Starship Troopers is one of those franchises in which no sequel comes even remotely close to the terrific first movie, as Traitor Of Mars delivers a rather low-key and low-rent take on the concept. Apart from a dim and not particularly likeable bunch of grunts, the main culprits here are the rather weak dialogue and a painfully limp antagonist. One aspect that this CG-animated entry does succeed at is making the bugs malevolent again - and the scale of the final assault is quite impressive - but the return of the Dizzy Flores character (voiced as originally played by Dina Meyer) sadly is nothing to get excited about. This is a good try, but its weaknesses are rather too evident.
