Great misunderstood film.
||Posted .Twenty years ago, most critics and film goers misunderstood this satirical masterpiece as a glorification of fascism. This film is the exact opposite of that false narrative. This film shows how fascism uses patriotism and blind obedience to hold power. It shows how 'sexy' and appealing fascism can seem to be. With everything going on in the world today, this film is as timely as ever. It was just twenty years ahead of its time.

It's cheesy, campy, nostalgic, and fantastic!
||Posted .I have always loved a good action filled sci-fi movie. Some of my favorite films have always been Alien, The Terminator, Predator, and The Thing (1984) just to name a few. But there was one movie that flew under my radar until I was in college (2010) and would become one of my all time favorites for the action sci-fi genre Starship Troopers. This movie has it all great battle scenes, a set of characters that we get to see grow, a cheesy love plot, and of course Michael Ironside being Michael Ironside. This movie was hated when it first came out but it has grown into a great cult film, and of course it can be analyzed for its political elements too. The 4k transfer for this film was a little weaker then I was expecting, I actually forgot that the movie was mastered in HDR most of the time, and when compared to other transfers of classic movies to 4k hdr this one does not offer as much as i was expecting. The Atmos soundtrack on the other hand is fantastic, especially when the arachnids are flying overhead and there is constant action on screen. So if ou are picking this up for the picture quality, i would get the regular blu ray but if are Atmos enabled then by all means prepare for a great time!

Pure ‘90s Action Cheese
||Posted .God bless Paul Verhoeven. This man know she how to bring together the perfect levels of action, satire, and effects to create some of the most iconic films of the ‘80s and ‘90s! Starship Troopers operates in the vein of RoboCop and Total Recall before it by creating fun and likable characters and tossing them into a creatively rich world and entertaining action sequences. While the effects could be argued to be lackluster, I feel that they were purposefully rendered this way to tie into the over the top nature of the film and just makes it an incredibly fun thrill ride. Seeing this film in gorgeous 4K is really the ultimate way to experience this film! This set comes packed with hours of special features to celebrate the 20th anniversary and also includes a free digital copy.

Would you like to know more?
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This movie is so awesome, it's hard to say enough good things about it! I enjoy anything by Paul Verhoeven, and this is no exception. Even after over 20 years this movie still looks great and is such a fun ride. I haven't watched all the special features yet, but the movie itself is glorious and sounds epic. Whether it's your first time or your 50th, the only good bug is a dead bug!
