Summary: Tromas war
Review: A shoot em up about a group of air crash survivors stranded on a desert island.This ragtag bunch soon find themselves fighting terrorists bent on taking over the United States with the aids virus.Made by the creators of the toxic avenger this frequently tastless flick combines violent action with totally deadpan comedy.Two versions R rated and Directors cut directors cut has way more gore than the R rated.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Troma's War
Review: After a Tromatic plane crash on an island somewhere off the face of Cuba, a few spirited Tromaville Citizens are about to find out the harsh reality of guerilla warfare. It is only a short period of time before the battle for life and death begins in one of Troma's ultimate masterpieces. If you like Troma, an interesting plot, or just a plain bloodbath, then Troma's war has it all. Though not the best Troma film, it is still worth getting. Unfortunately, it doesn't measure up to the wonderfully black standards of Terror Firmer, but then again, what could? It is still an amazing film, and a good storyline.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: ohh god, its those Troma freaks again!
Review: I must say that, even for Troma, this one was pretty bad. A plane crash leaves tourists stranded on a tropical island that happens to be the home base of a group of nasty terrorists. Now, think Troma: how would YOU work with this plot? Needless to say, there are MANY dead before it ends. I thought there was a limit to the amount of blood and guts one could put into a movie (and smear on a woman's breasts) untill I saw "War". The movie is rather low quality, not like some of the newer Troma releases, but if you like classic Troma, it dosn't get any more classic than this. Not one for the kiddies!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Pretty boring for Troma
Review: I still don't understand people liking this pretty dull movie. It made me angry the first, second, and last time I saw it. I kept trying to give it another chance. Even though it has Aids jokes, tons of dead bodies, and even a woman's thingies blowing up it just wasn't good. Mr.Kaufman didn't know if he was making a gory Troma film or a semi-serious action movie. The main characters are lame, they are way too serious, they kill all the fun. The guy who cuts off ears, the punk band, and the British agent rule! But the "serious" characters seem to bash the movie to death and suck all the life out of it in a lame TV sitcom kind of way. This is Troma at its worst, conforming.

Fortunately this film went more unnoticed than most Troma flicks, and despite Kaufman saying its a masterpiece I still think its [not good]. They soon realized that this wasn't the direction to go and went back hardcore. Seeing their newest film Terror Firmer brings me relief they have long forgot about a seriously dull mistake they made a long time ago. This isn't even worth renting, there's and R rated and unrated version, they both [stink].

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Bng,Bang you're dead 50000000000 bullets in your head.
Review: Plotless? You bet. Tasteful? Erm... Oscars? This is Troma we're talking about. This delightful movie involves a planeload of tourists crash landing on a carribean island(well New Jersey anyway) and discovering an army barracks filled with terrorists plannng to destroy the U.S. These people take it upon themselves to kill all of these terrorists and save America. There's more gunfire in this than in all other war films put together, in fact you could run out to the store and buy a fresh six-pack and the SAME battle is still raging. This movie's prime midnight material and a good laugh.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Revolutionary propaganda never smelled so good!
Review: This film turns the tables on the Bush/Reagan-approved "military chic" of the eighties, taking the Ubermerikkkan propaganda that was GI JOE and Rambos II and III and turning it around into a call to arms for the common man against the elites that opress us. As "out-there" as the bad guys (and good guys) seem in this film, you must keep in mind that they are all charicatures to show us how wall street will stab you in the back to protect his neck and pocketbook, how the church has had its tongue ripped out by the powers that be (though it sings on through the blood), and how the true American spirit (not to mention our children's free will) can only be saved when we seperate Military and Monetary powers. Even through the (once-again) EXTREMELY GI JOE-esque visuals, storytelling and soundtrack, this film uses powerful symbolism in the manner of Dali's "Le Sangre D'un Poete" and Orwell's "Animal Farm" to push us over the edge and into seeing what our (barely) free minds are up against. All great art is shocking at the time of release, dated as expired within three weeks, and (seeing how everything in this film is coming true) we will all be studying Troma's War in art school in fifty years tops! If you don't believe that, then you probably think our president was elected legally. Welcome to the Infiltration, I hope you brought a condom!

Steer clear of the R-rated version, as it has had not only its tongue, but also it's heart severed by the MPAA. Not a film for normal Tromites just looking for cheap thrills - THIS IS A THINK PIECE!*

Summary: a must for action fans
Review: this is possibly troma's best film. ther plot concerns plane crash survivors battling terrorists on a beach. i would compare this to die hard and john woo's films.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: I cant believe I'm reviewing this.
Review: This movie is so tasteless, that it scares me that even one person gave it a good review. I mean come on, a pig nosed commando(yeah right) and a bunch of accomplices who would have trouble successfully making toast are gonna infiltrate the U.S. infrastructure and wreak havoc with the Aids virus? Asnd they are thwarted no less than by a bunch of air crash survivors who have to screw each other before they can muster up the guts to stop this evil plot. Oh man this is bad!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: TROMA'S WAR
Review: TROMA'S WAR is a classic twisted action film from Troma Films. The film is about a plane that crashes on a deserted island, and the survivors from the plane crash accidentally stumble onto the secret hideout of terrorists that are planning a secret invasion of the United States. Now the survivors must band together not just to save themselves but to save the free world. This film has all the complimentary violence, action, nudity, and sick humor that you would come to expect from any Troma film!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: the best war movie ever
Review: troma's war was a [kicking] movie.it had the usual humor that you would expect from a troma movie,but it also had some serious parts and good war/shooting scenes.this is probably one of my favorite troma movies and i dont really like war movies,but this one was an exception.This movie has a lot of extra features like every troma dvd so overall it is a very solid disc.Don't bother renting it,just go out and buy the best ... war movie ever
