    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.

    Сast and Crew

    Production

    The primary inspiration for the film was the article "Top Guns" by Ehud Yonay, from the May 1983 issue of California magazine, which featured aerial photography by then-Lieutenant Commander Charles "Heater" Heatley. The article detailed the life of fighter pilots at Naval Air Station Miramar in San Diego, self-nicknamed as "Fightertown USA". Numerous screenwriters allegedly turned down the project. Bruckheimer and Simpson went on to hire Jim Cash and Jack Epps Jr., to write the first draft. The research methods, by Epps, included attendance at several declassified Topgun classes at Miramar and gaining experience by being flown in an F-14. The first draft failed to impress Bruckheimer and Simpson, and is considered to be very different from the final product in numerous ways. Tony Scott was hired to direct on the strength of a commercial he had done for Swedish automaker Saab in the early 1980s, where a Saab 900 turbo is shown racing a Saab 37 Viggen fighter jet.

    About how the Americans sailed to the shores of India and flew their airplanes. And the valiant Soviet troops defending the interests of friendly India defended its borders. But in fact it is a melodrama with US Army propaganda. Allusion to gays. I wonder how gays will be dealt with in the sequel 6/10 Translated to English

    Watched

    Plus a few points just for Tom Cruise and filming airplanes. The gacha topic was not revealed Translated to English

    Watched

    A cult movie and one of the iconic blockbusters of the 80s, it must be admitted, but apart from magnificent aerial photography there is nothing in it. I didn’t like the film even as a child. The bottom line is war propaganda and a worthless story with moronic dialogues. Translated to English

    Watched

    An outdated film in all aspects with beautiful shooting with fighter jets Translated to English

    Watched

    A wonderful action film with pathetic drama. The dogfight choreography is still stunning today, as is the soundtrack. But everything else…No, this is an excellent educational film for teenagers on the topic of overcoming difficulties. But that doesn’t justify the clunky plot. Translated to English

    Watched

    The film is very entertaining and beautiful thanks to the masterful filming of air battles. Oscar in the category "Best Song" for the song "Take My Breath Away". Tom Cruise, thanks to this film, became a world star. Translated to English

    Watched

    Well, they showed flights on cool metal birds, well, young hot Cruise showed off, well, they turned on a beautiful melody, but all this is so sluggish, boring, uninteresting and washed-out that all these advantages fade and are lost. Just one Oscar-winning song in my head and it settles Translated to English

    Watched

    It is clear that it is propaganda romanticizing the US Navy, but overall it is watchable, even though it was boring in places. I watched it, first of all, for the sake of the sequel, which was collecting some crazy box office, and secondly, for the sake of Cruise’s smug smile, which so often flashes in old films with him. Translated to English

    uncomfortably vulgar even for the 80s, scenes with tackles of the disgustingly toothed dwarf Cruz, diluted with propaganda of militarism Translated to English

    Watched

    It’s amazing how exactly this film got a sequel, even after 36 years. In general, if you have seen at least one film about pilots, you know the plot of this one. You can read it before the sequel, but it’s not necessary. Beautiful flights by modern standards can no longer be seen here. Translated to English

    Watched

    Okay, I’ll raise the rating from 6.5 to 7, but the film is still weak. A nice mixed-gender pair of main characters. A cult song for romantic moments (sounds in the middle of the movie). Beautiful picture and spectacular airplanes. But the script is primitive, and air battles are a boring mess, without oil. Translated to English

    Watched

    WEELCOME TO THE DANGER ZONE

    Watched

    A simple feature film with a still young Mr. Cruise and cute music in the background. For that time, perhaps it was something new. And oh, this love. Well, there’s no way to do without it. Translated to English

    Watched

    The film was simply not marked for me. and I noticed this thanks to the sequel, so I probably watched it in the late 80s, maximum in the early 90s, pleasant memories from childhood, video stores))) Translated to English

    Watched

    A classic of heroic-patriotic cretinism of the 80s. And I watched it then, 30 years ago. Now it’s even scary to imagine how I would perceive it. Translated to English

    Watched

    I came to see the dogfights, stunts and sound effects, I got it and was pleased. Unfortunately, there is nothing else good or outstanding in this film. The sequel, which copied a lot from the original, will obviously be worse. (judging by the trailer) Translated to English

    Watched

    A mockery for romantics, fans of action and military drama. Although flights are beautiful, watching them is more boring than scenes on the ground, since there are no threats, and therefore no worries. There must be intelligible characters, but here they are cliched sacks. But Cruz fucks to cool music. Translated to English
