Having not seen Top Gun before but of course knowing of the film and the significance it had upon Tom Cruise's career path, knowing how raved and praised it has become in today's day and age, one decided in watching for the first time. Having somewhat high expectations based on the fact that the film seems to be universally praise from fanboys, Top Gun was a letdown.We seen a very young Tom Cruise, as well as a young Val Kilmer and they are both decent but overall the film doesn't offer much and is actually quite boring. There are the typical drama that occur but in general nothing too much that grabs the attention. Also the film offers several cringe and corny moments, but that appears to be a major reason as to why it is so loved?Also it was very clear they had to have a character killed off (in this case being Goose) to build upon sympathy and have another motor, but his death really wasn't as heartwarming as imagined. His character came off as somewhat of a joke anyway so the death didn't leave much of an impression. Furthermore, Top Gun isn't nearly as good as it has been praised for, and once can't understand the constant hype it has received. The fact that they are making a sequel over 30 years later, shows that people really love this movie. But will it be a mistake? How much hype will that have? We know once that roll out comes out and the sequel in near on its way, a lot of people will start reviewing and rewatching (or watching for the first time Top Gun). Just sit back and wait for it. 2019.

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

AVGN's review of the video game based on this waste of time of a movie is more entertaining.This film has some nice shots of the planes and unfortunately the only thing this film has going for it. That's probably where this film gets it cult status and classic status. Unfortunately this film has no story, I would say about every actor in this film is wasted.

This is one of those movies that slipped through my fingers for many years. I can't tell why, I just missed any opportunity to watch it before. Well, today I had a look at it. Overall I thought it was amusing, it felt very typical and the cheesiness was really over the top. It's not a movie you can take seriously. It would probably have been a blast if I was younger and I understand a lot of people have nostalgia for it. It didn't do much for me unfortunately. It was difficult to see past all the clichés and silly moments.The soundtrack is nice, no faults there. I loved the camera filters they used. The whole movie is highly saturated and it seems like the entire thing was filmed at golden hour. All the flight scenes are pretty spectacular. Must have been difficult to film them. The characters are stereotypical and corny. Every other scene it's like someone's gonna say "Oh, you!" or something similar. The story goes through all the typical beats. You can easily guess what's gonna happen. So, it's not a movie you should go to if you are looking for depth. I've always admired Jerry Bruckheimer as a producer, he is actually my favorite movie producer. I haven't seen much of Tony Scott's work. I enjoy his visual style the most of what I've seen so farIt's an 80's time capsule and it's typical, cheesy and clichéd, I know. But, it was still decent fun. You can turn your brain off and be entertained. So, that's OK. Maybe I expected too much from it.
