Big Cloits Yes, this movie was better than expected, better than the other sequels (which lowered our expectations)... but that doesn't mean it was actually good. Not even close.Read the book twenty years ago, loved it, and mostly enjoyed Verhoeven's funky interpretation in 1997. Nauseated by ST2 and ST3.Just bemused by this one.A ridiculous predictable plot... continuity weirdness everywhere... flat characters... stilted voice acting... lines so corny they were make you laugh AT the film, not with it.The campy, corny style of the original was part of the satire, and it was kind of brilliant. The corn here was either a tone deaf imitation, or more likely just clunky filmmaking.But! Some good art, tasty eye candy, creative sound, and a few good sci-fi ideas. Definitely not a TOTAL waste of time.

thekarmicnomad I am a massive fan of the first real action movie so I can't help myself from grabbing these titles when ever I see them.The CGI is fairly good, not up to some of the other CGI feature length titles that have come before it, but totally watchable.I didn't really enjoy this movie but to write a fair review I think you have to consider its target audience. This is a space action romp. There is no onion to peel here; no layers of story where the viewer obtains a deeper understanding of the human condition.This is about aliens, explosions, space ships, leather cat-suit cladded action models and cartoon boobies. In that respect it does its job perfectly!The dialogue is cheesy, the characters are so full of testosterone each is a whisper away from throwing themselves on a grenade for the Republic (and lots of them do)but that is part of the fun.If you can take this at face value you will have a great evening. If you want something with depth or serious storyline then best keep walking.

Allen Cheng Starship troopers returns with much more faith to the novel.Humanity is still fighting their war against overwhelming swarms of the bugs or "Pseudo-Arachnids, battling them in Exo-powered suits and other feat of military technological advancement much as what Robert Heinleins describe in his book. Fans and those who have seen the past films will appreciate and enjoy a generous face lift of the Starship troopers universe in CGI than its live-action predecessors, with the return of their favorite characters since the 1997 film. However this film may cause confusion to those who haven't read the book and watched the past films or the Starship Troopers: Roughneck TV show. With their lack of understanding of the film or the Starship troopers universe, they may not like the weak story and some what a cliff-hanger ending but this was designed to open the audience to a possible sequel to which most fans anticipate.Verdict: Fans will enjoy this film while non-fans you might want to get acquainted with the Starship Troopers first. I am happy this film did good for the Starhip Troopers universe and waiting for the sequel.

Brooke G I really like the Starship Troopers franchise, all of the movies including this one.They are lots of fun, lots of action and lots of special effects. This time thought its a CGI version, a bit more serious, with a little bit lame script but still good movie.I love science-fiction/horror and CGI movies and this had it all, including a little CGI nudity and muscles mm-mm.Every character in the movie was ready to be the hero and ready to die for the cause, each one was a strong enough character for you to be able to pick your favourite. Which is always good, not like some movies where the characters are weak and boring and you don't care if they live, die, succeed or fail miserably.The plot felt predictable and i found myself thinking i could guess what was going to happen next but then all of a sudden it changed and caught me by surprise. Just when you thought they were safe they wasn't and just when you thought they were goners it all turned around in their favour...or did it? You will have to watch and see.Over all it was entertaining movie and i would be happy to see more either real actors or CGI...its all good.P.S Keep watching the end credits.
