The Last Starfighter
Prime, 9:30pm, Tuesday, 22 January, 2013
Suprisingly entertaining 80s sci-fi action flick in which a teenage boy's skill at an arcade video game sees him going on the adventure of a lifetime. Definitely one for 80s nostalgia buffs, but it's a decent - if somewhat cheesy - watch for everyone else as well.
One of the minor characters is played by Wil Wheaton, who was later the annoying genius kid Wesley Crusher in Star Trek: The Next Generation.
