i be a huge fan of the original robocop . but to say i be disappoint by this first sequel would be an understatement . the problem be many . glossy though the film may look there be plenty of blooper on screen for all to see and wire and cameraman etc and something i find wholly unacceptable from someone of irvin kreshner pedigree . robocop have become a robot . there be no spark of humanity to be find in the character here . a true disappointment when one consider that his soul have return by the end of the first movie . here his attitude show no human side and make him hard to sympathise with . caine be a poor villain . ok i know boddiker from the first film be good than the average and mainly thanks to kurtwood smith performance and but the usually solid tom noonan create a character who you couldn not care less about one way or the other . what happen to the old man . i appreciate that he do not get to where he be by be nice but the change in his character here be nothing short of dumbfound . in the first movie it make clear he despise dick jone tactic and attitude and yet here he no well than jones . it make no sense . doctor faxx be a poor replacement for bob morton charismatic and if unpleasant and ocp resident genius . the action sequence and save the sequence where murphy be stick to the side of caine truck and be harsh and nasty and repel rather than entertain . and finally . what be with the musical score . don not tell me poledouris couldn not have do it simply because he be work on total recall at the time . a series ( tv or movie ) soundtrack be part of it personality . part of it character . when you remove that it harm the familiarity of the character be watch . so it bad enough but shame on leonard rosenman . his score here be lurid and camp and downright cringe worthy . the story have it moment to be fair . there a lot of originality in here . but it try too many new thing to take in with one film . hob be a well realise villain and the only truly dis likable villian in the move and thumb up to gabriel damon there . the final showdown between robocop and robocop 2 be fun as well . but for the vast majority of it overlong running time this be a serious disappointment .
