If you've seen the TV series and thought it was garbage, then you can avoid this and not regret wasting four hours of your life. This version took elements from the first movie and the TV series and tried to make something out of it. Alas, you just can't go any higher than the first movie. I watched the TV series only because it was Robocop and he's one of my all-time favorite heroes. It's a shame that people in Old Detroit make so many bad decisions that they end up looking like middle school dropouts who were given positions in power. If they had made the series out of the short-lived comic book then it would have been a gigantic hit among Robo fans. But, back to this movie. The actors did their jobs well, but the scripting was disastrous and unrealistic. If you want Robocop then I suggest you see Robocop or even Robocop 2. Watching this will only tarnish fond memories of the originals.
