Dir: Paul Verhoeven
1997
****
Starship Troopers is Paul Verhoeven back doing what he does best. A great political and social parody in the guise of a Sci-fi spaceship/Alien B-Movie action film, although I do get the impression that no one told poor old Casper Van Dien who I've always suspected was duped. The 'Would you like to know more' snippets of satirical propaganda are genius and make the film the original gem that it is.
