RoboDoc: The Creation of RoboCop

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.....

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.

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.

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.

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!
