In between the disaster movie satire Airplane! in 1980 and the hardboiled cop show parody The Naked Gun in 1988, the comedy crew of Jerry Zucker, Jim Abrahams, and David Zucker put together a picture that's almost as funny as their better-known hits. Top Secret! sends up spy movies and cheesy teen rock & roll musicals. Val Kilmer stars as swivel-hipped American rocker Nick Rivers, a sort of blonde Elvis whose secret weapon is Little Richard's tune "Tutti Fruitti." On tour behind the Iron Curtain, Nick strikes blows for democracy overtly and covertly, with his music as well as his espionage skills. In short, this is a very, very silly motion picture. Some great gags, including a subtitled scene in a Swedish book shop, and an inspired bit with a Ford Pinto that not everybody may get anymore. (The Pinto, you may or may not recall, was notoriously prone to gas tank explosions when rear-ended.) --Jim Emerson

 A must see for anyone with a sense of humor! October 13, 2008
I love this movie. It never gets old. Top Secret is an often overlooked comedic treasure.
 Overlooked comedy September 15, 2008
I saw this movie as a teenager in the 80's with my friends. What a blast! Val Kilmer is truly hilarious. He should do more comedy. If you like movies like Airplane! and Hot Shots! you'll enjoy this one too. There are a lot sight gags in this movie.
The jokes are older, like from the 40's, so I'm not sure it matters what age watches it. If you've had any kind of history lessons, the jokes and gags will be funny.
Brillante May 12, 2008
Aun me rio cuando la veo, brillante, Val Kilmer destaca
I still laugh when I see the movie, Val Kilmer is really amazing in this movie
A classic April 9, 2008
Frankly, I think this movie was way better than the airplane flicks. If you haven't seen it, you are missing out. Go get it, watch it, and then watch it again. Every time I put this movie in, I end up watching it about five times in a row--at least.
 fun movie October 17, 2007
