Format:DVD
The four Prime Directive tv movies, aren't too bad actually. They are much better than the Robocop tv series made in 1994. They bring Robocop back to his violent roots, which is awsome. These four tv movies could have been better, but what can you do, there are worser tv miniseries out there, much worse. So give this a shot, if you like it you like it, if you don't you don't.

It seems that everywhere you look on-line to fine the DVD tech specs you get different answers. Well, I'm here to set things straight.
This R1 release is issued in Anamorphic Widescreen (1.78:1) with English Dolby 2.0 Surround. Surprisingly it's a good strong surround mix. Dialogue, despite some negetive reviews of the broadcase version, is strong and easily understandable.
The R2 release however appears to be in Dolby 5.1, which is ashame because the R1 could have benefitted from a 5.1 mix. But anyway...
Picture quality? Pretty good for a TV show. The only issue is with out-of-focus background lights. They have that digital compression "dot crawl". But other than that, all live action and special f/x look extremely sharp and clear.
Just recently bought this series in geer up for the new release of the Robocop Trilogy. Now, I'd like to see the mid-'90s Robocop series released on DVD. The only thing lacking in this series is the lack of use of Robo's automated targeting grid system. I always found that aspect very cool about the theatrical movies.

Its the worst of them all. Its extremely boring, low-budget and cheesy. Not enough of anything, or robocop or any kind of action worth remembering or even watching. Flether potrayl of Robocop was very bland; all i saw from him were facial expression like something was stinky in his suit no jerky movements or imposing presence of Peter Weller's robocop. I wasted my money and time on this one. Long live the first two theraticals movies.
Its time to bury robocop for good, once and for all

Starts slow, but is well worth it
This the first instalment of the Robocop mini-series, and I admit its the worst of the four. Of course since the next three are so good being worst isn't so bad. Read more

Too Many Flashbacks, Not enough RoboCop Action
I got RoboCop last night. I watched it and thought there were too many flashbacks in it before Murphy got shipped into Metro South in the First film. Read more

"I'll Be Back"
A reasonably well-told story with a few reasonably unpredictable twists, ROBOCOP: PRIME DIRECTIVES is reasonably entertaining television fare. Read more
