Tonight's Stinker I Love Maria(1988) https://youtu.be/y9-sjq4H0jw?si=TK1UelwMhbeaw2Wd A klutzy reporter show up to an active crime scene, where police fail to stop a giant robot from robbing a bank.... The next day, the reporter loses his camera at a press gaggle at the police station, but is helped out by a klutzy scientist.... The scientist later proves his bosses new machine gun won't work, & tries to talk the leader of the science team into his design for a ray gun.... His boss brushes him off, more concerned about his job than stopping the robot.... Later, the scientist helps out a drunk at a bar, who's a former member of the robot gang.... Meanwhile, the leader of the gang has built a robot in the likeness of his girlfriend, Maria, who's not too happy about her doppelganger.... They send the robot to kill the drunk, who's rescued by the scientist, and the robot malfunctions after getting wet.... The drunk & the scientist find themselves on the run from bot the police and the mob.... The English dubbing cuts out & goes to Chinese many times throughout this print, so It's kinda hard to know what they're talking about..... Other than that, there's plenty of decent slapstick, and the robots, the stuff they smash & the practical effects are fairly impressive....
