Review of Starman (1984) by Nshep53 — 11 Apr 2015
As a big fan of early John Carpenter (The Thing, Big Trouble in Little China) I found that Starman was very disappointing. Jeff Bridges does well here as the unknowing alien, but the special effects are awful. I'm not comparing them to the modern movies of today, I'm comparing them to movies of that era. And the story goes into odd and creepy territory.
Overall, this a pedestrian turn by John Carpenter.
