I love this movie so much

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Absolutely Fantastic

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Holy makerel, how did I end up on this page? Right, after cringing at the dismal career of director Roger Christian, many gleefully bad reviews for "Battlefield Earth" and realizing that Christian was actually responsible for one of my first cinematic epiphanies.See, as a wee lad, I was convinced that everything Science-Fiction was perfect. Didn't matter whether "2001", "Omega Man" or a Japanese Gozilla film. The good, the bad and the ugly where all good and wholesome to me; until my dad brought me a VHS-copy of "Starship" and for the first time in my long life, I reached for the controller and actually pressed STOP during the second half of a science fiction film! "Enough", reeled my young mind. "Why bother finishing this crap"? A realisation set in that there are films really not worth sitting through.Honestly, since I've spent many precious hours on utter garbage, b-films cheapos – sometimes regretting, sometimes not – but I've never finished watching the last half of "Starship". And I'm still kinda proud of that.Let's just hope that "Starship" will never be transferred from VHS, never makes it unto DVD or the internet and will just one day be forgotten in time and space … it's the best it deserves. No points from me although IMDb forces me to give at least one. A

Yow, I remember this movie when it came out in the 80's. There I was, with a bunch of friends, I was about 15, popcorn in hand, expecting to see a great sci-fi movie at the theater.We were all disappointed. The plot was totally unoriginal, the b-grade acting & the special effects were a let down. The masks they used for the bots were ugly, and the ship designs were bad. 18 years later, they stick in my head like a bad, umm, movie.The whole underground resistance idea could have worked if they put more idea and thought into the story line and had somewhat of an interesting dialogue, but there is none worth remembering. To be fair, the movie is probably better then some of the garbage that we see today that passes as sci-fi, but that's not saying much.3 out of 10

STARSHIP is touted in the tagline as a "warp speed adventure". Instead of being anything like an adventure this film throws great visuals at the audience and absolutely no story. STARSHIP is weird and disappointing, and not worth viewing or effort it takes to thrust it in a VHS deck.

Lorca and his friends are fighting against a Robot-Army that is controlled by the evil commander of their colony. They are in underground an are kidnapping and reprogramming some robots to have a better stand against the overwhelming forces of the "Empire". Last but not least there always has to be a little love-story ;=)
