Movie Reviews of Robocop 3
Movie Review: Great DVD set!
Summary: 5 Stars
I watched Robocop a long time ago and loved it. Watching it again now is even better. What a great movie!!! There was so much in it that I didn't pick up when I was a teenager, but now, watching it from a man's prospective, it's a totally different experience. I really get sucked into it!The version of Robocop in this set is the "un-rated" version. Some of the scenes are extremely grusome. A lot more grusome than they were in the "R" rated version. (After seeing these scenes, I actually thought twice about eating red meat.) I would definitely keep kids away from watching it. Robocop 3 on the other hand (rated PG-13), is very strangely more family oriented. A lot less violent, with no use of the "F" bomb. Not as good as the other two movies, but it has it's moments.
If you remember and liked the Robocop movies (especially the first one), this set is worth picking up. The movies were ahead of there time and have aged very well. A "must have" DVD set for me, and maybe for you too!
Movie Review: Well,
Summary: 5 Stars
This film got alot of negative reviews. Notice the five stars I'm giving it? That means positive.This was actually the first Robocop movie I ever watched (The other 2 were rated R, and at the time I was only 10), and Robocop shot right up there with Batman and Spiderman. So, I suppose I'm a bit biased, and prolly should rate it lower, but I just couldnt do that to one of my all-time favorites (and one of my first) action movies.
Movie Review: Not a bad movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm not a fan of Robocop and the movies with him, especially the ones from 2001, but this movie has totally changed my mind about him . This movie has great action, a good plot, great costumes, and a great script. I don't know why everyone gave gave this movie bad reviews because it's not a bad movie. I give it 5 STARS! Loved it!Movie Review: RoboCop is fun as always!
Summary: 4 Stars
I watched this movie on Netflix and have every intention of buying the DVD- maybe it's just because I'm a little schoolgirl for Frank Miller and the RoboCop movies, but there's a charm with 80s/90s special effects and stop-motion animation (ED-209!) that I just can't resist.
I'll try to keep this review as spoiler-free as possible.
The movie starts out in a Detroit slum where people are being forced out of their homes so a new city can be built on their land. As it turns out, OCP is behind it because they're teamed up with a megacorp in Japan who also has built their own RoboCop (who's more like a samurai than a cop). A little hacker girl gets lost in the confusion of being taken from her home and meets up with a group of (literally) underground rebels who are planning a hostile takeover of OCP. RoboCop shows up to try and sort out the mess, but gets heavily damaged by OCP's police force and he teams up with the rebels. They reprogram him so that his main three prime directives stay intact, but they delete the fourth directive (never oppose an OCP officer) and he helps them fight back against the evil corporation.
All in all, it's a fun, Saturday afternoon sci-fi movie- but nothing more. Is it RoboCop? Yes, but is it RoboCop 1 and 2? No. We're missing Peter Weller (who was off doing another one my favorite movies at the time, "Naked Lunch") and have a new guy who looks and sounds just like him playing the title character. Rip Torn is good as the OCP Chairman, and the acting is as decent as a sci-fi B-movie goes. The special effects are phenomenal for the time, including the brief use of stop-motion animation. But it is lacking the dark, edgy violence that the first two movies had. However, I'm not going to hold that against it, and frankly I thoroughly enjoyed this movie.
Check it out, but only if you're a die-hard RoboCop fan.
Movie Review: He's back and read to serve the public
Summary: 4 Stars
Robocop 3 is a good movie. While it loses some of the darker edge of the first two it makes up for it with a good story, equel amounts of action, cool new gadgets, and decent acting to boot.
The story here is that OCP has officially taken over Detroit. However in the process they are being taken over by a Japanese Company (what goes around comes around), their founder is dead and a bumbling fool is in his place. OCP has set up a band of Mercenaries to clear out the urban areas of Detroit so they can build Delta City. However to do so they need to clear out the people living there. In the process thousands are left homeless and seperated from their families. Evenutally Robocop takes a stand against this and in the process becomes a fugitive from the law. However in the end he exposes the evil that is going on and saves the day as he once again serves and protects.
This is a better movie than #2 mostly because they did tone down the violence level and focused on the story. While there is plenty of action and even some funny moments (like the little girl Niko controlling an Ed209) this movie is more story driven. You actually start to care about the people losing their homes and it gives hope for the franchise. Definently recomended.
