Sunday, Aug 17, 2025 7:45 PM
Take a detour and enlist in the “Mobile Infantry” with Paul Verhoeven’s misunderstood “unsung masterpiece” action-science fiction satire!
Based on the 1959 novel by Robert A. Heinlein, in the distant future, the Earth is at war with a race of giant alien insects. Little is known about the Bugs except that they are intent on the eradication of all human life. But there was a time before the war… A Mobile Infantry travels to distant alien planets to take the war to the Bugs. They are a ruthless enemy with only one mission: survival of their species no matter what the cost…
After countless retrospectives, articles, and interviews with the cast and filmmakers, Starship Troopers’ critical reception and cultural influence have only grown, often being cited by several filmmakers, like Quentin Tarantino, James Wan, and Ari Aster, as being one of their favourites.
