mij53807's rating
The rating already indicates that this movie is not for the faint of heart. However, what might be considered as violence and gore by many people comes across as "justifiable" means. Who wants to be on the menu of a big, nasty bug anyway? Close your eyes if you must, but watch the rest with your eyes wide open because it's surely worth your attention.
Before there were gigantic spiders, ancient dinosaurs or hungry ants, but now the bugs are loose and they come in chunks. Merciless and ugly they want to eliminate the last few human beings, however, they did not reckon with the Starship Troopers, a courageous group of men and women, fighting against the overpowering enemy. In particular, there is Captain Dax, a venturous but compassionate soldier, who fights an already lost fight against the bugs and justice. Actor Richard Burgi portrays Dax the way you would expect the Hero of the Federation: Charismatic with a touch of humour and muscles in sync with the brain. Burgi's presence on the screen is truly notable, nimbly carrying the heavy weight of a leading character on his (rather muscular) shoulders.
The rest of the Troopers are mention-worthy as well, especially the two leading ladies, Colleen Porch (Pvt Lei Sahara) and Brenda Strong (Sgt Dede Rake). Powerful and still female, they both show brilliantly how a movie should be cast.
Starship Troopers 2 is a dark, gloomy movie with some incredible, daunting and haunting F/X. It's a sci-fi adventure that makes you peek through your fingers at times, but in the end it's disappointing that the 90 minutes are already over.
