    DirectorPaul VerhoevenStarsPeter WellerNancy AllenDan O'Herlihy
    There's just something about the Paul Verhoeven style violence that separates him from everyone else. Seemingly gratuitous, but always to serve as a portrayal of the characters and their environment. Often times, there is a complete lack of remorse from either protagonist or antagonist while committing vicious acts of violence.

    DirectorJohn MiliusStarsPatrick SwayzeC. Thomas HowellLea Thompson
    I'm sure alot of people will disagree but this movie was one that really is much deeper than it appears. Many critics don't realize that this is actually a movie with a strong message of the anti-war persuasion. Swap the Colorado setting of the film with a small town in Russia or China and you get the idea.
