Top Gun

Top Gun has to be one of the worst movies i have ever seen. I am very disappointed with this movie choice. It was a struggle just to finish the movie without closing my eyes in pain. It really wasn't all that bad . It did have some very impressive ariel stunts with the jets. I can appreciate the fact that i didn't feel sick and still had a relative idea where the jets might have been in the sky. Being able to film that correctly must have been al ot of work and a lot of time as probably put into that aspect of the film. However if the storyline and dialogue had a little more effort this movie might have been bearable. Tom Cruise should be embarrassed to say he was in this movie. I will never rec commend this movie to anyone unless they are a jet freak or are corny and lame. The worst scene of all was the volleyball scene. Completely unnecessary and so stupid i can't even put it into words. I honestly have no idea why that scene was in the movie. It bore no relevance to the plot or help the story move along. It was just a bunch of sweaty guys diving for balls. The dog fights in the air are great and the cinematic climaxes are awesome but as soon as everything touches the ground the movie is over. The acting from anyone in this movie is horrible. I'm no actor and i feel more confident about playing ice man than val ilmer. What's that guys deal? Is he Maverik's enemy or not? I also suppose everyone in the armed forces has a nickname. As a conclusion save yourself some time and keep far away from the eighties and this movie. The only thing i can say that I'm happy about is that i got to watch it at school, so my time wasn't necessarily wasted!
