It holds up.

Not quite the pure genius of the later Starship Troopers, RoboCop still works damned well in that unique genre of insane, glorious action and radical social politics. This is a genre that consists of, basically, two films: RoboCop and Starship Troopers.

RoboCop is also fun in that it is the single greatest influence on the fine film Ultrachrist!.
