It really was an iconic sci-fi movie, and they truly just don't make them like that anymore. It rivals and surpassed the Terminator in a number of areas. Documentary is very interesting as so many of the cast and crew take part, and it virtually breaks down the movie scene by scene, giving you massive insight in to the production. The effects side of things I found really interesting, and just the thought and creative processes.
Like other franchises Robocop became diluted and virtually destroyed. Robocop was a raw sci-fi movie which did not hold back. It is sad but making a movie like that in this day and age is virtually unthinkable. You get adult movies, but they are small productions or art house-not on the scale of this block buster dark dystopian commentary on the future. Studios seem to scared to take risks, which is a draining the life out of cinema at the moment.
Very thankful that they took the time to make this in depth documentary on one of the Sci-fi greats.
