The Last Starfighter is one of the most fun, mostly forgotten unsung heroes from the stacked roster of summer movies in 1984.  A kid who dreams of escaping his dead-end life in a trailer park gets the high score on a video game, which ends up being a recruitment test for a fight against tyranny in a galaxy far, far away.  Derivative?  Yes.  Dated effects?  Sure.  But fun?  Most definitely!  With (at the time) burgeoning state-of-the-art CGI, plus a breezy runtime and relatable characters, The Last Starfighter still wasn’t a huge hit - which is a shame.  But it found new life on cable TV and at the video store well into the early 90s, until it just kinda disappeared into cult-filmdom.  And now that it has turned 40, it is the perfect time to revisit one of our favorites and see if it still holds up.
