After determining that this item could be played in Australia with the correct code etc. Was sent a product that was not useable in our region. As it was opened etc to find this issue - now stuck with something that won't work. Poor packing at your end.

Thanks for nothing

I could not watch it. I live in Australia and it would not play on my DVD player. I might try to watch it on a lap top computer.

Groundbreaking

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 April 2014

I remember watching this on VHS - it must have been around 1985 / 86 and I absolutely loved it.

Revisiting it on Bluray was a real treat after re-aquainting myself with the film on lovefilm. If you're not familiar with the story it's about a young guy, Alex Rogan, who is trapped by circumstance working as the maintenance man on the trailer park his mum manages. The one outlet he has away from the drudgery of his life is a video game outside the convenience store which he eventually beats prompting the arrival of "Centauri" who convinces Alex to come along with him and be a real life star fighter.

When Alex realises the enormity of the situation he asks to be taken back home, at which point the starfighter base is attacked and nearly destroyed completely. After being hunted down on earth by an alien hit-man Alex is convinced by Centauri to return to Starfighter command and pilot the one remaining Gunstar and defeat the Ko-Dan empire.

At it's heart the film is really about seizing opportunities. As Otis says in the film about grabbing on with both hands and holding on tight. It's also a coming of age story about accepting responsibility for your life and having the courage to make it what you want. It may seem a bit sentimental but in the conext of this film it works really well and I found it's message sincere.

The film was a pioneer in the use of early computer graphics for the special FX and at the time was truly ground breaking. Some of the effects look dated today but I have to say the Gunstar still looks awesome! The dated effects only add to the overall charm, much like watching the original Tron. In fact it's amazing comparing those 2 films. With Starfighter coming just 2 years after Tron the improvement in the effects was astounding. The film was made a time when video gaming was nowhere near as popular (or sophisticated) as it is today but it's a perfect product of its time. Remember also that It was up against sc-fi films with bigger production budgets and Star Wars was reaching it's climax with Jedi but this film does offer something genuinely different to those films.

Picture quality is decent (remember it's 30 years old!) - It's the best looking version you will see for the home versions without doubt. Sound is also excellent with a lossless HD track.

The music is also really good!

For a UK buyer be aware that the bluray works fine but the DVD is region 1 and the digital copy won't download because that's also only for American buyers.

Brings back very fond memories of carefree Saturday afternoons watching films!

80's Sci-Fi Classic - The First To Use CGI.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 March 2020

Verified Purchase

I first watched this film on its original release in 1984. The special effects were great for the time, but do look rather dated now. However it's a great, fun sci fi story with a super cast. Lance Guest is great as Alex, Dan o herily is very humerous as Grig, but Robert Preston is absolutely outstanding as Centauri and steals every scene he's in.
It's a shame they never made a sequel as this really is a fun film. It's reminds me very much of the later films Galaxy Quest and Tremors . Sci Fi with a healthy dose of humour thrown in.
As previously stated this American 25th anniversary blu ray edition plays fine on my U.K player even though it's not described as region free.
It arrived within a week and at a great price. Well worth buying if you like the genre.

A true classic well worth getting especially now it's on Bluray

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 May 2022

Verified Purchase

Always loved this film & was heartbroken when I went to watch it a few weeks ago & couldn't find it (I KNOW I've got it on DVD - somewhere) hence when I saw that it was available on Bluray I thought "why not" & bought it.
What a great decision, the quality is so much better than a DVD would be & the film itself (though it shows it's age in some ways, especially with "rubber tentacled aliens" who you only see a couple of time) but the shots taken in space & especially the battle scenes really stand up well, you can obviously tell it's CGI but if you compare it to modern PC games it really looks good.
Can't recommend it enough.

tacky, corny, totally predictable plot, but just ACE !

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 January 2021

From the days when ATARI asteroids was the ultimate in gaming, a gaming cross sci fi movie.
It feels dated and the CGI looks laughable these days. It might have been cutting edge once, but that was a long time back. However, just like theatre, you are asked to believe the scenery with just a few clues, and you happily accept the deal. The story is lovely and has no unpleasantness to it.

A film you come away from happy.
