Go see the movie and enjoy it (ignoring the impossible physics of the bots will help).
The beauty of Starship Troopers was that it was camp; it made Heinlein into something enjoyable.
Both Heinlein and actually to a stronger degree Asimov are in my opinion miserable writers; the entire "robot" series was puerile and lackluster. (Like the results of what happens when 70% of most Hollywood teams get their hands on a Phillip K. Dick story.) I wasn't planning to see I Robot, but you have got my interest piqued.
