  • I wonder what happened to this reviewer guy. His reviews were awesome. Shame there isn't more.

  • I don't understand... are you sarcastic when you say this is the greatest movie ever made? If so, why are you seemingly saying you love the movie? If not, then why are you making fun of lots of things in the movie? I don't understand.... you think it's the greatest movie ever made or not? No, seriously - you're confusing me. :/

  • I love the book Starship Troopers and I absolutely hate this movie. In fact, I think it may well be my least favorite movie I've ever seen. It's does such a dishonor to the book, and is absolutely positively nothing like it.

  • Hey whats the song which plays at the prom night in the background

  • yeah lucky lol the bugs KILLED DIZ!!1! lol

  • Pretty amusing review/summation of the film. One of the most misunderstood movies of the 90's. It has more of a resemblance to the book than most people give it credit for in terms of Military analysis/satire. The cardboard cut-out characters perfectly match the people in the book, who are nothing but puppets voicing Heinlein's own militaristic beliefs throughout. The book is just a vehicle for his views but raises some interesting questions never the less. The CGI was and still is, outstanding.

  • Actually.. the movie was not very good.. the BOOK was much better, and had a deeper meaning.. the screen writer and director of this movie screwed the pooch. Wanna see what Starship troopers should be, read the book.. totally different than the movie..

  • @docfate "Actually.. the movie was not very good.. the BOOK was much better"

    Actually, this film was amazingly good. It was one of the most incredibly subversive films I've ever seen, but most Americans are so stupid that they took it at face value.

  • @fuzzywzhe I disagree with you 100%.. If you are looking at the movie as being the movie version of the book, then this movie is not very good. If you want to know what the author was truly trying to say, you MUST read the book... I found the book much more interesting than the movie.. in fact I often go back and read the book every couple of months, because I like it THAT much. Do yourself a favor, before you comment again, read the book and then tell me this movie is greater than the book.

  • @docfate "I disagree with you 100%.. If you are looking at the movie as being the movie version of the book"

    I'm not.

    I've read the book when I was in my teens, it was an OK book. This film however basically sets out who the good guys and bad guys are, and as the film develops shows you that the good guys aren't good guys at all. It perfectly showed how propaganda works in modern society.

    You remember 9/11 don't you. Do you remember Operation Ajax though? That's what caused 9/11.

  • @docfate If you read the book when you were a teenager, you will miss the subtle message that is in the book. As a teenager, all I wanted to read about was the fights and tech etc.. but when I read the book as an adult, I get a whole different message, and it is MUCH more interesting story in the book that was portrayed in the movie. The movie is supposed to be what TEENS want the book to be, all fights, tech, and guns.. where the books message is more a coming of age story..

  • @docfate "The movie is supposed to be what TEENS want the book to be, all fights, tech, and guns.. where the books message is more a coming of age story.. "

    My coming of age was when I realized my "democratic republic government" - wasn't.

    The film perfectly reflected that. You have to remember this film was made before 9/11 - yet it captured exactly what the United States did after 9/11. If you know something about US foreign policy, you can see how much propaganda the US uses today.

  • StarShip Troopers 1 -- AWESOME!!!GREAT!!!

    StarShip Troopers 2 -- SUCKED!!!WASTE OF TIME!!!

    StarShip Troopers 3 -- Average...and i hoped Carl and Carmen were with Rico in the movie

  • your right carmen was such a hoe

  • 6:05 - PWND

  • DAMMIT YOUTUBE! Put the audio back in!

  • starship troopers AWSOME !

  • lol they nerfd your sound

  • WMG == World Massive Grab == Fascist Takeover

  • This videos title is a long known FACT!

  • WMG strikes again!

  • oh that is just bull shut

  • First, Total BS for YouTube taking the audio out. Second, the fixed version is out now.

  • wheres audio asshole? thanks youtube. prepare to take anal from the long dick of the users

  • wtf? They removed the audio track for this!?

  • "Johnny Rico, you kill bugs good"

    this movie is made with ultimate awesome.

  • If anyone wants to see this movie it's on Hulu for free. (Just need to make an account)

  • Sure, it's campy, it doesn't follow the book, and it has consistency and logical errors, but it's just so damn fun to watch. I love Starship Troopers, favorite movie of all time!

  • The facists are the heroes!

    Dizzy is a chick, but still dies!

    Capser Van Dien acts!

    Neil Patrick Harris is cool again!

    Everyone dies!

    I bought the book after watching the film, and while all they share in common appears to be some names and insects, I find both of them to be terrific works in their respective fields (for obviously different and contrary reasons).

  • what were you criticing Casper's acting or were you like me thinking this is the only good work he's done (outside of monk).

  • His best movie, rather (still not saying much).

  • Just rented this film on Blue-Ray, I find myself continually re-watching many of the effects sequences. Absolutely spectacular special effects, (I think I.L.M. was responsible for the many sick scenes in this flick), the movie is great Sci-Fi stuff.

  • is starship troopers 3 any good?

  • It's meh. Not nearly as good as 1, but a hell of a lot better than that piece of crap 2.

  • I've never seen this movie. Is it really any good???

  • it is great!

  • My better taste says no, but my inner nerd says yes. I shamefuly admit that I enjoy starship troopers, haha.

  • that high school was the doctors clinic that i went to. it is located in City of Industry, CA

  • Dr. Black u r sooooo rite about carmen-slut bag-pilot but still my fav movie its the best u got that rite

  • Starship troopers, yes is a great film! ST2 is not as bad as he says, yes they needed to spend another 1 million on FX, but the writing acting and editing were good.

  • you're a cunt.

  • your mother

  • Dr. Black, i really hope you didn't see Starship Troopers 3... I got in a coma for 2 weeks after seeing that movie, first one was sooo much better.

  • I have to wholeheartedly agree. I was a fan of the first and own the animated series...the 3rd movie was the worst B rated piece of garbage I've seen in a long time. Too bad I'd like to see another good one.

  • At 8:01 to the end of the video, what is the name of that song?

  • Early thirtees??

    You mean early twentees...

  • no.. early 30s.. he was exaggerating.. but Casper was like 28.

  • And what was I asking actually?

    I can't remember, please help me remember.

    I am very curious...

  • It was a good movie in its own right. It was ultraviolent, just as expected from the director of Robocop.

    But I've read the Heinlein book and was saddened that the only thing it took from the book was space troopers and giant bugs.

    Now there'll never be a good Starship Troopers movie just like the book

  • I loved that movie when I first saw it, but saw it again later and wasn't thrilled... maybe I can try again!

  • DR.BLACK RULES!!!!!!!!!

  • i love this movie its one of my favorites... is this vidio making fun of it? honestly i cant tell

  • Have you seen Starship Troopers 3 yet ?.

    Agree that 2 stinks, as big a let down as Robocop 2-3 and Tremors 2. By the way you really remind of the guy from American Psycho.

  • i cant get enough of this movie

  • i have watched this over 50 times it is the greatest movie ever made in all history.

  • lol this is the greatest video ever made...and I am not being sarcastic.

  • wats the song at 620?

  • yo man if u watch the movie it says on the credits but u can look up the credits on the net and find the song man =]

  • thanks a lot

  • Worst acting of all time in what is without a doubt one of the greatest, most entertaining movies ever.

    I don't think its special effects will ever age a single day, absolutely breathtaking.

  • sst 1 rocks the rest were disappointingly

  • this is a good movieee

  • very cool

  • Too bad that will never happen wagnerologist..

  • to true, where all to childish a species to become to change we wish to see...

  • a very childish archaic species doomed to failure. human beings suck! MI forever

  • All that needs to exist in order to sustain any hierarchy is poverty and ignorence. As far as i can see the people in starship troopers are well fed, have good jobs are happy in a nice clean world without geo-politocal distinctions of any kind, theres no racism, ageism, sexism, thier inteligent, cultured, disciplined people, whom also have achived interstellar travel. This is an example of an apex civilisation. An example to follow..

  • Plus a delicious war with an alien species, once we got that, then we're golden. It's totally plausible.

  • this is great movie, but i have to say that "the greatest movie ever made" dont exist,every time is coming new and better movies and every one says its "the greatest movie ever made".

  • You are a goddamn genius! this was funny as shit and right on target. HOMERUN!

  • Lets see what he could have said... I love you ... I know xD

  • this review is probably your best....

  • "dont get me started on Nazi Dougie Houser..Lmao"

  • this movie could be used as a pro white american, anti illegal alien propaganda documentary

  • not really since it's satire.

  • yea thats what i believe i just used

  • ahh okey then ;)

  • the two direct2video flicks sucked!!!

  • just the 2nd...the 3rd one is pretty good for a straight to dvd movie

  • love Starship Troopers!

  • keep in mind that this movie had an EXTREMELY SMALL BUDGET!

  • The only thing better than Starship Troopers is the movie Aliens!

  • no not really i was really disapointed

  • so is the third one good

  • it was a good movie but the last half got a little preachy for Chritianity

  • so do i buy it or rent it

  • number 3.... not good at all

  • This guy needs a programme, his excellent xD

  • 1 was really good. 2 was.. uhhh.. 3 was in the middle but still bad as 2..

  • the movie sucked read the book

  • agree. are there any other books out there?

  • yea number 2 sucked!

  • It was average. The first is the best. But dont judge a book by its cover!

  • i just saw it, i thought it wasn't that good

  • @zackcrab Can't be any worse than number 3

  • dude starship troopers was a gud movie kinda freaked me out though since i was like 4 or somthin

  • LMAO Thank you, you made my night with laughter and a smile, But I`m glad someone else made the mistake besides myself, in seeing Starship Troopers 2, Like there guns weren`t even firing, they like taped flash lights to there guns and keep clicking them really fast, I hope starship troopers 3 is alittle bit better ,I`ve Seen a Trailer, the only good thing in it I saw, was that Rico is Back =)

  • A decent Sci-Fi-War-Flic would be Aliens by James Cameron.

    This Verhoeven monstrosity is a mix of Beverly Hills 90210, Star Trek:TNG, and Leiningen Versus The Ants. All style, no story. All substance, no soul.

  • compliments!!! more pretty ;)

  • Note the youtube link code says "god" LOL

  • No doubt a refrence to Johnny Rico... a god amongst men.

  • No, Morgan Freeman is a god among men,

    Sexy, sexy voice.

  • Why???

  • He just does, no questions asked.

    Mmmm... Morgan your voice is so sexy! :-)

  • Because he played god in Brecu Almight?

  • Beautiful white people ROFl now lets roll that beautiful violence ;)

  • I just can´t believe how much ignorant people are in this world.

    Yeah i´m pretending that i haven´t seen the 2 movie to, and 3 movie just sucks to, i´m shocked how this movie with like 20 years is better than lots of miserable movies from actual days.

  • OMG, Starship Troopers was as bad as Paul Verhoven's other nightmare, STRIPTEASE. Robocop and Total Recall were the best of the Verhoven films - CLASSICS !

  • it was a really good movie back then, ahead of it's time really, i remember when i was younger i forced my dad to rent it for me, it was a bit scary too it was really cool

  • Don´t you ever get tierd?

  • I really thought this movie was bad. One of the worst movie I ever seen.But that's just my opinion.

  • The novel was great, but the movie was as well in its own way.

    By the way Denise Richards looks like a horse face.

  • 300 dollars and a bus pass lol

  • ahh, u kno, u made some of the best ponts ever, but, i did find one myself, theres like 10,000 soldiers dying, and , most of their bodies get left behind to rot, or thrown in the garbage, why the hell did they let dizzie get a funeral, just cause she shagged him once, soz, just got on my nerves a bit

  • I love your shows...YOU ROCK MAN!!!!!!

  • Why are people so down on this movie? I liked Starship Troopers alot....P.s Denise Richards has the cutest nose of all time-it is-its so cute..

  • that munch my bad

  • I have 1 and 2 dont buy the 2nd one its not a thing like the 1st one no the munch bug killing :'(

  • i agree this is the best movie i ever seen the game owns to

  • Oi GreatestMovieEverMad, now that you've seen the trailer to SST 3, what do you think?

  • It looks like it might just be the single greatest thing since ever!!! Rico is back!!! (and if it sucks, I may have to kill something)

  • Lol, bit extreme, but a reaction none the less.

    Would have prefered a cinema release, at least attempt to get a SST hype goin'.

  • i am VERY happy that Rico is back but to bad that levy couldent be in this movie his like the funny soldier in the team

  • what! ace wont be there! aww thats dissapointing. are they bringing back sujumi? like from the dead? lol

  • to late I already wached S.T.T 2 dam TV always shows the best parts of the movie to make a good comershal. the movie seriously sucked but I hope that S.T.T 3 is going to be better than the last one

  • in the books dizzy was a guy, yeah

  • Starship Troopers isn't the best movie ever made

  • Is there any film, or any achievement yet made by mankind that surpasses it? I think not.

  • Starship Troopers was an excellent novel The movie was a total joke though

  • True man, the novel was great. The movie was like someone raped the book and then aborted it's baby.

  • i was wondering GreatestMovieEverMad now that the starship troopers 3 trailer is out how do u think it looks??

  • i second that opinion! no movie is better than this!

  • and yer he is right DO NOT WATCH THE 2ND STAR SHIP TROOPERS ITS SHIT itll make u never want to watch anuva film like this agen i had to constantly rewatch number 1 to remind myself that its good xD

  • real shame they only had a $10mil budget for 2nd one becoz it made it shit and the 3rd only has $20mil so wont me much better. this one had $100mil hence the awesomeness

  • i spent the next week shooting heroin into my eye lmao

  • haha good job :)

  • Number one kicked some much ass, it was my that was my favorite movie all through the 90's I could not stop watching it. Number two was an incredibly terrible movie I could not believe that they made it. But it was no where near as bad as The Departed thats 3 hours of my life that I'm not getting back.

  • Why are you shouting for medic? The film is not out yet!!!

  • Medic!!!!!

  • I can't wait for starship troopers 3 :Marauder

    Hopefully it wan't be as terrible as Starship Troopers 2. Number 1 was the best even though its not like the book! butwho really cares!

  • you look like play it bogart

  • ment to say #2 sucked extreme ass...very sad... but #1 just awesome

  • How fitting, the Greatest Movie Review Ever Made for the Greatest Movie Ever Made.

  • lmao about the Carmen insults.

  • fuckin badass movie

  • Ok does anyone else think the 'bugs' look a LOT like tyranids. Like someone saw a nid and decided to steal the idea.

  • next you'll be sayng the Federal eagle is on an imperial cross... wait a minute...

  • This is one of the best sci-fi movies of all time. I don't know why a lot of poeple hate it so much.

  • hey everybody,watch this movie again,and you'll see that its just like a comedy,it dosen't make u scared,anxious,it has no great lines,no REAL characters 2relate 2,it actualy sux if u compare it 2other movies,the good movies make u feel what's hapening,not just hear&see.The writer had a realy great ideea,but the director didn't pick the right actors,set,or had the right lines :).Oh btw , starcraft was more intriguing,blizzard realy works on stories,try STARCRAFT/WARCRAFT/DIABLO2
