It is the sequel to the 1987 film RoboCop, [8] the second entry in the RoboCop franchise and the last to feature Weller as RoboCop until he returned in Mortal Kombat 11, RoboCop: Rogue City and other media; it is also the last film Kershner directed before his death in 2010.
People take for granted that RoboCop is simply a resurrected Murphy as a cyborg trying to reclaim his humanity, but the truth is even more tragic and existential. Alex Murphy is dead. Dead, dead. What we see with Robo is a cyborg with programming, but haunted by memories that aren't really "his."

Miller’s darkly satirical...
