Top Gun

I read a few reviews and in my opinion some people are way off. This is by far one of the best movies I've ever seen. Yes the soundtrack is a little repetitive and yes it's slow in the beginning, BUT THATS HOW YOU SET UP A STORY. Fantastic characters and storyline. Brilliant casting and acting from just about everyone. I could write for days about this film and the emotions it gave me but I'll just say I was born 18 years after this film released and despite growing up in the superhero film era with laziness like Kong vs Godzilla and Matrix 4, I can see that those are terrible films and this one is TOP GUN baby

i'll never get tired of it

We went this way..he went that way.. I asked Hollywood, where'd he go?! Hollywood says Wheeeere'd whooooo gooooooooooo!!!

The year is 1986, the U.S. and Soviet Union are in the midst of a cold war, the threat of a nuclear winter is immanent. Navel War-Fair is the answer for both countries. F-14 Tomcats! Mig 28s! Get inverted and give them the Bird, aka keeping up foreign relations.

Welcome to the... Danger Zone

Ah, what a classic. This movie was my childhood. My play count is probably a major underestimation if the stories my mum and nanna tell me are true. I watched this so much as a child, and loved it to pieces. Though apparently, I walked out when Goose died every time. And yet I could recite it verbatim while walking through the supermarket.

To this day, I do not think there is a more beautiful aircraft than the mighty Tomcat. Others might do it better, but that design is iconic. As are half the cast here, and all of them bring what you came to see. Though I think the best has to be Wolfman, Goose and Jester. Ironside just has a voice and a presence you can't ignore. And the humour and camaraderie of both Wolfman and Goose is sublime. You can truly believe these guys love one another to death. Maverick's face while trying to cope with Goose's death is some of the best acting Cruise has ever done.

I could watch this movie a thousand times and never get sick of it. Propaganda piece or not, it had everything the growing boy in me needed back then, and it still thrills that inner child every single time I throw it on now as an adult.

my need for speed will be forever fueled by you TC.

"Gentleman, welcome to Top-Gun!"

Watched the 4k Blu-ray - what a wonderful release. Only film I've watched in: VHS record off Broadcast, Official VHS, DVD, 2D Blu, 3D Blu and now UHD.

Atmos track was actually used in this too - loved the jets buzzing around all over. My most watched movie ever and it's still bringing me joy.

Goose :/ I cried so much

Key film of the 1980s
