Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars (2017)

The villian supposed to be the smartest person ever, but don'y understand the blow back of blowing up Mars(you know our nearest neighbor). Europe sized objects would fly directly towards earth. I have no clue the the Psychic guy couldn't just off her since it was shown he could give her a bloody nose from a distance. Rico's voice sound like Archer. Rico's troops were just annoying.

I can't believe they spent more than $50 on the computer graphics for this movie. Like a poorly done first person shooter from the 90s. Story bland. Total waste of time.Watch the original - it's a classic. Don't bother with any of the sequels.

Whatever meaning the novel and original movie Starship Troopers had is lost in this anime sequel that borrows its main character from Metal Gear Solid. This is not Rico, it is Big Boss. I wonder when the legal battle will ensue.The whole political, moral and philosophical implications of an society dominated by the military and drenched in warfare is pushed to the background and so much so that merely making a reference to it seems to score favorable with the anime crowd. Oh blimey, they just quoted a line from the original movie! Awesome! As long as it is anime, which means over-muscled though guys, dramatic looking characters, supposedly funny nerds and long slender blacked hair girls with big breasts wearing suggestive outfits and anime haircuts. I swear that the air marshal is Lightning from Final Fantasy.What we get served is a trashy story of a bunch of stereotypical newbies that get dropped in the midst of a surprise attack on Mars by aliens nobody except the audience saw coming. There are issues over Mars trying to gain independence for the federation, but this is never addressed properly because it is just required as a plot device to get the newbies fighting giant bugs over a planet and for a population we never see or hear from. It is just shallow window dressing.What is even worse is that almost all the characters are boring run- of-the-mill anime tropes which is exacerbated by a shallow story-line that is goes something like: bunch of newbies wise up under stress to the surprise of their though as nails commander Rico.This movie is best avoided for anyone but die hard anime fans. Actually I do not dislike anime, but it ill fits with Starship Troopers. By all means, make a movie in which a bunch of staple characters fighting insectoid invaders. Just call it something else but Starship Troopers if that is all you want to do.

Starship Troopers Traitor of Mars 2017 Powersuits are closer to as described in the Original Novel Starship Troopers 1959, as the Bounce (Bounding) capability, tactical nuclear missile launchers, and other capabilities as envisioned by the creator of Starship Troopers, except that Starship Troopers actually freefalled from low orbit to a Planets surface.Only briefly mentioned was the Militaristic Government in the Book, that would later be emphasized by Anti Military Anti War Activist Uwe Boll's Starship Troopers 1997 Movie, that also had the Starship Troopers at a significant disadvantage as nearly hopeless without common Powersuits that were created before the Earth encountered the Bugs (Earth first encountered the tall skinny humanoids as Allies of the Bugs).Uwe Boll's Anti Military Anti War influence would be seen in almost all of the Starship Trooper Movies. While the Book Starship Troopers concentrated more on what was needed to be "Franchised" as a Citizen, Citizen's Duties aka Civic Duties, as during this time most Nations still had Mandatory Compulsory Military Service as anybody upon reaching age 18 must spend 2 years in their Nation's Military as a Citizen's Duty, as Earned Citizenship not something given based on accident of location of Birth.Examples, it was tradition for the British Royals especially Males of the Royal Family of The Great British Empire, Great Britain, today's United Kingdom to join the British Military to set the example for the British Commoners (British Citizens) to join the British Military as a British Citizen's Duty.Those British Commoners of the British Military that distinguished themselves would receive more British Citizen's Rights, Benefits, and Entitlements along with a Title like Knight (KG, KT, GCB, KCB, GCMG, KCMG, GCVO, KCVO, GBE, KBE and others that gave those that earned these Titles Rights and Privileges, and usually a Monetary award for life), This was also true for most of the Modern Western European Nations (including Uwe Boll's Nation of the Federal Republic of West Germany as 2 Years of Mandatory Military Compulsory Service). While a U.S. Military Officer Serving with the British Military, I had a British Officer explain to me what those abbreviations after their last names meant (there are more than what I listed). When I was a U.S. Military Officer attached to the Deutsches Bundeswehr (German Military) a German Officer explained how the German Mandatory Compulsory Military Service worked while most German Citizens felt guilty after the Militarized Government of Germany during World War 2, same as Japanese Citizens.
