    Storyline

    • Trivia
      The scene in which RoboCop opens fire around the head of someone who is smoking, after which he says 'Thank you for not smoking', was actually licensed and run as a public service announcement ahead of several different films in many non-smoking movie theaters during the summer movie season that year.
    • Goofs
      The telethon fund-raising goal to get Detroit out of debt is 37 million. This is a ridiculously low figure for a city the size of Detroit, even in the state of decline depicted in the film. At the time the movie was made, the annual budget for city of Detroit was more than one billion, and could run 50 million budget deficit in just one year. When the city filed for bankruptcy in 2013, it was in debt in excess of 18 billion. There is also the issue that failure to pay the debt would apparently cause OCP to gain control of virtually all of the city's public services. The combined worth of that would likely be in the billions, and as such having that as collateral for a 37 million dollar debt makes no sense.
    • Quotes

      RoboCop: Your hair looks lovely that way.

      Lewis: It's OCP. They did something to you.

      RoboCop: I'm fine. Isn't the moon wonderful tonight?

      Lewis: It's still daytime.

      RoboCop: It's the thought that counts.

      Lewis: Oh, Jesus! We're heading back to the station!

    • Crazy credits
      The title of the film does not appear until the end credits.
    • Alternate versions
      The UK VHS video release features a number of cuts for violence:
      • A carjacking technique is missing
      • A hooker pokes the a thief in the face with the heel of her shoe
      • Duffy's face being smashed in glass is less shorter
      • Duffy's death is shorter, including a line of dialogue spoken by Angie being lost
      • Anne and Robo shooting bad guys and bloody exit wounds is missing
      • Angie's death is less graphic. Robocop 2 breaks Angie's neck; this was cut.

    One Awesome Action-Packed Sequel.
    Robocop 2 is a very amusing movie that is often times unfairly criticized. It is obviously not as good as the first film, but its still a darn good sequel. This movie, just like the first, always gets made fun of and I can't see why. I think these movies are just so entertaining. Here's my two cents.

    I am a huge fan of these Sci-Fi/Action movies, and Robocop is definitely one of the coolest in the genre. The first film is a classic, but most people don't seem too fond of it's sequel. Robocop 2 is dark, cruel, and gruesome, but it never misses it's chance to fit in a joke. The humor in this movie is just as good as the first's, if not better. The acting is a little poor at times, but you can't expect too much out of a film like this. Robocop 2's story is less diverting, but the special effects are superior to the first. This movie has a much better climax than the original, and the final moments of violence at the ending have some of the best special effects I have ever seen(without the use of cgi)in a movie.

    My problem is that people always accuse films like this of not being realistic enough. What should you expect from a title like 'Robocop 2"? People need to just sit back and suspend disbelief for a movie like this. The Robocop movies are pure bloody fun, that's all. I recommend this movie to anyone who likes violent 'machine vs. machine' warfare, and being a fan of the first movie couldn't hurt either.

    FAQ9

    • What is 'RoboCop 2' about?
    • Is 'RoboCop 2' based on a book?
    • It seems very strange that RoboCain's remote won't turn him off, but it will deactivate his weapons. Why is it able to do one and not the other?
