another (trash) movie this clever?!


i really liked "Starshop Troopers"
it was entertaining and funny in a trashy way,
it was exciting and thrilling
and it was a clever critzism of right politics.

is there any other film out there, which is similar?

the only film i can think of, which is similar in the "trash-fun", is "Arac Attack".
I think the most people also dont get the point of this film.
though its far away of being that clever,
but it has a similar tongue in cheek-feeling in this 90s way.

another one, i've to think of, is "They live!",
which is much older, but its also a "tongue in cheek"-B-Movie
and critizising right wing politics
in a typical "scifi"-setting.

do you know more?

Star Wars could be argued to be somewhat along the same vein. The first one that is. 🚀🌌

Freeway in 1996, an early Reese Witherspoon film, is trashy and smart at the same time.

this movie does not criticize "right politics".
