    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Orion Pictures licensed the scene where RoboCop (Peter Weller) discharges his weapon into a wall to form an outline around a smoker's head for use as a theatrical public service announcement. This promotional segment played in North American cinemas during the 1990 summer movie season. The studio distributed the clip specifically to theaters maintaining non-smoking policies to reinforce local regulations via the character's line, "Thank you for not smoking."
    • Goofs
      Robocop apparently weighs several hundred pounds, as demonstrated when seven officers struggled trying to lift him after he grabbed the high voltage contacts, yet Robocop's weight never seems to be a factor when using various vehicles, i.e. police squad cars or the Harley-Davidson he commandeers to catch Cain.
    • Quotes
      • Cain: You want me?
      • RoboCop: Dead or alive.
      • Cain: One of us must die.
      • RoboCop: Dead, then.
    • Crazy credits
      The title of the film does not appear until the end credits.
    • Alternate versions
      The UK VHS video release features a number of cuts for violence:
      • A carjacking technique is missing
      • A hooker pokes the a thief in the face with the heel of her shoe
      • Duffy's face being smashed in glass is less shorter
      • Duffy's death is shorter, including a line of dialogue spoken by Angie being lost
      • Anne and Robo shooting bad guys and bloody exit wounds is missing
      • Angie's death is less graphic. Robocop 2 breaks Angie's neck; this was cut.
