Synopsis:
The serialized story structure and barbed
social commentary from comic book creator and co-writer Frank Miller earned
critical respect in this satirical science fiction sequel directed by Irvin
Kershner. Peter Weller returns as RoboCop, a futuristic cyborg fashioned from
cutting-edge technology and the biological remains of slain Detroit police
officer, Alex Murphy. Still patrolling the city streets, RoboCop is scheduled by
his creator, Omni Consumer Products, to be replaced by a new "superior" model,
RoboCop 2, that according to designer Juliette Faxx (Belinda Bauer), will
contain the human remains not of a cop but a criminal. In the meantime, an
instantly addictive drug called Nuke is sweeping through Detroit thanks to a
kingpin named Cain (Tom Noonan). Taking Cain to task, RoboCop is captured and
dismantled. When he's put back together, the cyborg is reprogrammed with a
series of socially conscious commands (in a sly mocking of the then relatively
new concept of "political correctness") that render him impotent as a law
enforcer. Taking charge by rewiring himself with an electrical overload, RoboCop
arrests Cain, who is injured in the process. Faxx secretly takes Cain's brain
and inserts it into RoboCop 2, turning the robot immediately into a
law-breaking murder machine and leading to a violent showdown between two
generations of robotic crime-fighters.
