Just watched it this past weekend upon returning from a Bachelor Party with quite a few beers in me. This movie is just as great as I remembered. Awesome concept. An arcade game turns out to be a recruiting station for "starfighters" desperately needed to protect the galaxy from an invasion.
You could tell they were trying to ride on Star Wars' coat tails a little while also cashing in on the arcade craze and to do both in one movie is pretty damn impressive. Mind you, this was also the first movie to have all special effects shots done on computer.
It was pretty funny to see everyone come running to witness Alex beating the record score on the arcade game. But then again, it's a trailer park. There's not a lot of exciting shit going on there.
