THE eighties classic Top Gun will be soaring back onto the big screen at Odeon Merry Hill this weekend.

The 6pm screening on Sunday (September 4) will mark the thirtieth anniversary of the fan-favourite fighter pilot film.

Directed by Tony Scott and starring Tom Cruise, Kelly McGillis and Val Kilmer, Top Gun follows the story of a young, daring fighter pilot called Maverick (Cruise), as he competes against his peers in the United States Navy’s Top Gun Naval Flying School, training to become the very best pilots in the world whilst at times struggling to keep their egos in check.

To ensure film fans don’t ride the highway to the danger zone on their own, Odeon is offering two-for-one tickets for the event.

James Morris, general manager at Odeon Merry Hill, said: “We can’t wait for Goose and Maverick to fly on to the big screen again to mark 30 years of one of the most iconic films of all time.

“We certainly haven’t lost that loving feeling for Top Gun, and we hope there’ll be plenty of film fans in the area who will come and enjoy this classic with their own ‘wingmen’.”
