Gripping story with well-crafted characters
It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Tom Cruise is "Maverick", the fighter pilot who likes to play by his own rules, and Kellie McGillis is "Charlie", the savvy civilian contractor who advises the Navy on technical aviation matters. They attempt an unusual courtship between testosterone-fueled scenes of dogfights and brinksmanship.The music is dynamic, the photography is beautifully colorful, and the supporting cast is a who's who of handsome actors from the 80s. Meg Ryan also has a significant, though brief, supporting role.This is a rather iconic film-in part for its place in Cruise's filmography, and also for its quotable lines and memorable scenes. It exudes a certain chic due to its use of fast vehicles and classic fashion choices. This is one of the best known films of its decade.
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.
