Full Plot Details

Alex Rogan lives in a remote trailer court where his mother is manager and everyone is like a massive extended family. He defeats Starfighter, a stand-up arcade game to the applause of everyone in the court and later finds out he has been turned down for a student loan for college. Depressed, he meets Centauri, who introduces himself as a person from the company that made the game, before Alex really knows what is going on, he is on the ride of his life in a sports car flying through space. Chosen to take the skills he showed on the video game into real combat to protect the galaxy from an invasion. Alex gets as far as the Starfighter base before he really realized that he was conscripted and requests to be taken back home. When he gets back home, he finds a Zando-Zan (alien bounty hunter) is stalking him. Unable to go home and live, Alex returns to the Starfighter base to find all the pilots have been killed and he is the galaxy's only chance to be saved from invasion. To defeat the invaders, who are paying the bounty on him, he must be victorious.

Movie Reviews

Video-Reviewmaster.com - 10/10 by Steve CrumDefinite "Star Wars" influenced, this trailer park adventure takes off, succeeds on own.
BrianOrndorf.com - 9/10 by Brian OrndorfOne of the few successful Spielberg clones, administering the usual routine of aliens and mouth-agape wonder with friendly determination and a perfect, just perfect, game boy screenwriting hook.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 9/10 by Dennis SchwartzThankfully this Star Wars rip-off doesn't take itself seriously.
The A.V. Club - 8/10 by Keith PhippsA sweet, unabashedly corny, matinee-friendly science-fiction adventure starring Lance Guest as a trailer-park videogame prodigy, and Robert Preston as the alien who recruits him to save the day from some space-baddies.
Zaki's Corner - 8/10 by Zaki HasanThe quintessential '80s artifact -- though in this case I mean that in the best way possible. It arrived at a time when earnestness hadn't yet been overwhelmed by cynicism.
Cinema Crazed - 8/10 by Felix Vasquez Jr.It embraces its derivativeness and runs with it to deliver a fun kids space opera that's simple, but exciting.
The New York Times - 7/10 by Lawrence Van GelderThe Last Starfighter is a well-made movie. The special effects are competent. The acting is good, and I enjoyed Robert Preston's fast-talking The Music Man reprise (we've got trouble, right here in the galaxy) and the gentle wit of Dan O'Herlihy's extraterrestrial. But the final spark was missing, the final burst of inspiration that might have pulled all these concepts and inspirations and retreads together into a good movie.
Flipside Movie Emporium - 7/10 by Rob VauxIf you're going to shamelessly rip off Star Wars, make sure you do it with as much spirit as this film.
Filmcritic.com - 6/10 by Keith Breesethe rousing kind of kid flick that inspires ten-year-old boys to grab broomsticks, storm the neighborhood hill, and go nuts on pretend aliens with ridiculous faux karate moves.
Seanax.com - 6/10 by Sean AxmakerThe simplistic plot and simple story work thanks to the energy and light touch of director Nick Castle.
