So much average

Don't listen to the negative reviews

best movie i've ever seen.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

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.

This movie is just great. Made by a couple of amateurs (you wont notice, I promise) the movie deals with scenes that are not in the original trilogy (or the special editions for that matter) and adds a slight sense of humour.And now there's talk about a sequel! I can't wait! Simply hilarious.

Cross COPS, Star Wars, and a bit of King of the Hill and Fox should pick this up for release...I'm not sure there could have been a more humorous take on the Star Wars films from any of the "recognized" directors...The only bad thing about this movie is that it's not at least as long as a couple episodes of COPS...
