Title: Surprisingly good.
Product review: Don't get me wrong. This is not a great movie. The plot seems a tad too simple, it lacks the social satire of the original, and there are parts that are either boring or where it is hard to care about some of the characters, but there are a number of really big positives in this movie. One, it's WAY better than Starship Troopers 2 or 3 (not much of a compliment, but it is worth mentioning). Two, the CGI animation is gorgeous, and presents a very pretty spectacle to watch. Three, a couple of the characters are actually given enough character to care about them, and personal investment in a Starship Troopers movie is nothing to sneer at. It's not great, but it is a lot better than I was expecting. I know fans of the first Starship Troopers have had their faith all but destroyed by the previous two films, but I think this is worth checking out.
