Top Gun (1986)

“Top Gun is a great movie I love the dog fight scenes, the F-14 scenes are out of this world. That is because this was the first film that actualy used real Navy planes, the production company payed up to $7000 dollers per hour for fuel when using the planes and what you got was the greatest F-14 jet fighter scenes on screen. On top of the great plane action you also had a good story, and some great music. Tom Cruise was at his best in the 80's, and this is one of his best films. Honestly I also loved the vollyball scene and the song playing with the boys, I am a chick so yeah I am going to have a perv. This is a really great action movie, so if you have not seen it go watch it.” read more

"I first saw this movie a little more than a decade after it was first released (so I missed the whirlwind of hype that surrounded it). All I can say is, while it wasn't bad, & overall I found the film enjoyable, there were still some parts that really made me feel a need for speed. And I'm referring to the amphetamine, not the velocity. "
