Welcome to the Danger Zone

“You live your life between your legs" - Maverick

The director of Top Gun is Tony Scott and was produced in 1986. The lead actors are Tom Cruise who plays Maverick, Kelly McGillis who plays Charlie, Val Kilmer who plays Iceman, and Anthony Edwards who plays Goose.

Right from the beginning you can tell this is going to be a great movie with a great soundtrack. The opening scene makes you want to stop everything you are doing and go fly a fighter jet. This movie has some great action scenes. The flying scenes in this movie are simply breath taking.

This movie is about Tom Cruise who plays Maverick. He is a fighter pilot who is trying to make it up the ranks to being a Top Gun and along the way he meets Charlie who is a good looking civilian instructor. He ends up being in a strong romantic relationship with

Charlie and she helps him throughout the movie on giving him little pointers as he continues his climb to being a Top Gun.

As Maverick makes his way to the top he goes through some very high and low moments in his life. I don’t want to give to much away so lets just say Maverick ends up losing someone very close to him and it makes him realize how dangerous being a fighter pilot can be.

This is an amazing movie and is a lot of fun to watch!!
