By Sargon of Akkad - Carl Benjamin former member of the Eurosceptic right-wing UK Independence Party (UKIP). OUTSTANDING politically based review of the movie in depth, with frequent references to the book.

I believe that ST is easily available as an e-book.

Recommend everyone who hasn't read the book to do so before watching Sargo's review of the movie

Only if they commit to re-reading the book after watching Sargon of Akkad’s review. It is very insightful.

I had always disparaged the movie as a cartoon but Carl Benjamin makes it much more valuable.

Morgoth also did a review of the movie (without really referencing the book) that looks at the movie probably more through the lens that Paul Verhoeven wanted it to be looked through. It is is a decent counter-point to Sargon's also excellent analysis.
