Disappointment for a huge fan!

Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Tom Cruz failed miserably in what could of been a decent film but instead turned into an absolute piece of garbage.

As students at the United States Navy's elite fighter weapons school compete to be best in the class, one daring young pilot learns a few things from a civilian instructor that are not taught in the classroom. Top Gun is heartfelt, emotional and fun thanks to great direction, Tom Cruise's charm and lots of great 80's music and to be honest, i still don't get it how critics hated this film it's just freaking awesome. (10/10)

Top Gun is one of the best movies ever. Period. Great flight scenes without CGI, great actors. I have seen it probably more than 50 times, starting at the movies when I was based in Germany in the 1980s, then VHS, laser disc, DVD and Blue Ray Dolby Digital. I never get tired of it.But the script bothers me as I get older. Maverick loses his comrade in an accident, and then has a major confidence problem to carry on with his job. Won't fight. Now translate this back to the 1940s to the Battle Of Britain. All the guys who are now in their 80s and 90s, flying Spitfires defending Britain against the Luftwaffe, lost a friend EVERY DAY, somebody who they knew and had downed a few beers with. Every single day, they returned to base and found out that this and that guy did not make it back. Yet, they found the resolve to GO ON, CARRY ON FIGHTING. That is true heroism: carry on against the impossible odds. Compared to that, Maverick losing Goose in a training accident is BS.

For anyone who loves gadgets, flying, or even dreams of being a pilot, this movie is pure unadulterated pleasure! I don't think Top Gun has even been equalled, in producing some enthralling aerial cinematography that never looks amateurish or unrealistic. If you consider that back in the 1980's the CGI option did not exist, so all the live action sequences had to film real F14's flying; the technical challenges in filming supersonic craft and doing so (and getting decent footage) are considerable. For this feat alone, Top Gun is a classic that has never been equalled before or since. Watching this movie, it's easy to see why Tom Cruise became the mega-star he did. His clean-cut, good ol' American guy image and toothy grin appealled not only to US audiences, but to the wider world at the time. This part isn't much of an acting challenge for Cruise, since there isn't much depth to the character, but on the other hand, he plays the part of a maverick pilot so convincingly, that you never doubt for a moment you are watching anything other than a top Navy pilot. The cinematography is superb, the music is just so thrilling it gave me tears in my eyes with happiness.' The scenes of Iceman Interacting with maverick and Goose is just great to watch. The soundtrack has its ups and downs, nice in taking some classic romantic numbers, but failing when loud bursts of American rock signal that Maverick is either in danger or has successfully shot down a plane and 'going home'. That being said this is still a highly enjoyable film, and while the attitude may be a little annoying at times, it can still be genuinely enjoyed as a good, in your face, bit of fun. Overall rating: 9 out of 10.
