The same rules of great villains apply, but in MILSF you get to play with rank, weapon systems, politics, aliens, a whole gamut of special jerks that the civilian world doesn't get to experience.

Do we have to say we like this movie? It's great, and if you haven't seen it, stop reading this and seek it out.
