One of the best cheesy movies
I love this movie to no end, but it is by no means a good movie. Its one of those cheesy movies that comes on around 1 AM, sure the plot is completely original from the first movie as Robocop, a cyborg created to help police the mean streets of Detroit city in the year 2055 must now fight against a drug known only as Nuke. There is a sub plot too, as the company that manufactured Robocop are trying to create a second Robocop, but they do not succeed until the end of the movie (big battle). This movie has such poor casting in it, take for instance the mayor of Detroit is only 20 or 25 years old, the drug lord, is a bald man in his 40s and one of the main bad guys in the movie is a 12 year old played by Malcom (from Malcom in the Middle). This movie has an overabundance of unneeded violence as Robocop shoots first, then arrests the bad guys. It also has some pretty funny parts in it, some are funny-funny others are just plain so stupid you have to laugh. Even with all of my bad remarks about this movie there is lots of action, for every five minutes of dialog like "freeze dirt-bag," there are ten minutes of shooting, brawling and bad guy busting.

Classic sequel.
Many people hate this movie. I didn't. It is just as good as the original and 1000 times better than #3. Set about one year after the first one (listen to the Old Man"s speech before he introduces Robocop 2), RoboCop is back and this time he's up against druglord Cain (Tom Noonan) and the young Hod (Gabriel Damon). The cops won't do anything because they are still on strike, but RoboCop and his partner Lewis (Nancy Allen) are still in business. RoboCop captures Cain eventually, but OCP, who created RoboCop, creates RoboCop 2 and puts Cain's brain in the machine. Now RoboCop must fight Cain one last time in the building OCP gave to Detroit as "a gift."

This was a good movie, not as bad as some people give it credit for. Peter Weller did a fantastic job as RoboCop. Tom Noonan and Gabriel Damon did just as good. This is one of the best sequels of all time. So remember to buy this and the original and avoid #3 at all costs.

Robocop 2 REVIEW
Worthwhile sequel to Verhoven's smash hit, "Robocop" has Weller reprising his role of Alex Murphy, a deceased cop brought back as a machine to fight crime in futuristic Detriot. This time around, Motor City is at war as a dictator-like drug dealer is using his new designer drug, "Nuke" to gather a group of followers. Meanwhile, most of the police force is on strike while Robo's manufacturing company, OCP, wants to take over the bankrupt city. OCP decides to create a newer more stronger "Robocop" but rather than use an actual field officer like they did with Murphy, they turn to the very drug dealer who has turned the city into a war zone. The usual violent mayhem ensues before the two Robocops battle their way through the city in an anti-climatic grudge match. "Robocop 2" is even more violent than the original but it does still feature a lot of the over-the-top humor displayed in its predecessor as well. Fans of the first will enjoy but most others will proably be unimpressed.
