Top Gun (1986)

Genre: Action, Drama





Rating: It was rated PG, but it should have been at least PG-13 for all the cursing, romance (like when Maverick [Tom Cruise] walked in to the Women's bathroom to follow Charlotte "Charlie" Blackwood [Kelly McGillis]), deaths, and all the shirtless guys in the locker room.

Storyline:
Pete "Maverick" Mitchell and Nick "Goose Bradshaw" are on a F-14A Tomcat sailing on the USS Enterprise trying to intercept MiG-28s over the Indian Ocean. They are flying with "Cougar" (John Stockwell), and "Merlin" (Tim Robbins). When one of the MiG's lock in on Cougar, he is frozen with shock, even though he didn't have much fuel left. Against orders, Maverick helps Cougar land safely. CAG "Stinger" (James Tolkan), is furious of Maverick's act. However, he does send Maverick and Goose to Top Gun, a school to train the best pilots in the U.S. During one training run, Maverick and his teammate "Iceman" (Val Kilmer) are pursuing their targets when both Iceman and Maverick fight to target the other aircraft. When Iceman moves away, he creates a phenomenon known as "jet wash," which is some sort of severe turbulence. Maverick and Goose are caught in the jet wash, and spin out of control in mid-air. When Goose tries to eject, he ejects right into the cockpit hatch, instantly killing him. Maverick's life changes dramatically after. He constantly argues with his new Co-Pilot (Whose Nickname + Actor I cannot remember), and wants to be alone. I don't want to tell you the ending. Because its that good. 

Review:
It is one of the best movies I have seen. You should watch it if you're a Tom Cruise fan, want to see a good movie from the 80's, or just bored. But watch it. Please. (And If you want, you could try watching the 3D one i hear)

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows



I accidently watched the second part of Deathly Hallows without watching the first. So I'll post the review as soon as I watch the first part (In about 2 days).
