Critics Review- "This is all pretty lame material. The Last Starfighter is a well-made movie. The special effect are competent. The acting is good...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."- Roger Ebert "Chicago Sun-Times"

My Review-
I kind of do not know where to start with this movie, it seemed like it would be a good movie, but it was just okay. I found myself bored for a majority of the movie. It seemed like it would be a cool concept if Tron had not been released already, it seemed like they wanted to make this movie since Tron was a big success. they thought this one would be too, but I think that Tron is WAY better than this movie. I do agree with Ebert, the special effects were okay for the time it was released, and that was about it. The ending was really cheesy and seemed like that would not really happen. I was kind of glad when the movie was over since one of the best characters in the movie was the beta robot pretending to be the main character and his interaction with his little brother. Other than that it was hard to pay attention to the movie.
