Like the second episode, this third installment that completes the 20th century 'Robocop trilogy' was written by Frank Miller, and Fred Dekker who also directs this third and final film in the original Robocop franchise. Legendary composer Jerry Goldsmith also returns, having missed out on 'RoboCop 2' (1990), with another powerful soundtrack that highlights this work with both strength and sensitivity.
Destructive critics simply haven't understood the philosophy of this film, which honors its predecessors, while continuing the fight against the oppression of the OCP. The 'Omni Consumer Products' that grants itself the right to override the rule of law by attempting a coup against the Police Department and the Citizens of the City of Detroit.
But the officer, called Murphy by those who honor his noble values, and Robocop for those who do not deserve this honor, watches over the city and the inhabitants by applying the directives which are his raison d'être:
1. "Serve the Public Trust"
2. "Protect the Innocent"
3. "Uphold the Law"
Directive 4 is permanently removed when the OCP no longer serve the public trust, attack the innocent, and violate the law.
With worldwide box office earnings three times its budget - not including other media sales - RoboCop 3 is a profitable film. But it took 21 years before a... reboot was released in 2014.
