Starship Troopers (1997)

Posted on 04:57 by uthpa
Recommended
USA
Feature Film
Director: Paul Verhoeven
Writers: Ed Neumeier, Robert A. Heinlein
Cinematographer: Jost Vacano
Composer: Basil Poledouris
Cast: Casper Van Dien, Dina Meyer, Denise Richards, Jake Busey, Neil Patrick Harris, Clancy Brown, Seth Gilliam, Patrick Muldoon, Michael Ironside

Verhoeven’s viscerally compelling, blackly comic, and cynically perceptive sci-fi film presents a satirical portrait of a group of Buenos Airean high school graduates, who sign up for the armed forces, in a culturally homogenised, Americanised military dictatorship, following them as they become involved in their War on Bugs (which proves to be eerily foreboding of the American-lead War on Terror).
