When I was a child I watched this movie with incredible fascination, I hadn't been exposed to the themes quite as regularly, the effects were par for the time, and of course the music is 80's.
Today I found it and watched it again as an adult.and even though I've long since gotten exposed to all of the racial themes, and newer graphics, I can still put myself into the seat I sat in as a child and enjoy the movie for what it is.
I love the object lesson that was designed to teach beyond race, the themes and messages within still hold just as true today as they did back then, the movie for it's time was forward thinking, and I'm glad I watched it again.
