ummmmm what be this . the movie start out pretty decent and then it just kind of fell flat towards the end . make me appreciate the original that much good . however and i will say and that it be 50 % good than starship 2. i do not get it and i really do not . i understand that the budget be small and i understand why people really like this series and myself include . i just do not understand how it could be screw up so bad . this series kind of reminds me of the highlander series represent it start out really good and with a good story and then the producer get a hold of it and put it in the toilet ( see recent highlander representthe source and for confirmation ) the point be and there be a fan base for this series . people really want to see more of the starship trooper . why do the writer mess it up so bad . and apparently just because they can write and it all of the sudden mean that they can direct too . which be not always the case . give this movie . if you be a hardcore fan and this movie be worth watch . while some people be into the hardcore gore ( bore ) and i really like the propaganda machine that these movie put on . however and during the movie when the religion stuff go over the top ( a. k. a. when pilot and soldier be pray and there be a cheesy fading or overlay effect of explosion and thing get blow up and it just be really tacky ) . and the marauder part be very brief . the nude scene ( while yes and there be nice look body ) just seem totally tack on and have no plot bar whatsoever . watch this it be hard to believe that the writer or director be the same screenplay writer for the first starship trooper movie . he should stick to good writing and stay away from direct . it well then the 2nd ( not say much ) and but very disappointing for those of u who really enjoy the first one and the spirit of the series . do it right or let it die . while .
