History YMMV / StarshipTroopers2HeroOfTheFederation

** The bugs, while not exactly terrible for a DTV film, do pale in comparison to their appearance in the previous film (despite reusing the [[Creator/TippettStudio same effects studio, and thus presumably the same models, for them]]). What little bit of footage we get of the new brain bugs however, show them to not be much better than a high-end UsefulNotes/PlayStation2 cutcene.

* BestKnownForTheFanservice: That's the one where the chick from ''Nip/Tuck'' gets naked, right?
* {{Sequelitis}}: Generally agreeded to be the worst film in the series. Due to it having no characters from the previous film return and most of the new ones introduced being forgetable at best, abandoning the themes of government propaganda for the sake of a mediocre horror story, and low budget that fails to impress.

* AwesomeMusic: We have "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BajHmDkwWM4&feature=BF&list=PL24FBDC4AD0A30E9A&index=36 Dax's Last Stand]]". It doesn't compare much at all to "Klendathu Drop", but it's still quite awesome as used in the film. ''[[PreAssKickingOneLiner Hey General!]]''

* AwesomeMoment: [[spoiler: Sgt. Rake]]'s RoaringRampageOfRevenge after suffering an OrificeInvasion from a PuppeteerParasite and shooting herself up with a ridiculous amount of [[SuperSerum adrenaline]].

** The guns can become this depending on who you ask, see below.
* TheyJustDidntCare: As mentioned elsewhere, the gun props were refitted with strobe lights because they couldn't afford blanks for the firefight scenes. So are they supposed to be projectile weapons like in the other two films, or energy weapons? [[ShrugOfGod Eh, take your pick.]]
