Top Gun (1986)
Top Gun Quote: “Uh, sorry, Goose. *We* happened to see a MiG 28 do a 4g negative dive.” – Maverick
“Top Gun” is the perfect time capsule for 1986, the only year where you could make a successful “American romantic military action drama.” We remember amazing performances by Tom Cruise, Tom Skerritt, Tim Robbins, Val Kilmer, Anthony Edwards, Kelly McGillis, and Michael Ironside. We remember Kenny Loggins and Berlin propelling the soundtrack to 9 million copies sold. But many people forget this movie had flaws the size of a Tomcat. Find out if it stands the test of time, and learn way too much about our sex lives in the process.
Plot Summary: “Top Gun” The Top Gun Naval Fighter Weapons School is where the best of the best train to refine their elite flying skills.

“Take my breath away” as a ballad is fitting, Maverik and the flight instructor Charlotte’s driving would have left a trail of dead bodies in their wake. . . I can see the cop telling Maverick ” you’re dangerous” and Maverick responding ” You’re right Cop man, I am dangerous” and the cop just looking confused as he backs away calling for backup. . .
