This is one of those films that gets better as you drink more beer. Great movie to watch with your pack of snarky friends. The Rifftrax version works too if your snarky friends haven't called in sick to avoid another useless staff meeting and you are home alone. It isn't great cinema but it has high fun potential.

Second attempt by the director Sam Firstenberg to pick in on the cyborg flicks but as the first entry failed due it's cheapness this goes a bit further into that era. David Bradley came back as Jack Ryan and still does what he can do best, fighting. This time there are a bunch of Cyborgs to destroy but again they all looked cheap and the voice effects used was a bit stupid. But the cyborg this time didn't walk like a wooden doll, he was played by Morgan Hunter and he did better than the first cyborg. Like in the original one it did have some gratuitous nudity again in a fabric were girls are working topless. But one girl really couldn't act, sadly she had a bit of main role, Liz played by Jill Pierce was as wooden as it could be. But this time I guess that the money was really nothing at all because they weren't ashamed to edit stupid mistakes in their flick. Just look at the soldiers sometimes or passengers in crashing cars. You could easily see that they were dummies. Even when Jack Ryan is doing stuff with windows or fire or whatsoever you can see a stuntman with different hair. So this is one for the buffs of SBIG flicks. Gore 0/5 Nudity 1/5 Effects 1/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 1/5

Other than the same lead(and both sorta being revenge flicks), this isn't particularly connected to the first one(and no, the reporter doesn't return, nor is she referred to... at all). Yes, our motorcycling renegade DEA officer is back(and he's gotten less subtle about ripping off Terminator 2: Judgment Day). He takes down a terrorist(...I think), a man who takes no less than two separate hostages when they meet. Ah, but then the guy is taken away from death row because someone wants to make him into a cyborg(and no, there's still no "cop", the title remains a lie... their arsenal is cool enough though, with a flamethrower, a "blow-crap-up"(they refer to it as a laser... and it ain't) and a gatling gun), meaning combine his flesh with obvious rubber suits... I mean, metal, and they call him Spartacus, because they failed history class and the writer/director(who did the original, and some of the American Ninja movies) thinks that it's clever. He and the others turn on their masters, leading us to believe that maybe, just maybe, it wasn't smart to arm the crap out of criminals. Meh. Watching RoboCop 2 could have told them that(and no, the similarities couldn't be by chance). So, they want to take over the world... of course. If the religious tones to their dialog wasn't enough, we get beaten over the head with organ funeral music when they're on screen. This is as stupid as its predecessor, and not as much fun. It remains entertaining... in the opening, someone clotheslines someone, in the torso, whilst the latter is on a truck. No, seriously. Half the guns are automatics, yet everyone gets hit once. And we get some odd cuts, like no explosion(of which there are plenty in this) from a grenade launcher, yet one from a shotgun literally a second later. We get physical fights(one of them ought to be referred to as the "stop hitting yourself and your buddies" match) and shootouts again. The acting is hammy and poor. There's a new kid, I think, and he delivers about as bad a performance. Clichés aplenty, bad comic relief and, when they need to be, ineffectual wristcomputers(meant to control the bots). There is a nice amount of violence(less brutal, bloody or gory, for some reason), a few topless women and a little strong language in this. I recommend this to fans of B-movies. 1/10

This is a really fun action movie! Sure the plot is stupid, the acting is bad, and the special effects arn't special, but it's all done in such a superbly bad way! Jack is back! David Bradley is great at playing the cliche renegade cop out for revenge! In fact he is the best actor in the movie and the best at kicking a**! You just can't stop laughing at the texan who lapses into cockney, the hobbling cyborgs with one leg bigger that the other, the over the top heroics of Jack giving it to the cyborgs with both barrels! Also see the great locations they have for shoot-outs, all those places to fall from! Oh yeah and virtually nobody dies without it being in slow motion and totally over the top! It's tough to judge which is better Cyborg Cop or Cyborg Cop II, they are just both so chock a block with cliches and hilarious.9/10
