This movie really messed with me. I was expecting a space comedy, instead I got knifes in the hand, heads being blown off, and ethnic nudity
'War is hell' is a major theme of the movie and one of the main pieces of evidence for why the satire isn't as ineffective as people claim in my opinion.
Heavily juxtaposes the civilian life where they have this glamorous idea of serving the country and how horrible being in the shit is.

I loved these movies, even the shitty sequels.
Every time I think about Starship Troopers, let alone watch it, it moves up another space closer to being my favorite movie ever. It's in the top 10 now, by this time next week it should be #1

The knife in the hand is incredible. That is a very effective drill sgt.

Same OP.
This movie influenced me more than anything else in my early teens (saw in 1997). The extreme violence, it manipulates you with the sexuality, the gaze from Dizzy, her subsequent death, the efficiency of fascism etc.
I'm still kind of shaken. But I think it was for the best.

The film was better, but hardly related to the book.

You're both wrong, the book was an actual good action space novel, and the movie was made by retarded hippies to sucker in people who read the book and hit them with some WAR IS HELL when they just wanted to watch some space action.

What was I wrong about? I'm the second post.

Fuck off pleb this movie is great. A lot of people take the film too seriously and get their panties in a twist. Verhoven isn't some brilliant social critic like some want to believe but he also isn't a stupid hippie. He just made a great action movie with lots of hilarious black comedy. To me the satirical shit is just a stylistic choice to make the film more entertaining/funny, nothing more and nothing less.
