It's Megacop vs. Megacop when Detroit's cyborg crime-fighter with "heart and character" (Entertainment Today) once again hits the streets to protect the innocent--this time from corporate greed! The Motor City has gone completely private. And the ruthless corporation that runs the town is violently kicking families out of their homes to clear space for a profitable new real estate project. Robocop (Robert John Burke, Copland), sworn to protect the public, joins forces with a renegade band of freedom fighters to aid in the battle to save people's houses. And the upstart rebellion pits Robocop against some of his toughest opponents to date, including a lethally efficient android Ninja and a dangerous gang of thugs who live up to their name: The Splatterpunks. Robocop's latest arsenal of high-tech weaponry only somewhat evens the battlefield as this lone superhero takes on the entire army of corporate militia in an all-out war to control Detroit. Starring Oscar nominee Rip Torn, who is "great fun" (Hollywood Drama-logue), Robocop 3 is an "engaging" (Boxoffice) sci-fi adventure that will have you on the edge of your seat.
"Big on action and effects." Entertainment Today
Editor's Note
The big bad company has bought Detroit out and sends gangs of ruthless mercenaries out into the streets to throw residents out of their homes. But Robocop does not swerve from his order to serve and protect the citizens, leading a group of freedom fighters against the cruel executives.
Plot Summary
Delta City, an opulent, epicurean high-rise -- scheduled to replace a Detroit tenement -- is the business venture of a major Japanese corporation controlled by evil millionaire Kanemitsu. And mega-conglomerate Omni Consumer Products (OCP) has been hoping to get in on the gravy train by pandering to the Japanese corporation and dispatching its legion of armed forces to evict impoverished tenants. But when RoboCop joins the underground guerrilla army of homeless united against multinational conglomerate appropriation, there will be more opposition than anyone bargained for.
