I thought it was awesome. I thought the way it portrayed the borderline fascist government was a really good satire of our current government. And even today, the effects are incredible. It was a bit cheesy, but I think it was supposed to be. I loved it... the first one that is. the second one was garbage. I haven't even wasted my time on the 3rd.
Part of my disgust for the movie was the fact they used the Starship trooper name; the MI are supposed to be highly trained, well Equiped, nuke toting, power armoured Bad-asses, fighting an alien race that is an actual threat(Book bugs had nukes, lasers, and starships of their own.
But what do we get instead? Pansy, hollywood tactics using, hip firing, soap opera wannabe macho-men who die in droves to giant bugs that Modern Earth could chew right through. A MI so retarded that the Bugs outsmart them, several times infact. Mind you the Bug hive mind isn't that good to begin with, and they still are capable of kicking humanities ass.
If they had stuck with the original name for that movie then they could possibly be forgiven, but now?
Damn you Hollywood, damn you.
