So much average
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
In comparison to the Terminator in the story line plot / price / quality / fight with criminals / surgical operations of course the film series Robocop beats the headline series Terminator that does not bring anything meaningful to the bionics. The story about how easily the line of duty can become a cripple and how become the modern equivalent of bionics guardian of the law, taking revenge on the criminals. Impressive action, dramatic scenes, best ending, reflection in the real world, beautiful Detroit sceneries in the future. 11/10.
This lame sequel to the brilliant original masterpiece is yet another example of the law of diminishing returns. Also, unbelievably, it's aimed at CHLDREN, astonishing when you consider the level of mindless violence which filled the first two films. There's not a lot of originality this time around, and film is mainly a rehash of the first, with a plot about punk gangs and soldiers and rebels thrown in.Nancy Allen dies in the first half hour, probably because she didn't want to appear in this garbage. In the first film, when someone died, it meant something. Now we just don't care anymore. To add insult to injury, the lead actor has been changed, as Peter Weller was wise to decline his invitation to return. Robert Burke simply doesn't have the power of Weller, a much under-rated actor in my opinion. Burke's as wooden as a plank. The rest of the cast simply go through their clichéd, uninspired motions.The main disappoint for me was the lack of violence in this film. Let's face it, it was the violence that made the first film what it was. Now, a few people get shot and that's about it. Instead, there are lots of 'comic' scenes which fall flat and show that the material was wearing thin. Robocop was never designed to be a protector of children or a kindly saviour. He was a mean, vengeful cyborg cop who shot the baddies repeatedly and threw people through glass windows and stuff. To see him flying around in the sky in a jet pack is just a travesty, it really is. Degrading stuff.The special effects aren't that bad, apart from the aforementioned hugely unrealistic jet pack scenes, but there's nothing remarkable on offer here, little stop motion animation. The only good thing the film has to offer in the way of effects are the cyborg samurai, Japanese guys who are robots underneath. When their faces smash and stuff it's pretty interesting. Otherwise, it's time for this Robo-outing to visit the scrap heap. Or the realms of television, which is where in fact he went after this abomination.
Robocop saves the day once more. This time the half man/half robot takes on ruthless developers who want to evict some people on "their" land. Many people say that RoboCop 3 is worse than RoboCop 2 i disagree Robocop III was never meant to be the next Terminator 2 in my opinion but in a way i think it was a fun film it has good action it has alright acting and some good funny jokes my favorite moments are the ones in the Church when Murphy looks at the people and then the OCP bad guys and he kept doing that in order for him to decide what to do another great scene is when he was crawling and the theme started playing in the background and he kept looking at the TV and then he looks at the Jet Pack which is my favorite thing about this Robocop movie but also this film is basically a whole political agenda and that is why it was hated just like Superman IV: Quest For Peace none of those films are bad in my opinion i just look at them as fun they have dumb moments and characters but i have fun with them i don't take them seriously and that is why i liked them also it's not the fault of Fred Dekker or even Robert John Burke and even tho Peter Weller left the role that doesn't mean that someone else can't continue what he left and Burke does a pretty good job with both the dramatic moments and the action and also the moments with the kid which i found pretty nice besides he is still half man, half machine he has feelings just like Arnold did in T2 although he was a machine he learned from humans and that is why he sacrificed himself, i'm not saying that this movie is as great as Terminator 2 i'm just giving you an example of what i mean. Nancy Allen also returns for a small part as Lewis and i always loved that scene in the church when Alex says "Officer Down" and it came out very good. Now the problems with Robocop 3 is some of the characters for example Stephen Root as Coontz, Rip Torn and John Castle as Paul McDaggett was alright nothing great or anything i also loved those flashbacks like when he remembered his death or even when he pictured his wife and then she changed faces with Lewis and changed again into Lazarus i liked most of the characters but some were really handled poorly like Shane Black as Donnelly or even Mako as Kanemitsu but overall i found Robocop 3 is one of those movies that i had fun because it doesn't take it self serious it has some over the top action and jokes but in my mind it worked it's just another Superman III and Superman IV i liked them cause they were stupid that's all they didn't try to be serious like Robocop 2 did and that was it's ultimate defeat i give RoboCop 3 a 9 out of 10 and a A- the Original alongside the Remake remain my top favorite RoboCop Movies.
The first Robocop was amazing, Robocop 2 was a worthy sequel. I use to sit and watch these movies with my father. It was something he and I bonded over. This movie just ruined a good Saturday night. how do you go from solid R rated flicks to a PG 13? People loved it for the action and violence. Why ruin a perfectly good formula? Along the way Robo crashes cars, battles robot ninjas and flies through the air like a six-ton Superman. Alas, none of it can save ROBOCOP 3, a film into which very little real effort seems to have gone. It's obvious someone just sat back and expected this movie to sell itself. It didn't. Not one bit. Save your money. Save your time. Run far far away from this movie.
