Looking Back At Sci-Fi Movies of Yesteryear
by Jeff Zyra
While scouring
Netflix for 80’s era Sci-fi movies I came across this movie which I haven’t seen
since the 80’s. The Last Starfighter came
out in 1984 during the height of Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher. It is also the year that my son’s gymnastic
teacher won the gold medal for team all around for USA in Los Angeles and it was
also the year that The Boston Celtics, Detroit Tigers, Oakland Raiders and the
Edmonton Oilers all winning championships in their respectful sports.
