> Robocop 3 (1993)



> SCORE:

> 3/5

I'd give this 4 stars easily. His original Robocop score is still the best, but this one is a bit more thematically complex, especially in it's expanded presentation.

Also, I consider the film to be one of the worst one's in my collection (I got the trilogy set mainly for the first 2), but much like A Good Day to Die Hard, and the least the composer was able to deliver something good out of sequel films where everything else was a dumpster fire.

> SCORE:

> 4/5

5-Stars. It's a masterpiece and my favorite Poledouris score. I think I ranked it higher than anyone in the community extravaganza (in my top 20). My family loved watching this film in the 90's, and the music connected with me at a very early age, so much that when I finally got into collecting scores many years later and picked it up, I was surprised how much I remembered from the film. It's a shame the blu-ray is now OOP and so expensive, b/c I've been wanting to watch it again.

Also, this was my first experience with Michael Jackson, and his song from this film remains one of my favorites from him. The VHS of Free Willy had a music video of Orca's set to the song (back before bonus features were really a thing like they became with DVDs). Lots of nostalgia attached to the film and music for me, if you couldn't tell lol.

I have never watched a single Steven Seagal film. Ever.

I think I've seen 3. Both Under Siege movies, and his bit in Executive Decision. Oh wait, he was in one of the Machete movies too, right? So maybe 4.

If I ever watch another (I don't intend to), it might be this one just for My Cocaine.

I'd agree with this. It's decent, but you wouldn't be missing much by skipping it.
