it be well then starship trooper 2. but the only thing that would have be bad would be a 90 minute film of someone take a crap . the main problem with this film be it actually try to be faithful to the first one and that not good . the first starship trooper be make by paul verhoveven and a guy not a clever or smart a he think he be . it be clear that verhoveven despise the book which the film be base which show military service a a positive thing . the film he make be a deliberate spit in the face to the book and turn the concept of courage and service into be a duped fascist puppet . this sequel try to do the same . it attempt to satire war and the role of religion during war . however the film level of satire be a complex and subtle a someone drop their pant and moon you . one of it selling point be the return of casper van diem and the star of the first movie . this a bait and switch move . van diem show up for the first few minute and be see for two minute in the middle and then 5 minute at the end . really he look like he just wait to get his money and leave . most of the film involve new character stomp through a desert on a remote planet which go on far too long . the first movie at least know to throw u a battle scene every 10 minute to keep u from lose interest . this one not have anywhere near the budget of the first can not and be stick with people try to act with a poor script . i will give the film point on not be completely predictable . i be sure the admiral play by amanda donohue be be set up to be the main villain of the piece . turn out she isn not and her twisted logic make sense consider the situation . other then that the film be an attempt to be a sequel to an overrate first film do by people with even less talent and money .
