5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Military-stle themes, November 21, 1999
By Bull Durham (United States) - See all my reviews
This CD is the bomb. When I saw "Starship Troopers" in the theater, I knew I had to have this CD. I've listened to it in my car endlessly. As far as listening to action music goes, probably "The Rock" soundtrack is comparable (though "Starship Troopers" is a little better). I liked the "Glory" soundtrack (during the movie; I'm not enthusiastic about listening to it on its own merits), but the themes on this CD are similar. Plus it captures the futuristic feel of the movie without losing its military aura.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not Enough Music, October 31, 2001
By J. Miller (Memphis, TN USA) - See all my reviews
This CD is too short. The movie contained some wonderful music, but only 36 minutes of it are found here. Even though I liked the selections on the CD (excluding the Zoe Poledouris song at the end), there was too much music missing for it to be anything other than disappointing. ANY movie soundtrack CD that is less than 60 minutes long is a ripoff.

5.0 out of 5 stars A GREAT SOUNDTRACK-From a GREAT MOVIE, January 21, 2000
By Fox Muldur (Houston, Texas) - See all my reviews
I knew even since I saw this movie that I was going to get the Soundtrack, but when I heard the samples I went crazy looking for it. When I eventually got it (it took so freaking long because all of the stores were sold out... no wonder why). The song "I have not been to paradise" is a variation of the song "I have not been to Oxford Town" by David Bowie, I'm not sure why they didn't release this one (I think it's better then "Into it", but they are both good) but this would be a real chart buster...if anybody can get this song or knows how to contact Zoe Poledouris please e-mail me! I would recommend this album for anybody, and your almost certain to like this soundtrack even if you didn't like this movie.

4.0 out of 5 stars Exciting and thoughful!
Basil Poledouris wrote many great scores, and this is no exception. The only complaint about this album is how short it actually is. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Good music, short
I'll be quick and to the point: It is the unique instrumental music to Starship Troopers... but there is only 36 minutes to the entire CD.

5.0 out of 5 stars Powerful Music
Poledoris has written several movie soundtracks I really enjoy. The power and breadth of this composition is just another of his great works. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Zoe Poledouris' version of "I Have Not Been to Oxford Town"
Where did it go? Her version of that song was haunting and memorable. In my opinion, the best piece of music in the entire film. Peculiar that it was never released in full!

4.0 out of 5 stars Some tracks such as "Carmen's Test Flight" are missing.
Everyone has been asking about the song "I have not been to paradise" by Zoe Poledouris. It should have been on the CD since it WAS in the film. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Basil Poledouris shines
From the fast-paced "Bugs!!" to the heroic and thrilling "Klendathu Drop," this soundtrack is every bit as amazing as the movie it accompanied. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Sheer orchestral power
Basil Poledouris, known for writing bombastic action music, does it again with one of his best scores ever. The music is loud, bold, heroic, brassy, and percussive. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great, but where is the paradise song? Anyone??
First this movie was a brilliant work of art and
social commentary. Special effects wise it was
brilliant, and intellectually it was brilliant. Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars Too short, not in order, titled weird.
Well, first of all, this movie has delightful music, unfortunately much of which has been left out. Secondly, I'd enjoy hearing the music moreso in the order of the movie... Read more
