DVD Description
This 3 film box set includes the original Starship Troopers and two of its sequels--a triple whammy of Bug horde destruction.

Starship Troopers is set in the future and follows a group of friends who join Earth's military forces after high school graduation. Their mission: to battle the insectoid Klendathu. One fights for the chance to be a renowned pilot (Denise Richards), one for revenge (Casper Van Dien), and one for the love of a good man (Dina Meyer), but interpersonal relationships take a back seat to the firepower leveled against (and returned from) the chitinous aliens. Paul Verhoeven's subversively humorous and thrilling sci-fi film is adapted from the classic science fiction novel by Robert A. Heinlein.

In Starship Troopers 2 - Hero of the Federation, the alien Bug horde is still the number one enemy. This time, directed by Phil Tippett, the visual effects wizard from the original movie (and also Star Wars and Indiana Jones), Hero of the Federation finds the mobile infantry unit of the Federation isolated light years away from reinforcements. They must seek the help of a Federation traitor if they are to have any hope of saving themselves and the human race.

Casper Van Dien (star of the original) returns after over a decade for Starship Troopers 3 - Marauder, the second sequel to the alien-bug-battling, action-packed splatter-fest satire. After the celebrated Johnny Rico (Van Dien), now a colonel, attempts to defend the planet Roku San from some nasty arachnids, he finds himself put on death row for acting inappropriately during battle. But when a Federation starship piloted by tough soldier babe Lola Beck (Jolene Blalock, Enterprise) crashes on a far-away alien planet, only the bug-squashing Rico can save the day--the authorities have no choice but to release him for the mission. Armed with an impossibly advanced weapon known as the Marauder, Rico and his crew are prepared to exterminate by any means necessary. Marauder, written and directed by Edward Neumeier (co-scribe of Robocop and the original Starship Troopers), is a return to satirical form for the Starship series.

3.0 out of 5 stars First film is Excellent...but where's the extras?, 2 Oct 2008
The films look and sound really good, but the first film has the same basic extras that were released on the previous Blu-ray, when in the US set they get new extras and a commentary etc. So it's a bit of a letdown on that point, but if you're not bothered about extras, then you should be happy with the picture and sound quality alone.

I would give the first film 5 stars, but the Blu-ray set itself 3 stars due to the poor extras on disc 1, and the fact that the two sequels are pretty bad.

3.0 out of 5 stars Hit, Miss, Draw, 25 Nov 2008
Do you have Starship Troopers on DVD? Dont bother with this set.
Do you have Starship Troopers 2 on DVD? Sell it.
Do you have Starship Troopers 3 on DVD? May be worth getting the boxset so you have ST1.

There. Done.

OK, I watched this eventually. The first film is still the best and I finally replaced my old flipper DVD (remember those!?). The second film is just an excuse for a gore fest. Loads of cutting heads off and blood by the bucketload. It's a poor movie though and the end is just nonsense. I mean, lets have a think about what I would do...get in the ship and go home or die? Hmmm, tricky one. Sound and picture are just average, it looks like the time and effort that went into the BluRay was what the film deserved.
Film 3 is much more back on track with 1. It's got that gung ho OTT feel thanks to Rico. The whole religion thing though and the arrival of the Marauders made me think I was watching some Warhammer 40K movie at the end. Again, the picture and sound are'nt special and I even noticed artifacts at one point.
Not a great boxset at all, but it is cheap.

5.0 out of 5 stars HD Master, 13 Oct 2008
By Mr. J. Preston "jamesfed" (Reading, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The Starship troopers films have often been called `modern b movies' however in my opinion they are good films to watch when you just want to see stuff get shot up!
As far as HD films go these are fantastic in full 1080p and I didn't notice a single point where my player #HP Media Elite PC# skipped or where the image appeared sub par of HD.
Fully worth getting all three films in a box set #considering the price# with my personal favourite being the first with its original concept, the second and third are also good films looking more into the development of the `bug' species and even a `God' bug half the size of a planet in the third film.
Final thing to note this film is an 18 for all the right reasons and I highly recommend this film isn't sold/given as a present for anyone younger.
