Goofs

When one of the Rehab officers shoots Robocop as he torches the staging area, in the over-the-shoulder view of the officer, there is no muzzle flash from the M16. He's clearly faking the recoil, and the sparks from the "bullets" are on his chest even though he's aiming at his head.

User Reviews

One of the worst science-fiction movies ever

When I was very little, I became a fan of the first 2 Robocop films. So when I heard they were going to release a third movie, I couldn't wait. Then I saw the movie, and couldn't believe what I had just saw. I was terrible. The story was actually good and could have worked. But they had to do what ruins a lot of other movies:add a little kid character. It also featured a very horribly written character of a robot ninja. And without Peter Weller from the first two movies, this movie just wasn't the same. And a PG-13 rating? The whole point of the Robocop movies was to make some of the most violent and swear-filled movies you'll ever see. So my advice to you would be to watch the first two Robocop films, and pretend this one was never made.
