Top Gun vs. Iron Eagle
Top Gun vs. Iron Eagle
It’s a high flying film fight with the favorite Top Gun matched against dog fighting sensation Iron Eagle. Ok, we already know what your thinking…How in the world could Iron Eagle compete with the glory that is ‘Top Gun’…but there are some loyal Iron Eagle / Louis Gossett Jr. fans out there and this should be a great match up. Yeah TG has Mr. Cruise and Val Kilmer, but how can you beat Doug Masters rockin his tunes at 30,000 feet in a stolen F-16 fighter jet?
Top Gun - Tom Cruise is the macho students of an elite US Flying school for advanced fighter pilots compete to be best in the class, but after a horrible flying accident, and the death of his co-pilot, does Maverick have what it takes to bounce back and become the best fighter pilot in the world?
vs.
Iron Eagle - When Doug Masters’ father, an Air Force Pilot, is shot down by MiGs belonging to a radical Middle Eastern state, Doug rallies his gang of Air Force brats and an old retired Colonel to put a plan together to fly over and save his father from impending execution.

Gotta go with Top Gun & Maverick. No contest…Iron Eagle is just cheese. Sorry.
Iron Eagle every time!
Top Gun is too slow, has a distracting love interest and raging homoerotic undertones!
Iron Eagle gets straight on with what you want from a war film and has a vastly better score. ‘One Vision’ by Queen and ‘We’re Not Gonna Take It’ by Twisted Sister vs. ‘Take My Breath Away’ by Berlin and ‘You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling’ by the cast of hammy extras?
Come on!!!
Besides, Will Young never made an Iron Eagle-inspired music video did he…?
Iron Eagle ftw!
though iron eagle seems to be a cheesy 80’s action movie……i guess the movies is an underrated masterpiecs….take a look at too many films that edited aerial scenes from “iron eagle”
Better flying, better soundtrack, Top gun is just so not even in the same race
Iron Eagle rocks, top gun just blows
