"Starship Troopers" is a war satire that outshines even Kubrick's great film Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb."

Lacking the sophistication of the average comic book, it compensates with panoramic attack sequences, reminiscent of the Japanese swarm attacks in American war movies.

May just be the bug movie to end all bug movies.

...boasts a tongue-in-cheek, downright campy sensibility that ultimately pervades every aspect of the proceedings.

Massive, hilarious and thrilling. I went to lunch a few times with a girl who despised this movie. I was forced to conclude that she's not very smart.

Lacks the courage of the book's fascist conclusions.

A jaw-dropping experience, so rigorously one-dimensional and free from even the pretense of intelligence it's hard not to be astonished and even mesmerized by what is on the screen.

Gory, scary, violent sci-fi is too intense for kids.

Paul Verhoeven's satiric, 1997, sci-fi, war-movie romance is admittedly an acquired taste.

The action sequences are heavily laden with special effects, but curiously joyless.

Insanely subversive...functions as a visually dazzling science-fiction action picture, a philosophical challenge, and a hilarious, incisive comedy. [Blu-Ray]

Maybe the filmmakers are so lost in their slambang visual effects that they don't give a hoot about the movie's scariest implications.
