    0:53 Watkins final "get out of here" is so perfect, followed by the incredible swelling of the score.
    You can feel the pain and fear losing to his bravery in his voice. Then Rico's "MOVE".

    Rodger Wilton Young (April 28, 1918 - July 31, 1943) was a United States Army soldier during World War II. An infantryman, he was killed on the island of New Georgia while helping his platoon withdraw under enemy fire. For his actions, he posthumously received the United States' highest military decoration, the Medal of Honor. Young was part of a 20-man patrol that was sent out to reconnoiter Japanese territory. By 4:00 p.m., the patrol was returning to the American lines along a trail when they were ambushed.[3] The men were pinned down by intense fire from five Japanese soldiers in a machine gun pit concealed on higher ground 75 yards (69 m) away. Two soldiers were killed in the initial burst and Young was wounded. As the patrol attempted a flanking attack, two more soldiers were killed. At this point, the patrol commander ordered a withdrawal.
    Young ignored the lieutenant's order to withdraw and instead, despite his wound, began creeping towards the Japanese position.[3] Another machine gun burst wounded Young a second time, but he continued his advance, attracting enemy fire and answering with rifle fire. When Young was close enough to the machine gun emplacement, he began throwing hand grenades at it. Young was hit by enemy fire and killed.
    However, Young's determined actions caused several enemy casualties and enabled his platoon to withdraw from the ambush without further casualties.

      Also did you know that Rodger Young was actually a Sergeant, but because of his age and worsening eyesight and hearing he felt that it would be detrimental to a group of soldiers for him to lead. So he requested from his Regiment Commander to reduce to the rank of Private, because he didn't want to jeopardize the life of his men.

      I find it funny that the director said his goal was to show this system of government was only good for killing bugs, then he created a bug race that would easily overwhelm and kill our modern society and against which division would only lead to extinction.
      Of course, like all directors converting a book to a movie (with the exception of LotR), he discarded several things from the book. I just hadn't expected, when I first watched this movie in 1999, that he would discard the power armor and actual system of government used in the book.

    One of the best scenes of the movie. Made even better by the fact that they used actual rifles and blanks in production. So you actually get the shell casings flying out of the bolt instead of a gun flashing with nothing happening.

      It seems like it would take mental gymnastics to see it that way, like you have to come at it from this really weird and particular angle of meta interpretation and selectively accept SOME parts of the film as "real" and OTHERS as "in universe propaganda." I've actually seen people try to claim the *entire film* is the latter and it's like "Um, ok? Then how do you know *anything real* about the film's world if your only exposure is the film?"

      That's pretty much the point. What is this dude dying for? So the humans can capture a brain bug in a war that they initiated? How many bugs did they mow down during the course of the movie? The movie intentionally makes you sympathize with the human protagonists the same way most people sympathize with their own country's role in a war while it is happening, regardless of whether it is called for.

    This movie is possibly the best example of how to NOT make a satirical movie. Verhoeven was trying to make some kind of statement about the dangers of fascism, the military etc - and he ends up making a movie that is clearly NOT fascist, but also shows off all the virtues of military service. This movie was the stepping stone that made me want to join the military by showing the camaraderie and bravery that goes with it.
