Be Top Gun – there are no points for second place
Lancashire Evening Post
|May 12, 2025
In 1986, smack dab in the middle of the bodacious decade of neon, headbangers and the Brat Pack, the movie Top Gun roared into cinemas like an F-14 Tomcat.
-
It got a missile lock on the box office and shot down more than £268,338,916, making it what would eventually be the 11th highest-grossing movie of Tom Cruise's career.
The movie revolves round Maverick, a hotshot pilot, who is sent to the US Navy Fighter Weapons school, and all of the drama, pride and testosterone that scenario entails.
The film was so popular, quotable and part of the culture that more than 20 years later, it got its own day. Welcome to To Gun Day - May 13.
