Top Gun (Blu-ray Metalpak) (Target Exclusive Embossed Metalpak; like Steelbook; Very Rare OOP)

We are a bit disappointed when our Blu-Ray disk cut out on one of the scenes, and jumped ahead about 10 minutes. It did that on 2 different players, so it wasn't the player. However, the digital copy worked fine. As to the movie itself, people vary, but we thought it was a pretty good movie, and we loved the extras.

Good movie in 1986 and still a good movie today.Video/Audio quality is excellent.

Outstanding throughout the entire presentation.

Realistic life emotions. Terrific story.

We used this product to watch a video. And the video was in excellent condition.

This is a classic.

Everything was great!!!

Still a great movie

One of the best films of the 80's, which put so many newcomers onto the big stage and set up some long term lucrative careers for its stars. Great soundtrack to accompany it, and you'll be tapping away to those catchy tunes.Might be seen as a bit mighty USA, bastion of truth, right and goodness versus nasty, dark Russian's but move on past that and accept it was a film of its time.Bought for my wife for Christmas present, as she has never seen it...one of the few people in the northern hemisphere not to have seen it. She even admitted to 'enjoying it'...praise indeed.Seen this film more than 20 times, and still enjoy it...Blu-ray certainly enhanced the viewing experience and at £5, a real bargain

is a 1986 American action drama film directed by Tony Scott, and produced by Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer, in association with Paramount Pictures. The screenplay was written by Jim Cash and Jack Epps Jr., and was inspired by an article titled "Top Guns" published in California magazine three years earlier. The film stars Tom Cruise, Kelly McGillis, Val Kilmer, Anthony Edwards, and Tom Skerritt. It also marked the debut of actor Adrian Pasdar. Cruise plays Lieutenant Pete "Maverick" Mitchell, a young naval aviator aboard the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise. He and his Radar Intercept Officer, Nick "Goose" Bradshaw (Edwards) are given the chance to train at the US Navy's Fighter Weapons School at Naval Air Station Miramar in San Diego, California.Top Gun was released on May 16, 1986. Upon its release, the film received generally mixed reviews from film critics but many particularly praised the action sequences, the effects, the aerial stunts, and the acting performances with Cruise and McGillis receiving the most praise. Four weeks after release, the number of theaters showing it increased by 45 percent. Despite its initial mixed critical reaction, the film was a huge commercial hit grossing US$356 million against a production budget of only US$15 million. The film maintained its popularity over the years and earned an IMAX 3D re-release in 2013. Additionally, the film won an Academy Award for Best Original Song for "Take My Breath Away" performed by Berlin.Plot.After losing his friend, top pilot Maverick is given a second chance to redeem himself. He struggles to be at his best and also gets romantically involved with his civilian instructor Charlie.A cheesy 80s action romance pic from the Tom Cruise, who is actually to short to be a fighter pilot in real life with a standout musical score and songs and good film to keep both sexes happy on a Friday night.

Top Gun is an aviation based action film from 1986 (the year I was born) directed by Tony Scott (brother of Ridley), produced by Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer. The movie is based on Top Guns by Ehud Yonay and scripts written by Jim Cash and Jack Epps Jr. The stars are a baby faced action junky Tom Cruise, Val Kilmer, Tom Skerritt and Kelly McGillis. The film is centred around Tom Cruise's character Maverick. He gets the chance to join a top naval aviation school alongside his partner Goode (Anthony Edwards). This results in many exciting scenes of planes, romance and sweaty men parading in the sand.Anyone who lived through the 1980s or simply owned a lot of VHS back in the day knew of Top Gun or at least it's awesome theme song. The film had a lot of iconic scenes and an absolutely killer soundtrack. It was hard to avoid for a long time. I hadn't actually been a fan of the film growing up. I could happily enjoy it in passing but had not watched it in a fair few years. I saw the film on sale for a fiver and thought it was a good way to combat the endless dreary junk that Hollywood is churning out now. I wasn't wrong. I found the film to be a great fun time. This of course is all down to the previously mentioned plane porn, music and great performances from the whole cast.The one thing that really sticks out to me is just how well everything is shot. It doesn't matter what scene it is, there's always something going on in the back ground. Whether it's planes doing flyby's or just the natural sunlight causing some beautiful lighting. The bluray copy I bought looks really good. The colours were strong, the picture was sharp and crystal clear. It has aged a lot better than many '80s movies that have seen a re-release. The surround sound was also quite entertaining. Especially in the more intense flight sequences.Top Gun is an extremely refreshing movie to watch with the state of modern cinema. Everything in today's world needs to be dark, edgy and equipped a message so strong that you'll physically vomit from it being forced down your throat. Top Gun is a simple tale, one that it told very well and is really exciting to watch. If you're wanting a fun macho fist pumping movie to watch with your chums, this is an easy recommendation. Forget all the modern drivel and travel back to the '80s. When the world was a better place to live.

Great film, and this Bluray is the best version I can ever remember watching, like being at the Cinema all over again. Good choice of extras also as this is the 30th Anniversary version. Highly recommended purchase for fans of Tom Cruise, aviation and the Eighties!

Arrived on schedule, well packed but changed the blu ray case for a quality one as American cases are a lot thinner than British ones.No problems with disc playing.I finally upgraded from a region 1 dvd and the bluray was outstanding with both picture quality and sound.Looking forward to getting Maverick
