Movie Reviews of Robocop 3
Movie Review: A Knight in Shining Titanium
Summary: 4 Stars
This is the first time I remember the third film in a series being the absolute best. Maybe it is because this is the film where Robocop finally gets his priorities straight- as well as the rest of the Detroit PD. I always saw the character as more of a knight in shining armor than a cop, and here he comes across as all that. As a matter of fact, with his new flight pack he comes across as a shining avenging angel.
I especially enjoyed the scenes where the corporate managers of the OCP Corp (Offensive Capitalist Pigs) offed thenselves by jumping out of windows and shooting themselves. Too bad life doesn't follow art more often. After all, this film only slightly exagerates the attitude of multinational corporate managers towards the American people. They sold us out to their corporate masters....
There were scenes in this movie that I actually stood and cheered for, and other scenes that brought a lump to my throat. That doesn't happen very often to me these days. Then I notice who wrote the screenplay- the great Frank Miller ("Batman: The Dark Knight Returns" and "Sin City.") That explained everything.
I really loved this film.
Movie Review: Robocop 3
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a fun B movie and a nice sequel! No one loves this movies but me!Movie Review: Not the best of the series, but still fun!
Summary: 3 Stars
This is clearly the weakest of the 3 Robocop movies. Robo 1 and 2 are truly thrilling. This one is over-the-edge in believability, and it does not have Peter Weller, so therefore, we get less of his humanity, since the new actor is not very talkative. There are some very good performances in this movie, however. Particularly by Remy Ryan as the smart little girl who assists Robo and CCH Pounder who is the heroine of sorts. Both are very good in their parts.
Movie Review: Down with O.C.P.!
Summary: 3 Stars
Robocop returns in Robocop 3, but Peter Weller's presence is missed. This is the final confrontation between the citizens of Detroit and the evil corporation Omni Consumer Products. Robocop has to decide whether he's with OCP or the citizens fighting for their homes. Due to the PG-13 rating the action and violence is a little more toned down, and Robocop is more of a superhero in this movie than a supercop.Movie Review: Worst of the three
Summary: 2 Stars
Dissapointing but, that's Orion's fault for making it PG-13. This movie still hangs on to some good dark humor but loses all of the action. PG-13 movies bug me because it's telling younger viewers that it's ok to watch people die, in a certain fashion. I mean, all PG-13 movies have nonstop explosions, like in this movie, where there is nonstop explosions, showing people go flying in the air. But, of course, if someone dies in a realistic fashion, it's not appropriate for children. I hate the way holywood does this and this movie is a perfect example of it. For some lousy reason, they rated it Pg-13, which ruined the movie. In the first one and 2 nd one, when Ed 209 (a gigantic robot) fires his minigun at cops....they die. In this, their cars blow up but somehow, they dodge the minigun????
This is a major letdown and I blame the fact that they rated it Pg-13 for that. On top of it, I hate it when movies have a little girl who is a complete genious. How is she so smart???? I mean come on! Robert John Burke does a fine job replacing Peter Weller so there's no problem there even though Weller did a better job. The humor is still there, not as good as the first 2, but still there, so that's a +. Buy the trilogy for the first 2 and not for this.
And for the reviewer saying this is good because it's a family movie, what the heck? The first two showed a very dark future while this one makes it so cheesy it's lame. So, how is that good? For children to sit and watch "low degrees of violence"? Whatever. PG-13 action movies are all the same, and this same is bad. Thank goodness for the humor or else, YIKES!
