Robocop (The Original One from 1987).
I've watched the movie back in 1987 when my friend's dad rented it in VHS and was blown away by the effects (which many of the younger ones will have to look past nowadays), the absurdly good make-up (even for today's standards) and mainly how you root for him all the way while being a 12 YO kid. Since then I have watched this movie again almost once every year and there are sooooo many things in it that you are always discovering, especially the political side of it that is impossible for a kid to understand. Also, the pace is absolutely fantastic and Paul Verhoeven is one of the most talented directors out there (he went on to shoot Total Recall later with Schwarzenegger). Add to all of it the soundtrack from Basil Poledouris and you have what is, to me, the second best science fiction movie ever from Hollywood (the best being 2001 - A Space Odissey).
