John Tones Espinof 08/13/2019
Affected by a competent but impersonal CGI animation and, of course, unable to convey the emotion of real actors, 'Traitor of Mars' works as a noisy and decaffeinated substitute for the first film. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review
Kat Hughes THN 08/23/2018
3/5
The film was set in a futuristic world where mankind was engaged in a galactic war with giant alien insectoids. It was the perfect blend of camp, propaganda, testosterone and violence. Go to Full Review

5/10
It's not overly engaging, and other than in its politics it doesn't say an awful lot. Go to Full Review
Travis Leamons Birth.Movies.Death. 11/13/2017
Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars will not score high points for originality. The action is okay for what it is, but aside from the villain, Neumeier relies too much on nostalgia instead of forging ahead. Go to Full Review

Harold T Sep 2 Underrated. The CGI quality alone is worth 4 stars. Story line is robust. People who know nothing of previous flicks will be satisfied. You can judge a movie's worth by whether you would watch it again. Add this one to your collection. See more James A 11/18/2024 The bad writing is unwatchable. It is so very much filled with tropes. This was meant for pre-teens to watch. Guess what, pre-teens can watch animation with good writing as well! I just don't understand. How much can good/decent writing add to the cost of making a TV show? Like how much of the budget is writing? See more Cristian s 08/25/2024 Simpática, probablemente la mejor secuela que se hizo hasta ahora. Historia lineal y algo naif pero cumple su cometido, tiene buen ritmo, casi todos los personajes cumplen su cometido y hasta tienen algo de crecimiento. En el medio tiene un bache y tal vez llega a aburrir un poco. La animación se ve algo burda, especialmente en los rostros humanos.

And, as the second Japanese anime movie adaptation of the Starship Troopers franchise, and 5th overall, this had the feel of bringing the imagination of Japanese animation into an America franchise. And what did it bring? It brought fantastical animation and overly-dramatic characters to a series that wasn't about that. It just looked out of place. Even when it was dubbed back into English, with some of the voices from the original movies back into it (but not all), it still lost that original flavour, and quite frankly I forgot what the point of it was. It was hard to find it, and I wanted to complete the set, of 3 live-action movies, 2 Japanese animation movies and 1 German short fan-film. There is apparently a TV series as well, and I don't know if I want to try to find that. This is probably not worth watching as a standalone, but if you want to complete the universe then you may as well. You can live-stream it for free, but it's a little bit difficult to achieve, but it is possible. I gave it 4/10. See more 03/04/2022 Possibly the least inconsistent Starship Troopers sequel, "Traitor of Mars" is - surprise, surprise - actually kinda alright. Although it's far from a display of masterful or slick writing, it's far from boring either, thanks to several mildly engaging sequences and a few decent plot points. Of course, it is also light years away from the original and never manages to become anything more than a B movie at best, what with the video game aesthetics and a shortage of personality or originality.
