One of the first movies ever made available to home viewership through VHS. Before that economics was just to rent.

Top Gun still holds up. One of the greatest films ever made

All movies from 25+ years ago are slow. People had longer

No. A guy I know began to realize his ... other teamness ... during that scene.

That's just because he first saw the movie in 2010 and googled Kelly McGinnis...

It was a high school movie for my era. All of us loved it.

It’s overrated. Most people let nostalgia cloud their movie judgement.

It came out when I was 11. I didn't like it then and never rewatched it.

Most 80's movies don't hold up. Top Gun barely holds up.

Such a great movie! All my kids loved it and are stoked to go see Maverick.

I enjoy it, even still. Wayched it with my 14-year-old daughter and we laughed at some of the cheesy parts

I liked it growing up. I still like it now but it’s more cheesy than I remember.

I liked it when it came out, but I don't need to see it again.
