      After more than 30 years, there is still ambition in the smile

      As a pseudo post-00 generation in 1999, watching films from more than 30 years ago, whether it is the plot, photography, editing and soundtrack, is a slow classic and a slow respect.

      In the plot, the main story is Tom playing the handsome little boy who worships his father and aspires to become a soldier as good as his father. He has experienced many hardships, transformed and grown into a proud air force soldier. Thirty years later, in the arrangement of...

      Top Gun

      In addition to the cool flight, the movie has more attractive places. Medellin's sinking to rising, that period of soft romance and warmth deeply attracted everyone. Although the story of this movie is simple, it is true. It truly reflects the real life of a fighter pilot, the growth experience of an elite pilot, from self-confidence, to loss and confusion, and back to self-confidence. He had comrades in arms, but he also lost comrades in arms, he had love, but also lost love, but in the...

      First look at Top Gun

      When I first saw "Top Gun", just like its theme song "take my breathe away", this film took my breath away, but it gave me a strong taste of the 1980s. The unique rock music of the 80s, the unique fighter, the unique emotion and the unique lone ranger. I envy the mutual appreciative love between the lone ranger and the fox, I envy the friendship between the lone ranger and the benzene goose that is more than family, and I envy the informal way of the lone ranger and the benzene goose's...

      film review

      "Top Gun" is an old movie. The film tells the story of the protagonist, Pete Mitchell, who wants to be an ace pilot. There are also very typical love, friendship, responsibility, etc. in the film. The storyline of the film is also the story of the common hero rising up in American movies. But in the 1980s, it was not easy to make such a film using airplanes as the material. The scenes of the flight, rotation and pilot driving of fighter jets in the film brought a sense of excitement to the...

      Movies with military themes should be respected.

      Compared with the breathtaking flying stunts in the film, after watching "Top Gun", what left me even more unsatisfied was the military nature of this film. I saw someone say this on station B: When you have a mature film industry, you can make a huge contribution to national propaganda. Internally, you can strengthen domestic self-confidence; externally, you can export the national image.” Like this film The F-14 (Tomcat) fighter jet in the middle of the era was a symbol of the United...

      2010.08 @ Nankou Military Training Base should be considered a pretty good movie at that time. . .

    Movie plot

    Medellin ( played by Tom Cruise ) is a US Navy lieutenant, codenamed "The Lone Ranger." His father was an old pilot with outstanding military exploits and an unshakable idol in his heart. Once, he and Gus, who is also a naval officer, were sent to the Fighter Weapons School (TOP GUN) to receive the most rigorous training. In the first training session, the instructors encouraged them to be the most elite pilots in the United States....

    Evaluation action

    The film shows the high-tech aircraft and its flight capabilities. In the past two hours, the pilots driving the fighter F-14 and the relatively old A4 and F5 swiftly in the blue sky and white clouds took up a full hour and a half. The shining silver fighters chased each other and formed each other, sometimes whizzing past their heads, sometimes floating steadily in the air at an altitude of 10,000 meters, accompanied by lofty...

    • Goose: Yeeha, Jester's dead!

      Wolfman: Won this bullshit?

      Goose: Didn't everybody?

      Hollywood: Hell no, man. We got our butts kicked.

      Wolfman: Thirty seconds. We went like this, he went like that. I said to Hollywood, "Where'd he go?" Hollywood says, "Where'd who go?"

      Hollywood: Yeah, and he's laughing at us, right on the radio, he's laughing at us.

      Slider: That was me laughing, dickhead.
