In the year 2185, six years after the events of the first film, Ross Sylibus has settled down into placid domestic life on Mars with Naomi Armitage, his crime-fighting cyborg partner/love interest from the first film. When riots break out back on Earth, however, Armitage feels compelled to leave her family behind and investigate. What she finds shocks her: At an anti-matter plant, scientists are creating an illegal strain of robot, called "Third Types." Though Armitage herself is a Third Type, she fought against the further creation of these humanoids. Now, she finds she's going to have to take on an army of herself -- genetically engineered clones of herself, that is. English-language versions of this film feature Juliette Lewis as Armitage, replacing Armitage III's English-speaking lead, Elizabeth Berkley. ~ Michael Hastings, Rovi
