kingerz55 The lurch to the right wing has never been more presciently delineated than here. For generations of people growing up in the Long Peace, this has been a fantasy.
adonis98-743-186503 Humans in a fascistic, militaristic future do battle with giant alien bugs in a fight for survival. Starship Troopers is no Robocop (1987) or Total Recall (1990) but it certainly packs the same energy and brutality of those 2 R-Rated Flicks plus the cast was terrific i mean Dean Norris, Michael Ironside, Denise Richards and more and more. The special effects also looked pretty believable (not always of course but way better than the later entries for sure). Director Paul Verhoeven's style is also shown in some scenes and it's pretty damn awesome, great 90's flick. (8/10)
Osmosis Iron A very misunderstood movie, it's a satire and a very good one! It has a very nice look to it, and the effects were awesome at the time. If you "get it" it's a really funny and enjoyable ride, while also being a good sci-fi action movie.
HaroldNaples It is a mixed bag of terrible acting and eye candy. Great special effects and repetitive action sequences. Poignant satire, boring American style futuristic totalitarianism and one dimensional characters. Its worth a watch for the humour alone which matches that of robocop, the CGI and for the bodies, though there could have been more on the female side. It inherits the flaws of the base material and the little acting talent there is on the set (Michael Ironside, Clancy Brown) does not redeem it.Stay away from the sequels, no joke.
