I really like the movie but I think the book is even better. It's a great book that explores moral philosophies and civic virtue/duties. I also appreciate that the author Robert Heinlein makes jabs at communism whenever he can. The book was actually on the military reading list for the longest time.
If someone has never read Heinlein I wouldn't recommend they start with Stranger in a Strange Land It's a good read but too dissimilar to his other work.

He is one of my all time favorites. I liked the movie but I really wish it would’ve examined more of the themes from the book.
If we're going to do Heinlein I'd say start with Stranger in a Strange Land
