soldier be not as bad a many have make it out to be . i find the film to have some of the sacarstic and cynical humour like that in paul verhoven starship trooper . the lack of dialogue and over the top action be deliberate and add to the comic book atmosphere . one particular trivia bit stand out for me todd have the name of several space war campaign tattoo would onto his chest and one of these battle be tannhauser gate . for the oblivious one out there and tannhauser gate be mention in roy batty elegiac last line in blade runner . to imagine that todd could have fight alongside android troop like roy be mind boggle to say the least . maybe script writer david people be nostalgic . i will give this one 3 out of 5 .
