Synopsis: The Last Starfighter (1984)
Synopis: Teenager Alex Rogan lives and works in the trailer-park that his mother owns. His life consists of contemplating his rather bleak future, and waiting for word on his college loan application to arrive. One night all this changes forever. Alex possesses an extraordinary skill at video games, and when this skill attracts a space-travelling recruiter looking for pilots to protect the galaxy from outside forces, he suddenly finds himself on another planet in the middle of an inter-galactic war. It seems that his game-playing abilities are an invaluable military asset to the embattled "Star League of Planets."Features: The Last Starfighter (1984)

Pros: Pioneer of CGI
Cons: not enough commentary
First off, I remember going to see this movie as a kid. It was enjoyable and still is today. The DVD is great because it allows a showcase for this movie, which pioneered CGI. I remember reading that the speacial effects for the Last Starfighter were done on the Macintosh. It is worth having for any sci-fi fan. A highly underrated movie that deserves more credit. ...
