Starship Troopers (1997)

In director Paul Verhoeven's science-fiction film:

• the brutal, training process by drill instructor Zim (Clancy Brown) - one beefy recruit had his arm broken and another had his hand impaled by a knife
• the infamous uni-sex shower scene with male and female soldiers (Dina Meyer) sharing the same open shower stalls
• the large-scale, visceral, extremely gory battle scenes between humans and mobilized giant alien bugs shown in a swarm
• the surprising, deeply satirical ending in which the entire film was revealed as a gung-ho recruitment ad for the futuristic military
