Soon enough, the possessed colonists ...
The original Starship Troopers is a cult classic, perfectly blending sci-fi action with political satire. Two sequel movies were produced, both better off forgotten as they failed to do justice to the fantastic first film. Rather than making another live-action flop, a CGI sequel was made to recapture the crazy spirit of the original. After the suc...
