I have to say that I loved this movie for the pure reason that I really identified with it. I haven't read Matheson's book but I've read Scott Peck's 'In heaven as on earth' and to me, it seems that they have a few elements in common. I would generally have to say that it's really down to the individual and their view on the afterlife. But you could say that that's not what it's all about, it's also a great love story and how one man would rather choose hell over heaven just to be with the one woman he truly loves and the one his heart will belong to for all eternity. I would tell you, that if you haven't seen the film, to do a bit of preliminary reading first on it's plot and if you like it, go see the movie, because I guarantee you'll love it!

The fact that people are still writing about this film 15yrs after it was first released (and I'm not just talking about me!) really says a lot. I was dubious about writing a comment, seeing as it really has been ages since it was released and thinking that most people who wanted to see it probably already have. After recently watching it for the umpteenth time on TV, I felt compelled to write a quickie ;) I have to say, it's the first time I looked up Top Gun on the imdb and I was actually quite surprised that it only received a 6.4 rating. If you haven't seen the movie yet, don't judge it by the ratings, read a few user comments first and just rent it out, I guarantee you'll have a good time, especially with its amazing soundtrack! The best 80's songs ever written, I still get chills down my back listening to them ;) It's a simple plot but there's something about it that makes it a seriously enjoyable film and one you can watch time and time again. Go have fun! Enjoy!
