7.1

Zack Mayo is an aloof, taciturn man who aspires to be a navy pilot. Once he arrives at training camp for his 13-week officer's course, Mayo runs afoul of abrasive, no-nonsense drill Sergeant Emil Foley. Mayo is an excellent cadet, but a little cold around the heart, so Foley rides him mercilessly, sensing that the young man would be prime officer material if he weren't so self-involved. Zack's affair with a working girl is likewise compromised by his unwillingness to give of himself.

I'm glad I didn't read critics review and just went with my gut. It's more than a love story, it's becoming a man story.

The most 80s movie to exist. So melodramatic yet I love every minute of this. It’s like Top Gun, but less hyped up. An iconic ending too.

If you relate to and/or love Tom Cruise's character in Top Gun you'll love Richard Gere's in this film. A wonderful coming-of-age romance.

A classic romance. But unless you're a fan of the genre, you're not likely to find much to hold your interest.

Richard Gere is the only reason fo watch this. His performance completely masks the presence of the hateful negative Winger.
