Pros -
Peter Weller still plays Robocop
Tom Noonan is suitably creepy as Cain
The sequence where Robocop is reprogrammed to be "nice"
The final stop-motion fight. It's nice to see some old-school FX before CGI took over
Cons -
Way too many villains and it's never clear what the stakes are
The script is an incoherent mix of various subplots and random supporting characters that don't mesh well.
Robocop is turned into a generic action hero with none of the conflict between his human and machine side which drove the original
As was mentioned earlier, we're asked to feel sorry for the drug dealing kid's death after he spent the previous hour being a violent sociopathic little shit?
The lack of the trademark Robocop theme
An OK action/sci-fi flick on its own terms, but a very disappointing sequel to the classic original
