Starman (DVD, 1998, Closed Captioned; Multiple Languages)

Jeff Bridges and Karen Allen star in John Carpenter's 1984 sci-fi film.
A widow helps a stranded alien get home by taking him to Arizona. This is
a great film I've always enjoyed growing up with. This dvd only features
the trailer, but has good picture and sound as well. I recommend picking
up this sci-fi classic.

very good seller, fast shipping, good quality,I bought many dvds from this seller abd many others qand this seller is one of the best. all their DVDs are as described, and very well priced.

This was exactly what I was looking for. Product description was exactly the product I received. Emails answered promptly. Product was received on time as noted. Product packed very well.

Seen it many times not many good movies any more the older are still the best a time when there were actors.

MY freind seen it and wanted to buy it so I got it for him I know he will like it very much, Thanks for listing it,,,,,,

This guy went above and beyond what he promised. This seller took care of some extra shipping at no extra charge. I love this seller. A++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Recently purchased a DVD version of this SCI-FI classic, & the biggest dissappointment was that it is a Full-screen copy & not Widescreen. That difference is always a distraction to me. 8 out of 10 stars.

When I saw this film in the movie theatre is was in widescreen (2.35:1). Unfortunately, it appears that it was released only as a full frame version
which really damages the viewing experience. I have purchased at least
three copies hoping to find the Widescreen version, but to no avail. I guess I'll put my newest one up for sale on half.com.

Very moving film of a visitor from 'afar'. Of course the government intrudes where it's not wanted, but one of the lowly officials (aka Toad, from American Graffiti) saves the day! I love Karen Allen, she has not been in enough films, as far as I'm concerned! At least they finally got smart and brought her back for the latest Indiana Jones movies. And of course the 'deer' scene is very touching! Good movie!

I loved the movie when it came out in the theatres.

The movie is of a wonderful actor you dont see much of anymore.
This is not a Bootleg of anysort. Picture was crisp and clear

Starman is a delightful family film, as well as an unusual love story/sci-fi flick directed by the horror king, John Carpenter of 'Holloween' fame. Jeff Bridges, who plays the Starman, gives an Academy Award performance supported by the then, very popular Karen Allen, who is both natural in her performance, and very believable. 'Starman' is a humanistic story, an allegory of love and goodness, as opposed to violence and overdone special effects. This is a very special film, that deserves 5 stars, because of the the way you will feel when the credits role at the end. And too, it will leave you wondering what happens to that last silver 'powerball' that the alien leaves with Karen Allen, just prior to leaving earth. I heartily recommend this DVD.

I first saw this movie with my then girlfriend (now wife of 21 years) back in the early 80's. Jeff Bridges is outstanding as the friendly alien who takes the form (face, features) of Karen Allen's deceased husband. The movie touches all of your emotions (humor, grief, anger, etc.). You can't help but get choked up by Karen Allen and her obvious broken heart of her lost/deceased husband and then only to see her go from a mild hatred to true love of Bridges as the movie progesses. Charles Martin Smith (Toad from American Graffiti) also gives a great supporting role as the G-11 gov't scientist who is part of the NORAD team trying to track down the alien. His final FU to his boss is both classic and subtle, you really have to look for it. It's a wonder Smith has not done many other films as he seems to always capture the audience from his hysterical Toad character, to the Lone scientist in Never Cry Wolf and as a supporting gov't agent in the Untouchables with Kevin Costner (Not one of my favorites...the movie).

As for Starman Bridges is the real star who you cannot help but want to make your best guy friend and women most likely would love some alien compassion.

I forgot Michael Douglas produced this film under the LucasFilm umbrella, and does a great job. I always thought a sequel would be made but all that ever came from this movie was a short lived TV series that , well, sucked!

Perhaps now 20+ years later a sequel could and would be appropriate.

For a good 2 hours of entertainment and even some life lessons Starman hits the mark! Enjoy it with friends and those close to you, you'll be glad you did.

I'd be remiss (and I am not an employee) that I bought this new on ebay from Thermite-Media. The picutre quality and overall quality of this DVD is A+++. I reccomend this store for buyers of hard to find new DVD...new or old.

I found this to be a thought-provoking film. Bridges' "Starman" is a compelling character, both wise and innocent in a world that doesn't exactly roll out the red carpet for him. It did make the American military and police look a bit on the trigger-happy side, but other than that it was a great movie.

This hard to find item was everything I thought it would be. The DVD was new and wrapped. The only fault I can find is with the post office, it took almost two weeks to get.

I love how this movie points out so many of the errors in our society and how easily we harm one another for no real reason. I also find the innocence in Starman refreshing. Its a shame we dont have more movies like this.

This is a very good family movie, no blood and guts, shoot'm up bang bang type of movie, something the whole family can watch many times.

this is another movie i loved growing up and i want to see it again some movies today could not beat this movie.i bought it becuz i love the whole movie and i had to have it

nothing to dislike, looked through alot of stores in my area could not find this movie. Found tons of other movies, that I can't wait to get.My motto now is CAN'T FIND IT, GO EBAY, THAT'S THE WAY.. Thanks
