Starship Troopers (1997)
Update: 2025-07-18
Description
After the flop of 1995's Showgirls, director Paul Verhoeven decide to return to sci fi satire, which had brought him previous success with Robocop and Total Recall.
The movie was critically panned and under performed at the box office but has since grown cult status, spawned straight to video sequels and an animated series.
Many consider the movie misunderstood feeling many didn't understand the satire on it's release.
James Rowe from The King Street Cinema in Ipswich joins me to discuss Starship Troopers, we both saw it on the big screen on its release and enjoyed it. Do we feel the same nearly 30 years later?
