Still great after 20 years
Added 11/14/2009
I had this movie on VHS for years and years and it was one of those films that I just never got sick of. And then when dvd's came out, I eventually threw it away thinking 'I'll go and get it on dvd now'... and off course it hadn't been released on dvd. So this was a great find for me - and is still just as enjoyable today as it was 20 odd years ago. A great movie, a great adventure, fabulous for the kids and the special effects were cutting edge at the time and still hold up today. The special features on this special edition are fanastic too - educational as well as interesting.
10 out of 10 from me!

The Last Star Fighter - 2th Anniversary edition
Added 10/10/2009
The Movie itself was exactly the same as the original - your probably saying well duh. I was expecting to see Will Wheaton in this version, but to no avail. I was kind of expecting to see some deleted scenes restored to no avail. All that was there was how the movie was made in 3 or 4 different ways. Not what I was looking for. But still a nice addition to my movie collection.

Great 80's era movie!
Added 10/5/2009
Watching this movie is great, if for no other reason to remember back when analog 15" CRT monitors and 400 baud modems were considered cutting edge.
Movies like this and Wargames also remind me how, even as recently as the 80s, you can have a fun movie that didn't involve hyper-sexualized teens dressed like Megan Fox in Transformers. Rather, you have a plot driven movie that played on the kind of innocent wonder back in the day about how technology would change people's lives and lead to a new future.
The CGI used in the film looks exceedingly dated, but I remember when this film and Tron came out, I thought it was cool as heck. Admittedly, some parts of the movie are a bit cheesy, but if you can ignore that this movie is a great example of an 80's sci fi classic.
