Pros: Sci-fi camp done with quality. Cons: Lots and lots of gooey bug guts!
This is a film I only watched by chance -- I thought it was something else. Here is one of those flicks you won’t believe anyone would really enjoy. Also, I think you may have to be a little different in the sense of humor department, but I qualify...

Pros: I cannot possibly fill this space in with one good word Cons: The cartoon version is much more entertaining
I'm a huge fan of sci-fi and was completely aghast by this movie!
I am just thankful I didn't spend $8 plus dollars seeing it at the movie
theater!
Bad enough myself and a group of friends picked this movie out for some late...

Pros: Nothing really stands out... Cons: Everything else...
Even taking in to consideration that the movie is trying to be a sci-fi campy movie it is too much to take. I mean aliens that shoot explosives out of their nether regions that can take down not only space ships but also small cities on Earth. I mean how...

Pros: Nothing, Hilarious at times Cons: Bad Acting, Poor Plot, Bad Effects
I saw this movie because my friend recommended we watch it. The plot was so devastatingly bad, that I will just say that it dealt with friends growing up and fighting aliens in different fields (space, army, government). Although the premise could have...

Pros: Everything is superb about it. Cons: It ended.
Finally, a movie that does justice to Heinlein. The effects have finally begun to catch up with imagination. A devoted fan, I was hesitant to see any more adaptations after The Puppet Masters and Stranger in a Strange Land. These two didn't require...

Pros: realistic combat, good effects Cons: needs more of the book.
I really enjoyed this movie because it really showed how overconfident we are, and what happens when we let that get to our head. I enjoyed this movie because it made alot of good points about society in general. The storyline was very well done and...

Pros: none Cons: no plot, bad acting, a through waste of time
Oh, how to begin. It is a good thing that I first saw this movie at home because I would have walked out of the theater and demanded my money back. It was so bad it was funny. What a disappointment...There are so few good science fiction movies. ...

Pros: Effects Cons: Good acting....not great acting
I watched this movie expecting good special effects and nothing else. What I got was a bug blasting joy ride!
I will keep this simple and sweet. I hear a lot of people talking about the glorifying of war. The way I see it is war is real, it...

Pros: The future benchmark for all Science Fiction movies Cons: None you can't forgive or overlook
I LOVE this film, I LOVE this book, I LOVE this soundtrack. There is nothing about Starship Troopers I have ever found disappointing.
The book is one of the very few that I had read and went straight back to the start to read it again. So I...

Pros: Deeper underlying meaning; fantastic Special effects Cons: Little character development leads to empty feeling after movie ends.
Starship Troopers was known for one thing, and that was the gore.
However the main meaning of the movie was lost due to that. This movie
is a social...

Pros: Some really hot actresses, nice sex scenes, very funny Cons: Casper van Dien
'Ahh 'Starship Troopers'..this should fulfil my urge for senseless violence movies on a Friday night!' I thought to myself as I looked at the TV guide. What I got was exactly what I was expecting. Senseless violence! And plenty of it!! Aside from this,...

Pros: Graphics, acting, edge of the seat action Cons: Gory,not for everyone,Personal interaction from the book sacrificed for the action.
The thing that bugged me was that the movie was much more into the fighting of the bugs than following the book and character development.(Pie with a fork ).It is an excellent movie and the effects are amazing,but this movie is *not* for the squeamish.If...

Pros: Good storyline. Cons: Bad acting and didn't follow story well.
I saw this movie because i had read the fabulous book. I thought the movie had very good graphics and was funny at some times, but sad at others. And also the acting was horrible but the storyline closely followed the book. Also, the suits and...

Pros: Good action, political satire, subtle tongue-in-cheek humor Cons: Bad acting, corny plot, horrible dialog
Ok, the movie has bad acting, horrible dialog, and a corny plot. Many people might feel cheated of their money afterwards. Then why the positive review? Well I think this movie is way misunderstood.
First of all, there are some good action...
