Enemy Mine

1985, Kings Road Entertainment et al

It makes no bones about being an allegory and, like many good science-fiction stories, it uses science fiction to make the subject matter more interesting. For reasons unclear, it was a critical misfire and a financial disaster (frequently if mystifyingly compared to Dune), losing the studio nearly $30 million. But history has been kind to Enemy Mine, and it now enjoys more favorable reviews as well as a minor cult following.
