#94 The Last Starfighter (1984)

The ultimate wish-fulfillment movie for gamers everywhere when it came out. Do the story and the movie still hold up today? Imagine being so good at a video game that aliens would come and recruit you to fight for the safety of the galaxy. Is the Last Starfighter a product of the 80s and stuck in that time, or is it a timeless classic? We revisit it now as adults to see if it holds up.
