Starman
Description
The mission comes in response to a NASA message addressed to foreigners, where a space object tries to contact humanity in a new and exciting way to carry out a specific space plan, but an American missile is laying its ship. The spaceman follows another form, taking the form of a young widow's husband and asking her to lead him from Wisconsin to Arizona while the government is trying to stop the process before it is carried out.

Early Jeff Bridges starrer is fun sci-fi.
June 06, 2007
It isn't pleasant to watch a talented filmmaker like John Carpenter willfully distort his personality to fit a commercial (read Spielbergian) profile, and only the opening suspense-horror sequences have the weight of real involvement.
August 01, 2003
Carpenter is a master of framing for widescreen, and Starman is certainly a forum for him to show off his prowess behind the lens.

[A] surprisingly tender, funny movie from John Carpenter, a man otherwise known for his intense horror/genre flicks. It may be the best sci-fi/romance hybrid ever made.
June 06, 2007
An enjoyable film filled with the kind of sensitivity, love, and humor seldom seen on today's screens.
December 16, 2014
We see a sweet side to the director that never appeared anywhere else: an emotional palate that he rarely indulged in, but which he handles with surprising grace and subtlety.
June 06, 2007
There is little that is original in Starman, but at least it has chosen good models.
October 23, 2004
Starman contains the potential to be a very silly movie, but the two actors have so much sympathy for their characters that the movie, advertised as space fiction, turns into one of 1984's more touching love stories.
July 29, 2009
Bridges' portrayal of Starman can be as hard to take as the lapses in logic.
June 24, 2006
The best special effects are in the first five minutes. Thereafter, it's all rather predictable.

Jeff Bridges as appealing alien; best for teens.

In Mr. Bridges' hands [his role] becomes the occasion for a sweetly affecting characterization -- a fine showcase for the actor's blend of grace, precision and seemingly offhanded charm.
