Pros: Humor, Action Cons: Cheese, Acting, lack of character development
The hero is in love with the popular girl at school. The popular girl is in love with some other hunk. The tomboy is in love with the hero. The hero wouldn’t realize that the tomboy is a babe if she stripped naked and jumped on him. The popular girl...

Pros: Some inapprobriate female nudity Cons: It's 100% Crap
In the 1950's Robert A. Heinlein wrote the novel "
Starship Troopers. It was good story, taking the old tough D.I. turning boys into men saga into the not so distant future. The society he created, where the voting franchise is limited to military...

Pros: Naked women and stuff going BOOM!! Cons: None really, this ain't Citizen Kane ya know.
I never wanted to see this movie. I usually really dig these shoot-em-up movies and if they happen to be in space, even better but for some reason this one just didn't look good.
Maybe it was the name, Starship Troopers just sounded cheesy....

Pros: hot actors/actresses getting naked, sex, blood, guts, soundtrack Cons: too much gore for some people
This is definitely a guy movie. Other than Denise Richards, the main reason i saw this movie, there were plenty of deaths, explosions and alien guts.
Starship troopers was a decent movie, enhanced by special effects, characters, and an awesome...

Pros: Great plot, newsreels, Dina Meyer! Rrgglle! Cons: They kill Dina Meyer off and let Denise Richards live, the bastards!
My dad rented this movie a couple of years ago, and it was pretty cool. Since then, I've seen it a few times.
I think one of the best ways to describe this movie in one sentence is this: A good theme song for this movie would have been...

Pros: has depth Cons: sells out
Verhoeven’s savage satire on the glorification of war is to die for. It comes at you full force with the corniness of ‘doing your bit for your country/society’. All the bright young things who want nothing more than to join the military like some cool...

Pros: Great Period Sci-Fi Film Cons: Most People Didn't Understand It
Starship Troopers is definitely one of my "Top Ten of All Time" movies.
First off, anyone who has a decent DVD player, surround sound system, and big screen (HD)TV should own this disc if for no other reason that it truly shows off...

Pros: It used up some of the writer's hopefully short life. Cons: Pro-Fascist, Pro-Racist, Pro-War, TERRIBLE AND OFFENSIVE
This was a terrible, terrible movie. It centers around an intersteller conflict between Humans and some "bug planet" that is hurling meteors our way. The viewer follows the paths of three high school friends as they enter and work their way up...

Pros: Denise Richards Cons: Everything but denise richards
This is a blight on sci-fi movies around the world. In essence a team of untalented producers and writers brough together some young actors who they thought would be appealing to teenagers and coupled them with a story line that anyone with two brain...

Pros: Excellent CG Animation, Actors Fit Roles Well Cons: A Lot of Violence(?), Doogie Houser
This one falls into my 'not so bad on first watch' and 'gets better after I watch it a few times' categories. I went to watch this movie after first reading about it in Sci-Fi magazine. It looked interesting. I've always been interested in movies...

Pros: Gender f**k, pretty people, funny scenes Cons: Graphic violence, unbelievable
The soap-opera look of the characters in this movie are at odds with their kick ass personalities, in the same way that the gratuitous violence contrasts with the high school love drama. What a great job the filmmakers did of pulling off this collection...

Pros: Great military and sci-fi themes Cons: Misses some points from the book
Am I the only one who noticed that this movie seems to be a lot like the old commercials shown on the History Channel from World War II. I love the campy propoganda and gratuitous gore. This movie was great, however I believe that it kind of missed a lot...

Pros: Wonderful effects-Doogie the telepath-and great action Cons: mild acting-predictable-and bland dialouge
In 1998 Starahip Troopers came out. It drew me to it with its flashy special effects and the story it was based on. Neil Patrick Harris, Casper Van Dein, and Dina Meyer star in a fast paced action thriller. The effects were spectacular. ...

Pros: None Cons: Violent, useless, boring, dumb, mindless
If you like senseless, plotless and mindless films, than you sure as heck will enjoy this movie. The film's plot revolves around two things. The first being violence and death. The second being a teenage Soap gone seriously wrong. The romance plot...
