RoboCop 2

Robocop 2 is another movie which adds weight to the argument that sequels basically suck.

Kotobukiya Japan ROBOCOP MARK 2 mini figure kit

Kotobukiya Japan ROBOCOP MARK 2 mini figure kit

These figures are a small scale Kotobukiya item. They vary in sizes, but are around 3 or 4 ... more

inches depending on the figure, each figure
consists of 2-7 easy to assemble parts, What was
at first considered merely a futuristic action
film, Robocop quickly gained a cult following due
to it foreboding message about the not-so-distant
future. A world where a hard-working, honest cop
is turned into an emotionless weapon. When Officer
Alex Murphy's memories seep into Robocop's
consciousness, a battle of morals and revenge
commence. The Robocop series is fondly regarded by
many, and, we believe, it's time it was honored
with some cool figures!

Robocop 2 [DVD] [1990] [US Import]

Robocop 2 [DVD] [1990] [US Import]

RoboCop 2isn't just the title of the first sequel toRoboCopbut refers, in a plot ... more

prefiguringTerminator 2: Judgment Day(1991), to a
second, more powerful cyborg introduced as an
adversary to the tin-can man played to perfection
by Peter Weller. Generally dismissed by most fans,
here director Irvin Kershner does much the same
job as he did with the firstStar Warssequel,The
Empire Strikes Back(1980), which is to make a
darker and in some ways more involving
follow-up.Nancy Allen returns from the original as
RoboCop's policewoman sidekick and Kershner sticks
to the jet-black satire and ruthless comic-book
morality of the original, making this a rarity for
Hollywood: a multi-million-dollar franchise movie
anti-capitalist assault on the "greed is good"
mentality of the Regan era. There's even a
hilariously prescient dig at the way the studio
would eventually dumb the series down into
family-friendly fodder, a process that began with
the immediate sequel,RoboCop 3(1993). Action is to
the fore and among the spectacular set-pieces and
furious carnageRoboCop 2offers a last stand before
digital effects took over for some excellent
stop-motion animation for RoboCop's psychotic new
foe.On the DVD: this is a perfunctory release with
nothing in the way of extras bar the original
trailer presented cropped to 4:3. Fortunately the
1.77:1 picture on the main feature is excellent,
with minimal grain, strong colours and plenty of
detail. The sound, though four-channel Dolby
Prologic rather than Dolby Digital, is likewise
excellent, with every word clear and gunshots,
explosions and pulsating score combining to full
cacophonic blockbuster effect. The disc also
contains dubbed versions in Italian, French and
Spanish, as well as a vast selection of subtitles.

The Return Of Chrome Dome

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

Robocop 2 is another movie which adds weight to the argument that sequels basically suck. Few sequels work, those that do are usually radical rethinks of the movie whih came before and have very few elements of the original in them, or make use of more modern technology to blow the predecessor away with flashy special effects and the like. Robocop 2 followed on too closely to its predecessor for that to ever be a viability and went for the highly ...
...a gang of psychos. His Robocop character was all programmed robot - cold and mechanised in direct comparison. We liked the characters, empathising with his plight and with his partner having to see him like this, wanting revenge for him against the thugs and for him to find some of the humanity which she knows is burried in his brain somewhere. Robocop 2 features the same pairing but its not the same - both appear to be delivering their lines in ... more

Kain, Let's Step Outside

Advantages: Violent, like the original
Disadvantages: No Verhoeven, poor script, too violent for some

RoboCop 2 brings about the return of Peter Weller as the bullet proof cop who keeps the streets clean. The story this time is set around a new addictve drug called "NUKE" that has plauged the streets of lawless Detroit. RoboCop is unaware that his creators, OCP (Omni Consumer Products) want to take the city of Detroit "Private" and develop a new and improved RoboCop 2, a newer, bigger and far more powerful robot to replace the original. This film ...
...watch by any means. RoboCop 2 was a good attempt at making a good sequel but failed. It is a fairly enjoyable action sci.fi but isn't really worth the money for purchasing it. If you are keen to see then I recommend the RoboCop Triology on DVD where you get the original, far superior movie and the third is thrown in for the hell of it. Enjoyable but nothing compared to the original RoboCop. ...

Robocrap

Advantages: Are you kidding?? this film is awful!!
Disadvantages: Too many to list? is that an answer?

Robocop the original was a good film, a bit heavy on the body count, but nontheless a good film, with some good satire. Its violence was excusable. Robocop 2 cannot be excused. God himself could not redeem this awful film. Peter Weller and Nancy Allen reprise their roles from the original. They must have been paid well for it. It centers around a drug- dealer and a new highly addictive drug called Nuke. Robocop as usual goes to stop the trade, but ...
...ED-209, only worse. Awful, awful film. As usual, Robocop is smashed up, under the direction of young crimlord played by Gabriel Damon. Thats all you need to know. The rest is just blood, guns and violence. This is a bad film, with none of the charm of its predecessor. ...

Dead or alive, you're coming with me...

Advantages: Violent, a believable future
Disadvantages: Too violent for some to stomach

truely unique and special, recreating bird like movement's when RoboCop to give that feeling that he realy is a cyborg. The man also had a lot of patience as it took him four hours to get into the suit first time plus additional makeup. The other cast members all provide good performances as well but it is Weller who wins first prize as the portrayl of a cyborg with human knowledge and feelings. RoboCop is truely a classic and far outdos its two sequels (RoboCop 2 recreates the violence successfully but lacks the style of Verhoeven and RoboCop 3 just shouldn't of been made) I applore anyone who doesn't mind scenes of graphic violence to catch this (prefrebley on DVD) as this (in Verhoeven's words) is a film about the cruxifiction and the ressurection of someone trying to do good in a word of capitalist corruption and violence. Dead ...

Review of Robocop (DVD)

Try Harder

Advantages: Fast-paced, spectacular, fairly enjoyable if your in the mood
Disadvantages: Dodgy acting, weak script, little credibility and zero tension

steal money and replace them with terrorists trying to liberate a South American Dictator and leave everything else exactly as it was before. Make the explosions bigger,the gunfights louder and the body count higher and surely it can't go wrong. Right? And in all fairness the plan worked. In an action-packed, sequel-stuffed summer facing strong competition from the likes of Total Recall, RoboCop 2, Another 48 Hrs and Back to the Future 3 - Die Hard 2 ultimately came out on top. I, for one was at the front of the (fairly long) queue, and it was all jolly good fun. 10 years later however when we're all a bit more cynical of such fare, Die Hard 2 reveals itself to be remarkably weak in almost every aspect. First of all the mere act of replacing the tower block with the vast expanses of an international airport immediately negates ...

Review of Die Hard 2 (DVD)

Your Move, Creep.

Advantages: One the best Sci-Fi movies ever made. Period.
Disadvantages: The sequels.

yourself with the entire RoboCop trilogy on a spanking new DVD collection, which emphatically consigns the previous Criterion Edition to the scrapheap. It comes with all the extra features of the Criterion disc including a commentary track from controversial director Paul Verhoeven and writer Ed Neumier, the trailers, storyboards and a 'Shooting RoboCop' feature, plus you also get a brand new documentary on the making of Robo, a handful of deleted scenes, and DVD ROM stuff. You even get the option of playing the regular theatrical version or the super-brutal director's cut, an almost unprecedented move from our friends at the BBFC! Oh, and you also get RoboCop's 2 and 3 thrown in, but seeing as these are two of the worst movies ever made, this doesn't count for a lot. Still, considering that the whole package comes for around 28 quid ...
