I LOVED the first Robcop. I liked the second one. I hated this. Even if I watched it as a stand-alone film, it would be awful. My list of why this movie was just awful: no commercials. No peter Weller. Ninja robots. Terrible writing. Flying robocop. Less violent. Bad acting. Teenage humor. Those just off the top of my head. There were 5 actors that reprised their roles and that was pretty cool. Watch this just to complete the trilogy but only for that reason.

Now whilst the second film isnt the best its still entertaining and keeps continuous with the first film. This film however with a new director and a new Robocop just didnt hit any of the notes and was just a cheap cash grab.

I liked the first two films, the first the most, but this third instalment is just a waist of time. Why did they have to change a really well cast Peter Weller as the cybernetic cop, to a rubbish Robert John Burke. I can't remember any of the story apart from RoboCop going into some kind of sewer or something to live for a while. That's about it. It's obviously Robert John Burke that makes this film the most stupid of the three. I can't remember seeing any good fight or gun scenes, and no good special effects like Paul Verhoeven's film. You remember the guy melting! Also starring Men in Black's Rip Torn somewhere. Adequate!

Peter Weller bailed out from RoboCop 3 and in this film, Nancy Allen soon follows. What is worse you have to wait for ages for Robert John Burke to show up as RoboCop. He sides with the down and outs of Detroit City who are being moved on by the Urban Rehabilitation Officers hired by the evil corporation, Omni who want to clear the slums and build new skyscrapers. Angry at RoboCop's actions, the villain McDaggett (John Castle) hires robot ninjas to take him out and Omni smear RoboCop as having gone rogue. The original Robocop directed by Paul Verhoeven was an ultraviolent satirical classic with black humour and an anti corporate stance. This is a poor film lacking any subtext of the original but just cashing in on its success. The effects look cheap and the script is third rate.

Even the commercials are better, and you have the squatters being evicted by OCP Police! You have Robotic Ninjas! You have a Robocop flying! Its great! The only bad scene is the showdown at the end of the movie didn't end with more shooting, and compared to Robocop 1 and 2 it is a lot more "family friendly" (read: not enough blood). Robocop 3 was the best movie I saw in 1993. And Now you can get Robocop 1-3 in a DVD Collection box! Get it now!
