My rating: 6.5/10
Will I watch it again? No.
When I first saw this in the late 90s I didn't like it one bit. Now I'm a fan of Verhoeven but this just felt cheap. Now I get it. It's a throwback to 50s sci-fi flicks and it totally works. I enjoyed it much more this time around. I still don't think it's a great film but it is fun. I like it but not enough to give the sequels a try. It looks like it all went downhill after this one.
