Top Gun

The top 1% of the nation's flyers gather for fighter pilot training. Outstanding maneuvers in the sky. Great soundtrack embellishes the hi-jinks, action and drama. You walk away from this one proud and pumped. This had to be a Godsend to the military recruiters! I can watch this one again and again. Tom Cruise, in probably his best role. Kelly McGillis goes by the name of Charlie, but looks all woman to me. Wow!! Val Kilmer plays a good hard ass villain type. Anthony Edwards, Tim Robbins and John Stockwell are air jockey buddies. Tom Skerritt plays the mentor. Meg Ryan has a small, but very noticeable part; cute, funny and loud. Excellent photography and sound that will not let you snooze. Don't miss one of the best of its kind. TOP GUN is tops.

I'd never seen this one but decided to give it a go given all the hype for the newly-released sequel. It's what you'd expect from Tony Scott, a hymn to the 1980s full of flashiness and style and good-looking actors barking killer lines. A great cast makes it more than watchable and the direction's pretty slick too. Best of all is the excellent soundtrack.

Absolute cheese on a stick, but Top Gun proves that that's not always a bad thing. This movie's got everything - an arrogant prodigy who'd be out on his arse if he wasn't so good, a sensible, uglier best friend, a love interest (although she's a bit of a mess), an arch nemesis and his dumb sidekick, a few cool high fives and catchphrases, an emotional death scene, a euphoric victory scene and of course, some unforgettable action scenes. What more could any red-blooded child of the eighties ask for!? And anyone born around 1980 will remember how everyone was doing that double high five and saying 'talk to me, goose' to the kid next to them in class. Certainly one of my all time favourites.

Top gun, loved and loathed by many alike. The film that launched Tom Cruise's career. I'm a student and watching Top Gun for me is an amazing uplifting experience. A 'feel good' movie that could lift the worse of moods. The film executes cheese to perfection, yes there are some silly lines but there are some real good ones too! The aerial action sequences are truly amazing, and for 1986 nothing short of magnificent. The reason why Top Gun appeals to me...Imagine yourself on a Saturday night, not painting the town red staying in for the night. You have your few cans of Budweiser, your nachos what more could you ask for. From the amazing flight sequences, Mavericks motorbike, trashy romance and to the cool 80's soundtrack. Top Gun should be taken for what it is. An entertaining Film.

And I also predict that they will make another Top Gun in exactly 36 years. That's what I would have wrote if this platform was around in 1986. I ended up watching it again since the new one is out, and wow the critics went hard on this one. For its time, this production couldn't have been any better. Tony Scott (Ridley Scott's brother) made his mark in Hollywood as the director to keep your eye on with this gem. The writing and all casting and performances were excellent. Even the soundtrack is still all top hits to this day. I'm glad I watched it again, and you'd never think after watching this, a sequel would ever surpass it, but it has. This one is a 9, the new one a perfect 10/10.

I just watched this again in preparation for the 2020 sequel where, I believe, Maverick returns as an instructor. I watched it at home on one of the more recent DVD versions in widescreen format and with DTS surround sound. With a good home theater system, including a good powered subwoofer, the sound track is amazingly good. This may be the role that defined Tom Cruise more than any other, as Navy fighter pilot, code named Maverick. In his back story his dad had been a fighter pilot killed in the 1960s in Vietnam and Maverick seemingly has spent his life living up to, or exceeding, his dad's legacy. Most of the story here takes place in California at Top Gun school where the top 1% Navy pilots compete for number one. Cruise was probably 23 during filming, the cast has several other 20-something actors who went on to good careers in film. I know it has some cheesy parts but overall this is a fine movie that entertains and deserves its place among modern classic movies.
