Highly Overrated But Still Good

Admirable film.

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Its not easy patrolling hostile Tatooine territory & laying done the law but someones got to do it! This fly on the wall documentary follows a group of Stormtroopers on patrol & their encounters with scum & villainy. Welcome to Troops!This is probably the most well known of all the many Star Wars 'fan-films' & deservedly so as it is a highly entertaining spoof of Cops & the innumerable reality police shows clogging up our telly schedules. These guys are just ordinary Joes doing their job, & what a job! Jawas dealing in stolen droids, domestic disputes between moisture farmers & their wives are all in a days work for these hard working representatives of the Empire. Unlike some fan-films this has a real high-budget feel to it helped by the authentic costumes, decent acting, locations & familiar fly-on-the-wall filming technique. Of course, this is a must for Star Wars fans with revelations about certain events in A New Hope. However, those not familiar with the films may still find this an enjoyable mickey-take of real life cop shows.Complaints? It isn't long enough! After ten all to quick minutes your going to be hungry for more real-life adventures of those misunderstood & underappreciated galactic law-enforcers the Troops!

It´s very funny, I would like to see some more, like "the galaxy´s most dangerous creatures", "empires dumbest criminals" etc. And the way it links to the real movie is excellent. How stupid Luke must feel when he realize the he has wrongfully accused the empire for his uncle and aunt´s death.

for an independent parody....to be so well done shows the professionalism of the individuals involved. it's funny...the editing is well done....the acting superb....the mixing incredible....and the video is terrific.

I simply love this parody for its excellent humor and cool special effects, basically everything. Everything! What is there to say but:"Uh oh. There goes the other one!"
