RoboDoc: The Creation of RoboCop

This is one of the best documentaries I've watched in a long time. I've just finished episode 3 and have enjoyed soooo much of the detail, the backstories, and insights offered by cast, film crew, conceptual artists, stuntpeople, and lots more. "RoboCop" has always been a huge favorite, beloved by fans for its characters and action scenes as well as its savage criticism of modern times through some really witty "ads" sprinkled throughout the movie. There's a fourth installment listed but it hasn't aired yet, I don't think. Can't wait! If you're a longtime fan, as I am, you will be fascinated to learn about the labor that went into creating this. R. I. P. Miguel Ferrer and Dan O'Herlihy who were not here to reminisce - but pretty much everyone else is interviewed.

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.

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.

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!

Greatest behind the scenes documentary I've ever seen. It's immensely clear that this was a project of passion; very frame of the 4 part series is meticulous and the score is outstanding.

This really is an incredible piece of filmmaking and you owe it to yourself to watch it. I sincerely hope the team responsible can continue to bring their world class talent to a series of documentaries for other films. This one was such a joy to watch and I plan to show it to family and friends (and encourage them to buy digital copies to support the production crew).

You can't do better than this, it earns every bit of 10 out of 10.
