I didn't realise how violent this was. so fucking good tho
The movie was originally given an X rating by the MPAA in 1987 (The rating which replaced X, NC-17, did not yet exist). To satisfy the requirements of the ratings board, Verhoeven trimmed blood and gore from the most violent scenes in the movie, including the malfunctioning of ED-209, Murphy's execution (where his entire right arm is severed by a shotgun blast and a final overhead shot of Lewis sobbing over Murphy on the blood-soaked floor), and the final battle with Clarence Boddicker. Verhoeven also added humorous commercials throughout the news broadcasts to lighten the mood and distract from the violent aspects of the movie. The film was re-evaluated and given an R rating

goddamn mpaa
