Actually really enjoyed this mid-90s B-movie sci-fi film

Actually really enjoyed this mid-90s B-movie sci-fi film that might not have the best visual effects but I liked the simple story and James Remar looked like he was giving it his all even with a weak script. But as a whole I was surprisingly entertained. **3.5/5**

"Well I'll kill the man and the myth."

Who remembers Stuart Gordon's original robot-showdowns of "Robot Jox" and then not long after Charles Brand made "Crash and Burn", which was somewhat a loose follow-up which re-used the robot footage. Well supposedly the low-budget action sci-fi "Robo Warriors" is the third sequel (as there was Albert Band's "Robot Wars" which I haven't seen) and probably the best one to follow on from "Robot Jox" and "Robot Jox 2: Robot Wars" even if it really only uses Gordon's central idea. Although the threat this time is coming from an inter-galactic race lead by James Tolkan and James Lew under heavy make-up that has taken over the earth in the not-too-distant future, but if those are looking for a whole bunch of arena robot action might just be disappointed. As these gladiators robot standoffs between these towering creations don't really come into play, until the film's climax and there's one scene early on. Clunky but entertaining. Most of the time is spent focusing on resistant fighter / former robot jox fighter Ray Gibson (played with vigorous energy by James Remar) trying to find the last remaining legendary robo warrior machine with the help of a young boy and his grandfather who created these machines and then preparing for the final showdown for Earth's freedom. A lot of the time the repetitive story spends building up to the inevitable showdown, but it remains enjoyable with some lean action, chase elements and a busy pace with the material crafting out a myth of a heroic figure which would be told for many centuries to come. You can see most of the money went into the special effects and they do come off well enough for a b- grade production. One thing though, Richard Band's music theme did remind me of "Predator". An okay time waster. "You told me that story 400 times already."

Boys and their Robot-toys!

Suppose you ask the average 10 to 12-year-old boy about ideas for an action movie, what do you think he would come up with? Robots, right? Giant and robust robots that must battle each other with rocket launchers, laser guns, and big iron fist-smashes! Oh, and aliens. Alien with bizarrely wrinkled faces that nevertheless look and talk like angry human beings. Yeah!So, I reckon "Robo Warriors" was written by a 10-year-old boy. It's a sort of unofficial sequel to the cheesy late-80s Sci-Fi hit "RobotJox" (director Stuart Gordon is even credited) but less entertaining. James Remar is a fantastic and underrated actor, in my humble opinion, but he clearly also wasn't very motivated to play the hero in this infantile piece of junk full of horrendous 90s cliches and stereotypes (heroic kids, likable grandfathers, insignificant women, Asian fighting mentors, ...). The special effects are poor and borderline laughable, there's nothing "futuristic" about the allegedly 2036 sets and locations. Apparently, in 2036, people still drive ordinary cars and live in typically 90s houses.
