The best Verhoeven movie ever, 18 April 1999
10/10
Author: Dani-49

No need to tell this is the best Verhoeven work in my opinion, and one of the best European films I've ever seen. Funny, realistic and psychedelic, this film is so catchy that you don't even notice the time passing by. Rutger Hauer is in one of his first roles here, and appears in the nude almost all the time. Many will enjoy...
