Up there with the best of the best.
I feel the need, the need for speed.
In the shooting of "Top Gun", the director wanted to express the excitement of aerial combat as realistically as possible. At the same time, the film was made to help the U.S. military recruit. The U.S. military gave great support to the shooting team, so the crew would A large number of aerobatics were carried out using real aircraft. First of all, I admire the director's serious attitude towards this film. No special effects. The effect of shooting with a real machine is completely different than the effect of using any cool special effects! Well-deserved reputation, wonderful! Those scenes of fierce aerial battles are still thrilling after 20 years. Maybe the explosions are not as beautiful as the pictures like Pearl Harbor, but they are real, and there is no gorgeousness and falsehood of the computer stunts that are now flooding. The movie star Tom Cruise became popular in the film for playing the flying elite Medellin, and his sassy and heroic appearance in military uniform is unforgettable. It is worth mentioning that the film's theme song "Take my breath away" ("Take my breath away", a real emotional person, played an irreplaceable role in rendering the inner feelings of the protagonist, it won the 59th Academy Award for best. The original music award has also become a popular love song to this day. It is a pity that a plane and a pilot were lost, but the result was: in 1986 (the year the film was released), the recruitment offices in the United States were full. Overall The loss is worth it! Kudos to the pilot who died while filming! At the same time, this is the first thing this film taught me: the truth is often more moving than the unreal.
