	The Last Starfighter (more) »rank: 996 starring: Kay E. Kuter, Dan Mason (III), Lance Guest, Dan O'Herlihy, Catherine Mary Stewart directed: Nick Castle Our review: :At the time of its original release in 1984, this modestly budgeted sci-fi excursion had the distinction of offering some of the first examples of purely computer-generated animation, an apt (and frugal) special-effects solution for a movie with a plot line rooted in computer games. Both the computer-generated visuals and the arcade game now look quaint, but writer-director Nick Castle's affable, good- hearted adventure holds up nicely, thanks to a clever premise--the title game is actually a test for prospective starship pilots, planted by embattled aliens under siege ... Detail		*Batteries Not Included (more) »rank: 984 starring: Hume Cronyn, Jessica Tandy, Frank McRae, Elizabeth Peña, Michael Carmine (II) directed: Matthew Robbins Our review: :Quite possibly the nadir of Steven Spielberg's career as a producer, this piece of sentimental junk from 1987 concerns five little spacecraft which arrive on Earth just in time to help out some New Yorkers getting kicked out of a tenement. The script's goo just sticks to the viewer, and the cast looks silly by trying not to be silly. You get the feeling that Spielberg's Amblin Entertainment was pretty much throwing stuff at the wall to see what would hang there, and they came up with this ... Detail
	Galaxy Quest (more) »rank: 1491 starring: Patrick Breen, Jeffrey Howard, Kevin McDonald, Alan Rickman, Sam Rockwell Our review: :The alumni cast of a cult space TV show have to live out their roles when an alien race needs their help.Genre: Feature Film-ComedyRating: PGRelease Date: 26-DEC-2005Media Type: DVD essential video:You don't have to be a Star Trek fan to enjoy Galaxy Quest, but it certainly helps. A knowingly affectionate tribute to Trek and any other science fiction TV series of the 1960s and beyond, this crowd-pleasing comedy offers in-jokes at warp speed, hitting the bull's-eye for anyone who knows that (1) the starship captain always removes ... Detail		Spaceballs (more) »rank: 1764 starring: Leslie Bevis, JM J. Bullock, John Candy, Ronny Graham, Sandy Helberg Our review: :May the farce be with you in this hysterically funny space oddity created by comic genius Mel Brooks that will send you into hyperspace with fits of laughter! Lampooning everything from Star Wars to Star Trek this outrageous send-up of epic sci-fi-movies is full of cosmic crazies who score 'eight trillion on the laugh-meter' (Gene Shalit NBC-TV)!Fearless -- and clueless -- space heroes Lone star (Bill Pullman) and his half man/ half dog sidekick Barf (John Candy) wage interstellar warfare to free Princess Vespa (Daphne Zuniga) from ...

	The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the Eighth Dimension (more) »rank: 2119 starring: John Ashton, Jonathan Banks, Ellen Barkin, Raye Birk, Clancy Brown directed: W. D. Richter Our review: :'The very oddest good movie in many a full moon' Buckaroo Banzai combines 'humor imagination a little oriental mysticism and a passel of sharp performances [into] very chic sci-fi' (Time)! Oscar® nominees* Peter Weller and John Lithgow team with Emmy® winners Ellen Barkin and Christopher Lloyd for a fiendishly clever action-packed adventure in an outlandish world you'll want to visit again and again!Brilliant brain surgeon Banzai (Weller) just made scientific history. Shifting his Oscillation Overthruster into warp speed he's the first man ever to travel to the ... Detail		Explorers (more) »rank: 3709 starring: Ethan Hawke, River Phoenix, Bobby Fite, Bradley Gregg, Georg Olden directed: Joe Dante Our review:Description:EXPLORERS are the inventive story about three idealistic and thrill-seeking boys who combine their wits and astuteness to build their own spaceship. Accordingly, the boys blast-off into the galaxy and embark on journeys both whimsical and weird. :It's only in retrospect that one can see that Joe Dante's Explorers is an awful lot like Robert Zemeckis's Contact. An alien race, determined to make contact with earthlings, feeds some unsuspecting individuals the blueprints for space travel. Instead of the big gyroscope that Jodie Foster was strapped into in Contact, ... Detail

Detail		Brazil (more) »rank: 2172 starring: Jim Broadbent, Ray Cooper (II), Robert De Niro, John Flanagan, Kim Greist Our review: :If Franz Kafka had been an animator and film director--oh, and a member of Monty Python's Flying Circus--this is the sort of outrageously dystopian satire one could easily imagine him making. However, Brazil was made by Terry Gilliam, who is all of the above except, of course, Franz Kafka. Be that as it may, Gilliam sure captures the paranoid-subversive spirit of Kafka's The Trial (along with his own Python animation) in this bureaucratic nightmare-comedy about a meek governmental clerk named Sam Lowry (Jonathan Pryce) whose life is destroyed ...
