Top Gunner

Fantastic movie for anyone suffering from insomnia, cured in 30 seconds, chemical free.

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.

Eric Roberts in a "Top Gun" ripoff from The Asylum- What could possibly go wrong with that formula? Turns out, even more than I could possibly imagine. While normally I would encourage people in any artistic endeavor, no matter how ill-conceived, in this case, I'm asking (nay, pleading) with both Roberts and The Asylum to just... stop. For the love of all that is holy and just, please do not make any more videos! Sell the camera and donate the rest of the equipment to the A/V Department at the local high school for the tax write-off. Then just walk away, Renee... This makes "Plan 9 from Outer Space" look like Shakespeare...

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.

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.
