: ROBOCOP (Director's Cut) and TOTAL RECALL

Upon arriving in Hollywood, Dutch provocateur Paul Verhoeven made two sci-fi films that shook the world. TOTAL RECALL is a mind-bending futuristic satire that challenged notions of dreams, memories and identity, as well as the nature of cinema. It is widely regarded as one of the best adaptations of Philip K. Dick’s novels that has ever put on screen, on par with Ridley Scott’s BLADE RUNNER.

20 years before IRON MAN was made, Verhoeven turned a mindless action flick of similar premise into ROBOCOP, a cautionary sci-fi thriller that uses ultra-violence to disguise its satire of American politics and culture, exposes the problems of police corruption and corporate greed, with a heavy dose of religious allegory. ROBOCOP will be presented in its Director’s Cut. Don’t miss this chance to catch it on the big screen.
