From the liner notes

“Greetings, Starfighter! You have been recruited by the Star League to defend the frontier against Xur and the Kodan Armada.” So begins an adventure of galactic proportions in The Last Starfighter. After Earthling Alex (Lance Guest) conquers the Starfighter video game, he is recruited by alien Centauri (Robert Preston) to be part of an elite legion of fighters. Leaving behind his trailer park home for the outer regions of space, Alex becomes the last hope for the beleaguered Star League and hundreds of worlds – including Earth.

3 Reasons To buy this film

Greetings Starfighter, buying this movie will help save the galaxy...
If you don't the Kodan Armada will come after you...
Some of the aliens have really cool heads.

Review

You can all have your Star Wars and your Star Treks and your Trons, but we'll take The Last Starfighter any day of the motherfucking week. Got that? Granted, Lance Guest may be the ugliest dude ever to star in a Hollywood movie and, again granted, it's kind of weird that Centauri is The Music Man, but how often do you get a scene as deeply, primally, ridiculously satisfying as the one where Alex finally breaks the record on the video game with the whole damn trailer park wildly cheering. Even Frank Capra never pulled off something so deliciously cheezy, yet emotionally satisfying. Plus, Xur's hair and sceptre are like nothing else you'll ever see again... well actually the hair's kind of like a bleached white Jeffrey Tambor thing really, but fuck you, it's cool in that it is really, really lame. You get killer aliens, cutting edge (for the time) F/X, white trash dreams come true, robotic doubles and space fighting... ok so, in many, many ways, it's inferior to those more famous space movies that you nerds like, but it was one of the only movies we had on VHS when I was a kid, so you can all go fuck yourselves.
