The third in the Robocop film series and also the last one until the remake in 2014. This movie was completely clobbered by the critics and the public stayed away when it was released. But it seemed the critics completely missed the point. This was a "B" science fiction/action film in the great tradition of Death Race 2000, Robot Jox and Ninja III: The Domination to point out a few of the many.
Robocop 3 the movie has it all. Scary street gangs, robot samurai warriors, a jet pack, a flamethrower arm, lots of explosions and much over the top violence. Robocop 3 was directed by an expert in the genre, Fred Dekker. Dekker was responsible for Night Of The Creeps, and The Monster Squad so he certainly knew how to mix violent nonsense with some goofy humor.
I can't say it's a good film, but it is certainly an entertaining one. Any movie that has a tech savvy orphan, a beautiful scientist and a monotone robot man can't be all bad.
The film was written by Fred Dekker and comic book writer Frank Miller, the running time is 104 minutes.
