Johnny's parents don't want him signing up, but where girlfriend Carmen goes, so goes Johnny. The poor guy is dealt the worst hand of all. He's assigned to the Mobile Infantry, which would be cannon fodder to you and me. We should all have such problems. A full scale War erupts between us and the Bugs.
Troopers kicks into overdrive and love becomes secondary to the splattering of Bug brains.
But you already knew that. The battle sequences are bloody and brutal and the gore and body parts fly all over the bigscreen. The basically unknown cast live, love, kill and die with verve, panache and a couple thousand rounds of heavy duty machine gun ammo. Yes indeedy, Cranky saw Starship Troopers twice, and you know what that means. On average, a first run movie ticket will run you Eight Bucks.
