The film does bear many similarities to the Western genre, as well as much of the general "feel." And although it is seldom described as cyberpunk, this is ironic as it actually ticks all the boxes for definitions of the genre.

He is a Robot. He is a Cop. He is a Robocop. They shot his head in. Then he was deadin'. Now he's a Robocop.

Well, way out in the old town of Detroit, a lone lawman walked into town, said he was gunna clean up the streets. Weeellll, some fellers didn't take too kindly to that, and that nice young lawman died in a hail of bullets. But The Old Man had different plans. He fixed that lawman right up with some elbow grease and boiler plates, turned him right into a walking big iron.
