Yep the bugs are back, I love my troopers and roughnecks.

Trailer: IMDb Video: Starship Troopers 3: Marauder

Seems more like the first movie but at least Johnny Rico is back.

I do think he should have been in the second movie as that was more like the CGI series with a smaller scaled cast, hence Rico's Roughnecks was suited to the second movie, dont know why they did not at least get that part right, lets hope SST3 is good.

Kill em all!

I just watched it lol I loved the first one but this new film is more B flick to me just aweful it was a really bad movie script all the way around bad.


I sure wish the same ppl who made the first movie would get back on board and make a sequal that it despartly needs and do it right.

The first movie didn't scream out to me as one needing a sequel.

Well its a while since i seen this but here is my verdict.

**spoiler**


Well I was sure that the movie would be done on a budget similar to the second and it was, made in South Africa some of the settings looked great, if you like sandy beaches, for me the CGI was poor and just passable by TV standards, but definitely not mainstream movie standards. The story was fine, this and the actors were on par with other SST movies most seem to be relatively unknown and all that you expect from this universe was there including the slightly dated info channel graphics "Would you like to know more" sort of thing, but hey that's SST so you expect it..

Now despite all of the above niggles the main problem was I think in the name of the title, its called Marauder, based on the name of the oversize battle suits worn by the troopers, similar in concept to the loader what Ripley sat in on ALIENS. Unfortunately there is a build up to the troopers getting this bit of kit but in the actual movie its really only touched on in the final battle. We dont see any more than this which is a shame..

So, for me it is the weakest of the movies but still watchable if your a fan. If you wish to see more Marauder action watch the Roughneck Chronicles and maybe if theres another movie, maybe they should sit down and watch the Chronicles to see SST done really well..

Finally, When are they going to introduce the skinnys in the real life version?

3 outa 5 (if your a fan)

I need a corporal. You're it, until you're dead or I find someone better.
