Top Gunner

Not even 5 min into this movie and you see a female "sniper" aim and take down 6-7 guys while overlooking her sights vertically and not even bothering looking into her sights.

Not even gonna give this the light of day.

Zero effort.

They could have paid a high school boy that loves to build models and gotten all the names and jargon more correct! Watch C.W. Lemoine on Mover Ruins Movies. Best way to watch this horrible movie.

Pull up! Collision alert! Pull up! Pull up!

Granted, I had a feeling that this was going to be another one of those lousy mockbusters from The Asylum. I assumed as much from the mere title of the movie and its cover. And true enough to my assumptions, as I saw The Asylum's logo on the intro screen, then of course it was as expected.

Still, I opted to give the movie a chance, despite of it having Eric Roberts on the cast list. Why? Well, because once in a blue moon, then The Asylum actually manages to produce something that is entertaining and worth the time and effort.

"Top Gunner" wasn't one such instance. Nay. "Top Gunner" was atrociously bad and pointless. It was a massive struggle to just sit through the ordeal. Did writer Geoff Meed manage to produce anything even remotely worthwhile watching? No. Did director Daniel Lusko manage to turn the lack of a proper storyline and script into a watchable movie? No.

The acting in the movie was actually not all that bad, just a shame that the actors and actresses had literally nothing to work with in terms of a proper script, storyline or characters.

If you enjoy flight movies and pilot dramas, then do yourself a favor and stay clear of this one. "Top Gunner" was by no means an interesting, entertaining, watchable, enjoyable or wholehearted movie. Sure, there are far worse movies out there, but the 2020 movie "Top Gunner" is up there.

My rating of "Top Gunner" lands on a two out of ten stars.

I'd rather climb up to Mount Everest, naked and freezing than spend another minute of my life on this bundle of garbage. Please DO NOT watch.

Yes, a Top Gun remake (or sequel?) was scheduled for summer 2020. Apparently this did not stop the producers to quickly push their own mock version of Top Gun to the market. Market? What market? All Top Gun veterans from the 1980's wouldn't come close to this cinematic crap let alone watch it and the Millennials don't know what the heck this is. So who is this movie intended for? Beats me.

Also, Eric Roberts seemed to follow in Nick Cage's footsteps by accepting virtually every script that winds up in his mailbox. No matter how bad it is. Seems neither two have a reputation anymore to uphold.

The producers were also snotty and bold enough to keep "Top Gun" in the release title, which is surprising. So if you love amateur acting, plot holes, anachronisms, goofs, errors, visual mistakes and clueless directing, then you came to the right picture. Everyone with a bit of cinematic taste should avoid this though as it will cause eye cancer, bleeding from both ears and uncontrollable vomiting.
