When Starman notes that &#8220;earth men are at their best when things are at their worst&#8221;, we wonder how he came to this conclusion, and why it&#8217;s presented as the film&#8217;s primary theme when it has nothing to do with what&#8217;s come before. Jeff Bridges was nominated for an Academy Award for his performance as Starman, but it&#8217;s Karen Allen who&#8217;s most impressive here &#8212; as Peary notes, she shows &#8220;that she is more comfortable than any other contemporary actress at playing love scenes&#8221;. Recommended for one-time viewing, but ultimately not must-see. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Karen Allen as Jenny<br \/>\n<a
