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.

As a massive Robocop fan this is a must see, or if a 80s film fan in general.

To have cast and crew relive memories and stories about the making this film and the creativity behind some of the most iconic scenes dialogue and sound effects is a wonder to behold!

No CGI, just skilled filmmakers at work from Robocops original creation to getting the film having the greenlight to the audience's reaction to its initial test screenings and then of course to release across the world.

If your thinking of making a documentary this is the format to follow.

Put down your phone, you have 20 seconds to comply.....

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 !!!

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!

This Documentary is so good. Not only is it one of my favorite movies but this Documentary series explains everything scene by scene! I could see this whole series on a future Blu Ray. Peter Weller explains all of his scenes and I give him props for how much he put in. He even did some pop lock dance moves to get the robotic movement. It's a must watch for all of the Robofans! I've been on the edge of my seat for the whole series! I was even was dying to come home from work to continue the series because I didn't finish it in one day. It's got all of the cast talking about how they made the movie. It's definitely a must see!
