RoboDoc: The Creation of RoboCop

I waited for about five years for this documentary to come out. After COVID hit it was delayed further and I was beginning to lose hope that it would ever make it out to print. But here it is in it's final form and it does not disappoint. From the music and the intro to the detail of every interview from the original film crew. The actors, director, producers, writers, creators all lend commentary to this and it's such a polished piece well worth the wait. Peter Weller was originally not interested in doing the project for some reason. I can't think of how disappointing this would have been without the titular character but it proved to be an excellent addition. Very nostalgic and entertaining for everyone who grew up watching this classic.

This stupendously extensive 4 part doc tells you everything you will ever want to know about the making and release of this now cult classic.

After watching much props to everyone department involved to have given us this gem of a movie and character. Paul at the helm but without the collective vision it could have been a totally different movie and came of cheesy as opposed to the dark gritty film we got.

The concept alone screams fluff and cheese but this documentary really shows how a vision can be achieved with collaboration and understanding.

Please make docs in a similar vein with others namely; Total Recall; Running Man; Aliens; T2; Gremlins; Ghostbusters. Thanks in advance!

I loved every second of this. I always appreciate a good 'behind the scenes' doc, yet for the most part they usually seem too short. The fact that this is as long and comprehensive as it is, is nothing short of feeling like I've received 44 Christmases all at once.

The love and appreciation the makers of this have for the source material shines through in every single moment. The actors and production guys all seem to be loving every moment they get to reminisce.

Honestly if I could get a doc series of this depth and quality for every one of my favourite 80's flicks I'd literally be living heaven on earth.

Wow. #RoboDocTheCreationOfRoboCop is hands down THE BEST documentary on a film I've ever seen.

The love, care & attention to detail is phenomenal. It spends OVER 4hrs examining every detail of the classic '87 #RoboCop.

What sets this aside from most others is it included absolutely everyone it could. Even bit part actors were invited in & shared great memories.

Same for crew members. It's great hearing them recount how incredible the making of this film was. And how stressful it was at times too!

It's essential viewing for fans. It covers most parts of the movie - certainly all memorable scenes, of which most are!

It's fun, engaging & has a terrific soundtrack. I had a blast watching it.

Just finished watching the fourth instalment and I have to say it was a blast. This is a deep delve into the classic 80's movie giving untold insight and reverence to it. All docu makers should watch this and learn. Always knew it was in my top ten movies but now I understand more why it means so much to me. Peter Weller in particular showed us why he is defined by this movie as is Paul Verhoeven for this and Starship Troopers. Getting all available cast and crew to share interesting titbits about making the movie was fascinating. A lot of what took place wouldn't be allowed today ie stunt work but everyone seemed to go along for the ride and enjoyed it as much as the rest of us would go on to do. Bravo !!!
