Starship Troopers

Pros: Special effects kick any other movie in the rear end, future vision is great
Cons: Pretty bad acting, with exceptions

Woo hoo. (The song I had hoped would be on this movie's soundtrack, but ISN'T). But that's now what I'm here to write an opinion on.

To start off fair, I have not read the book "Starship Troopers". I plan on it eventually, but I...

Pros: Gore, action, and some awesome special effects.
Cons: More than I can name.

Pros: Plenty of action scenes
Cons: Unjustified bloodshed, horrible acting and directing

I must be one of the few people that just didn't see the point of this movie. Sure, it was fun. Yeah, I enjoyed watching limbs get torn off people. I even enjoyed watching people melt. There's a problem with that though, I shouldn't be...

Pros: The effects were kinda nice...
Cons: EVERYTHING else.

When Starship Troopers previews first came out, I thought, "Wow..this movie looks really cool. But can they pull it off?" I made it a point to go to the theater the first weekend it came out to see for myself.

Well....they didn't...

Pros: Better Than a Stick in the Eye
Cons: Lots of Gore/ Sort of Dopey

I was bored. There was nothing on TV. The honeymoon of cable seems to be nearly over. So, I asked my roommate if she had any videos. She returned with four, as she said, completely random choices. The first was a Christmas special. Ah, no. The...

Pros: Great Special Effects, Lots of shooting of bugs, TONS of fun
Cons: Not so hot plot, Average Acting, Dialogue seriously needs work

This movie is loosely based on the classic Robert Heinline Novel of the same name. By loosely I mean to say (and I have read the book) that they take a few themes and some of the names of characters and re-do everything for the movie. This movie is NOT...

Pros: Special Effects are well done
Cons: The story, the acting, the money you have to spend to watch it

I don't know what it is about the Sci-Fi thrillers that have come out in the last few years, but they are all effects and no substance.

The problem I'm having is that I spend $7.50 at the movie theater for a ticket, when I could have just...

Pros: good special effects, light on the seriousness
Cons: doesn't follow book,

I honestly think that whenever someone tries to review this movie, they hold it under a microscope because there is no way that it can be real. My advice to these people.... WHO CARES? So what if they are killing bugs on a different planet? I really...

Pros: lots of action
Cons: Violent!

Starship Troopers is a GREAT action film. It also contains a little romance, as does every film these days. The plot is basically a group of friends (More people are added to the group as the movie goes on) the enlists in a futuristic military. The goal...

Pros: hyper action, sly cynicism, good acting, affecting soundtrack.
Cons: killings (future war)

If pixels could speak in the chemical languages of testosterone and adrenaline, then this film would be the purest proof. It's an absolute trip.

The ultra-action, ultra-tense-density of this film affected me and my friends physically. We were...

Pros: after a few more films
Cons: Take no prisoners

There are so many good things in this film but, even though I liked it, I would not recommend it to anyone.

This is an honest effort at creating something different. The look and feel of the film is great. We get to watch raw recruits become...

Pros: Good soundtrack, AWESOME special effects, decent storyline, decent acting.
Cons: Kinda leaves the feeling that the story isn't finished... You never really get closure.

Overall I really enjoyed this movie... Granted, there were some fairly corny scenes. For example, in the war against bugs, everyone is doing their part... "I'm doing my part" as a bunch of kids stomp on cockroaches while a mother laughs with...

Pros: Sub-plots, Action, Courage, Humor & Special Effects
Cons: Flawed Science & Weaponry

I tried to write a comprehensive opinion on the movie “Starship Troopers”. It is very long and in depth. If you are not prepared to read the whole opinion and take this opinion in it’s full context, PLEASE DO NOT RATE THIS...

Pros: Great effects, typical ending
Cons: gory, a little too graphic; script is lacking

My husband got me 'sucked' into this movie, and honestly, I was disappointed in the story line. The effects were fantastic, but I think it would have been a better movie, overall, if they had put some of that money into the script.

The actors...

Pros: Believable adversaries, and real grittiness.
Cons: Violence not suitable for small children

Starship Troopers
This film is the long awaited screenplay based on Robert Heinlein's
book of the same title. The problem that had delayed the film for years
was how to make the bugs look real. With the introduction of more...
