Here is my full reaction to RoboCop 2!

We're going back to the dangerous wasteland of Detroit, where RoboCop roams the streets to protect people from a seedy corporate takeover. I really enjoyed this film's satirical edge, which adds a sense of absurdity to an otherwise very intense world. Like the original, it takes aim at sensationalist media and the increasing commercialization of everyday life.

The movie also focuses heavily on grotesque human experimentation, with plenty of disturbing imagery and body horror. But that's the nature of the RoboCop world.

Watched on: Amazon Prime / Runtime: 1:56:41

Hope you enjoy!

I never realized this was directed by the legendary Irvin Kershner. He taught George Lucas at USC's film school and after the success of Star Wars, Lucas asked him to direct The Empire Strikes Back.

It is an oddly abrupt ending. Sadly Robocop 3 is really terrible. Peter Weller doesn't come back to play Murphy and the violence and satire was cut way down. It's a real mess. I've never liked the death of the kid. I always felt like it was a cheap attempt to make us feel sympathy for him just because he's a kid. He was only and always a little POS so it felt silly to try and make us suddenly feel emotional over his death.

Jax, you commented on the "Old Man" CEO having a great voice and should read audiobooks... I wonder if you made the connection that it's the same actor who played Grig in the Last Starfighter (under the lizard makeup)...?
