On one level Starship Troopers works as an intense sci-fi/action flick with great battle scenes and spectacular special effects. But going beyond that it provides excellent commentary on fascism, power and war.

Living in a militaristic future, our heroes, high school graduates at the start of the film, feel it is their civic duty to serve. They do this not fully realizing just what ... read more

Yes, it is kinda stupid at times, but if you don't expect much in terms of scintillating dialog, just stay for the parts where they blow up the bugs and stuff. You don't have ... read more

Some people love it, some people hate it. I love it. This was one of the last movies directed by Paul Verhoeven before getting kick out of Hollywood. Unfortunately, it wasn't a success and it didn't help recoverning the damages caused by 'Showgirls'. To be honest, I think it is a shame and, in my opinion, it is definitely the most underrated movie directed by Paul Verhoeven and, in fact, it is pro... read more

"19.7. Disney+ Uusintakatselu. Kunnioitin Paul Verhoevenin 85-vuotispäivää päivän perästä erittäin tarpeellisella uusinnalla. "Fasistisen maailmankuvansa" kanssa on Starship Troopersin satiiri jopa Verhoevenin mittarilla tavattoman Üveriä, mutta ah niin miellyttävää. Edelleen vaikea ymmärtää, miten aikanaan tämä ei auennut. Varsinkaan amerikkalaiselle yleisÜlle."

" Date: 7/4/2022 Viewed: 4K UHD Re-watch Note: Given that Starship Troopers is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, I felt like watching it again. Back in the late 1990s, when I was a kid, Starship Troopers was a big deal. I had the toys, watched it countless times on VHS, and even watched the short lived cartoon show on TV. In my first grade classes in late 1997, it was one of the most discussed movies. My friends and I were more interested in discussing Starship Troopers, Alien Resurre"
