Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very impressive DVD
Review: The men who go through the Top Gun school are the best of the best. This movie is not your average documentary just put on DVD for the hell of it. Somebody went all out on the DVD menus and extra features. Great extra footage on top of a fascinating story about the formation of the Top Gun school. I rate the film a 4 and the DVD a 5 since this DVD has better features, graphics, and menus than a lot of Hollywood feature films do.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Vintage footage ...not present depection of TOP GUN
Review: This DVD is purely a history of the origin of the Top Gun school and NOT anything about the training programme there .The footage is very old and whole focus is on vietnam .

The additional sections are a 60 - 80 seconds clips of pilots suiting up and then a F-18 flying . Dont buy it for more then 2 dollars including shipping ...thats all its worth

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Forget the motion picture, this is the real deal: history
Review: This is an absolute marvel of a video. The film quality is superb, unlike some others. It is a very gripping historical account of who, what and why Top Gun is. Now that the original Top Gun is no longer at NAS Miramar, and now that things on the military scene are changing, Top Gun represents and elite element of history. Get this video. I wish the producers made more films like this. This is not some motion picture fantasy, this is the real deal...

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: extremely interesting
Review: this program is all about the creation of top gun and its first class and i never knew hardly any of this stuff. it's a real documentary not just a video exploiting the interest in top gun. it tells a story. lots of very good combat and f-4 footage. good interviews too with most of the original top gun people. don't be fooled by the cover though, there is extremely little f-18 footage in this whole show. if you're interested in fighter planes, it's a great program.
