| Leonard Maltin/Plot synopsis: |
The setting: Detroit, in the near future. A cop who dies in the line of duty is transformed into an ultrasophisticated cyborg by the corporation which now runs the police department. Only hitch: this ``perfect'' cop still seeks revenge on the sadistic creeps who killed him. Sharp, slick, slam-bang action entertainment, with fantastic stop-motion animation supervised by Phil Tippett (ED 209 is a wow!)... but its view of life in the future is unremittingly bleak and ugly. Followed by two sequels, an animated and a live-action TV series. Unrated director's cut available on laser disc.
