Total Recall Vs. Robocop Vs. Starship Troopers: Which Is The Better Paul Verhoeven Movie

Movies

The Action

This one is simple. Which one has the most exciting action?

RoboCop’s Action

RoboCop has blood and gore galore, and all of it’s exaggerated with great intention. Still, even though the film is a commentary on the numbing effect of violence, it still looks freaking badass. Especially the scenes with the stop-motion ED-209 robot. Awesome stuff.

Total Recall’s Action

Total Recall is an espionage movie at its heart, so there’s plenty of sci-fi gunplay, as well as cool hand-to-hand combat. But for a 1990’s Arnold Schwarzenegger film, it’s a lot more cerebral than combative.

Starship Troopers’ Action

Starship Troopers shows the effects of war as the soldiers fight alien bugs, but it’s really not all that interesting. For a much more visually impressive movie about soldiers fighting bug-like aliens, see Edge of Tomorrow.

The Action Victor – RoboCop

By being a commentary on violence, it actually delivers the most exciting action by far. Strange how that happened, but it did.
