Starman Quick Review
Interspecies love with an illegal alien -- questions of what constitutes identity -- the Man's desire to dissect and destroy -- this film has all the important features of an 80's sci-fi flick.

Prize-winning movie
by Beth
I consider "Starman" a prize-winning movie, because it was written and produced so well. You can easily put yourself in both of the main characters' shoes.
The movie was in great shape when I got it. It came in the right time-frame.

Starman
by D. Charles Drake (New Jersey, USA)
Best view of the other world I have ever seen from a totally different viewpoint.
It's ashame the military wanted to destroy verse assist the other side toward PEACE.
I'm glad he left, before it was too late.
It was an excellent movie.

"Starman" rocks ...
by J. Tomasello (Washington, DC USA)
... boy, does it ever! This film has been a favorite of mine from the beginning, and the only reason I am reviewing it here is because of the tepid reviews from HiDefDigest (and some others). I ordered my copy in spite of that, and lo and behold, a real gem of a transfer! The colors are beautiful with natural skin tones, and some snappy reds, like Starman's baseball cap. Quite often this film looks three dimensional, a good example is the scene with Karen Allen and Jeff Bridges in the back of a truck with a beautiful Arizona blue sky behind them. The sound is terrific with both side and back surrounds active when required (HDD thinks they are just random, whatever that means!) and the LFE cranks up for spacecraft landings and helicopter flybys! One of the clowns at HDD says this disk is for rental only; makes me wonder what kind of equipment they use over there. So, if you like this movie and want a good Blu-ray copy, then go for it!
Starman [Blu-ray] Summary
Studio: Sony Pictures Home Ent Release Date: 08/11/2009 Run Time: 115 Minutes Rating: Pg
While most movie buffs are likely to call
Halloween
the best movie from John Carpenter, others--die-hard romantics and anyone who cried while watching
E.T.
--might vote in favor of the director's 1984 hit
Starman
. It's easily Carpenter's warmest and most beguiling film, and the only one that ever earned an Oscar nomination. That honor went specifically to Best Actor nominee Jeff Bridges for his performance as an alien visitor to Earth who is knocked off course and must take an interstate road trip to rendezvous with a mothership from his home planet. To complete this journey he assumes the physical form of the dead husband of a Wisconsin widow (Karen Allen) who responds first with fear, then sympathy, and finally love. Carpenter's graceful strategy is to switch the focus of this
E.T.
-like film from science fiction to a gentle road-movie love story, made believable by the memorable performances of Bridges and Allen. It's a bit heavy-handed with tenacious government agents who view the Starman as an alien threat (don't they always?), but Carpenter handles the action with intelligent flair, sensitivity, and lighthearted humor. If you're not choked up during the final scene, well, you just might not be human.
