幕後製作
1997年，一部娛樂性十足的《星河戰隊》電影，以其眩目的特技、血腥的場面、仿佛電腦遊戲一般的情節吸人眼球，的確可以稱的上是部不用耗費任何腦細胞的娛樂大餐。《星河戰隊》在DVD市場上也取得了不俗的成績，發行了多個版本。能賺錢的片子自然少不了續集，6月1日，(星河戰隊) 將會推出續集StarshipTroopers 2: Hero of the Federation 但這次只會直接推出特別版 DVD 及 VHS 而不公開上映，而 Columbia TriStar Homertainment公布此片將會於 6 月 1 日發售。這一次的續集是由曾獲奧斯卡最佳特技的 Phil Tippett (Jurassic Park)執導Ente，劇本則繼續由編寫第一集的Ed Neumeier 負責，叄與演出的演員有 Kelly Carlson, Ed Lauter, RichardBurgi and Sandrine Holt。 JE此片D自英二區。本片音畫質還算不錯，延續了第一集的娛樂加血腥風格,又為第三集留下伏筆。除了英文5.1音軌外，二條捷克、匈牙利的5.1音軌聽著感覺也不錯，字幕更是可怕，有19條之多。
這部投資兩千萬的影片由第一、二集的編劇愛德華·諾麥爾(Edward Neumeier)擔任編劇和導演,也是他第一次當導演。星河戰隊第一部很好看，第二部演員大換血淪落為直接發行DVD。第三部卡斯帕·范·迪恩(Casper Van Diem)回來了，但《星河戰隊3》仍然是直接發行DVD。
On one level this is a pure action flick at its best. Amazing effects, mindless violence by the tanker-load and the good-guy gets the girl. Nothing more to say, really.
However, this isn't a pure sci-fi action film; this is military sci-fi in all its fascist glory. Guns, warriors, alien scum and pretty explosions rendered in a disciplined manner. I wouldn't call it tongue-in-cheek, its too hardened for that. I wouldn't call the satire in your face or subtle; its more... subliminal. Sublety by another name perhaps. I don't read so far into films as others do; maybe I'm right for it, maybe I'm not. You just cant get it so wrong. Certainly people spend less time actually reviewing films.
Uncharacterized enemies, a one sided view the situation, rampant jingoism, those are the trademarks of militarism. This film catches them well in a futuristic setting. A little slow to start but still enjoyable, with just the right sense of innocence and its loss, replaced with the hardened edge that invariably lies within success. When the action finally gets going, it really gets going. The effects are stunning for 1996 when they were made, and even 10 years on they'll still be impressive. I thought Casper van Dien was more impressive than the film really shows; certainly the screen test on the DVD seemed to show a greater depth IMO. Denise Richards was a little too wide smile for the film, but Dina Meyer pulled off the 'chick with a gun' more convincingly than any other woman I've seen on film (they always seem uncomfortable with it, but Meyer carried herself naturally). Her character was pretty good too ;-) . Clancy Brown clearly enjoyed himself, hamming up the stereotypical drill-instructor pleasingly, and Michael Ironside was wonderful as the hard-nosed and competent Leiutenant. The cheesiness beloved of action films was there but it never became too cheesy to detract from the work (unlike say 2004's King Arthur). Another thing that takes this to the level of military sci-fi.
Basically, brilliant. As clever as the others here say, depending on the level you watch it, but maybe not subtle in the way some like to think. If you want a working definition of the military sci-fi I've been harping on about, this the one i refer you too. I just wish there were more examples like this.

一晃十年過去，地球人和蟲族的戰爭如火如荼，愈演愈烈。某日，空軍元帥奧瑪·阿諾克（史蒂芬·霍根 Stephen Hogan 飾）來地球人的遠方農場羅庫山視察，時任上校的強尼·瑞哥（加斯帕·范·迪恩 Casper Van Dien 飾）也一同前來。在此期間，阿諾克的心智被蟲王操控，他切斷了隔離區的電力，使基地完全失去保護。是夜，蟲族對隔離區發動總攻，地球軍雖頑強抵抗，終因寡不敵眾而告敗，基地淪陷。阿諾克則和一乾心腹逃離，飛船迫降在OM-1行星。
電影版《星河戰隊》根據羅伯特A海因萊因（Robert A. Heinlein）經典科幻小說改編，講述了一群年輕人在地球人與外星蟲族的戰爭中逐漸成長起來的故事，由卡斯帕范迪恩（CasperVan Dien）、迪娜梅耶（Dina Meyer）、丹尼斯理查茲（Denise Richards）、尼爾派屈克哈里斯（Neil Patrick Harris）等主演，1997年上映後在全球取得了1.212億美元票房。《星河戰隊》後來又拍了兩部續集，但都是直接發行影碟，並未在影院上映。
據悉，新版《星河戰隊》已經確定編劇人選，《雷神》（Thor）和《X戰警：第一戰》（X-Men: First Class）的編劇艾什利愛德華米勒（Ashley Edward Miller）、扎克斯坦茲（Zack Stentz）將負責劇本的重新創作。
