MIM Movie Review

This is an archive of the former website of the Maoist Internationalist Movement, which was run by the now defunct Maoist Internationalist Party - Amerika. The MIM now consists of many independent cells, many of which have their own indendendent organs both online and off. MIM(Prisons) serves these documents as a service to and reference for the anti-imperialist movement worldwide.

   Starship (video, 1986)

   A low budget sci-fi film centered on a resistance movement made up of
   youth, fighting evil robots controlled by a few ruling humans on a
   mining planet. The rulers exploit youth labor, labor that will soon
   be replaced with better robots, making the youth dispensable. With
   Vietnam-era overtones, the movie does a good job demonstrating planned
   armed resistance by the people and their power to overcome difficult
   odds. Predictable dialogue and difficult plot, but an inspiration to
   revolutionary youth.
