In the end, all it really is is a guilty pleasure.

...suffers from an egregiously low-rent vibe that effectively distances it from Paul Verhoeven's comparitively masterful 1997 effort.

If you liked the original, you'll hate the sequel and everyone involved in the making of it.

Likely to put off fans of the original, pleasing only those who can reap high entertainment value from the bare-bones ingredients of gore, boobs, and bug-splatter.

Rated: 2/5

Isn't Verhoeven's original, but it's still a pleasing second coming for the bug squashers

Not that bad, not that good. Definitely a time killer with a few interesting themes. Oddly, the 3rd movie redeems the second a little. And yeah, there's some boob shots that probably average to an extra star overall.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Awful. I'm a huge fan of the original Starship Troopers. I give this a 1%. I was going to upgrade it to 3% until the very last line and right back to 1%. Do not watch.

Was not a strong sequel. Only watched it for the Kelly Carlson topless scene, that that is the only reason why it gets 3 stars.

Imagine if Starship Troopers 1 had a shoestring budget, that's starship troopers 2.

Sequel di cui probabilmente si sentiva il bisogno ma che sbaglia completamente ad interpretare tale richiesta, sfornando un prodotto lontano anni luce dal primo originale e di successo capitolo. Viene quasi totalmente dimenticata quell'ironia a tratti satirica che aveva contraddistinto la prima opera, mentre il progetto si sposta di fatto su un classico film sci-fi che altro non fa che ricalcare in modo molto sinistro uno dei capitoli della saga di Alien. Tolta però la satira, quel che resta è un cast di basso livello con una sceneggiatura poco interessante.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars

It's just a worse version of the first movie. The atmosphere is there, and the actors are just as bad, but the kicker is the practical effects are worse, and there is only one set. Were the first movie cost $105,000,000 to make, this one only cost $7,000,000 and it shows. It's all left over props. In all, it's just a worse version of the first movie, and space among us, not good, not bad.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars
