"When people jerk me off, I kill them!" Masterpiece. Looks great, score rules, satire is absolutely on point all the way down. That employee's excitement as their boss is about to be shot through the window. "Lee Iacocca Elementary School" as a throwaway detail. I'd buy…

Patrick WillemsJan 17, 2014Whenever I hear people say this is dated I want to slap the nonsense out of them.

Metacritic
Great effects and a nasty undercurrent drive this vehicle.

Austin Chronicle
There's a brooding, agonized quality to the violence that almost seems subversive, as if Verhoeven were both appalled and fascinated by his complicity in the toxic action rot.
