Great reaction ladies ...This was another hilarious spoof comedy by the ZAZ team...Jerry Zucker, Jim Abraham & David Zucker and Val Kilmer's big screen debut (and yes that is his actual singing voice). Glad that you both enjoyed it. Also the British actor playing Deja-Vu (Jim Carter) would later be more well known worldwide for playing Mr. Carson, the head butler on the award winning drama series 'Downton Abby'.

[@MLJ7956]

If you're looking for another ZAZ spoof movie, then check out their very first big screen outing, The Kentucky Fried Movie (1977) - it spoofs Bruce Lee's: Enter The Dragon and television itself in general, including parodies of commercials too....also unlike their other films, which are mostly rated PG-13, this one is a hard R, but it is still hilariously funny though.

The underwater saloon fight has to be one of the most original ideas I've ever seen. It caught me off guard.

[@johncampbell756]

​@@ForceOfLightEntertainmentDirectors David Zucker and Jim Abrahams told ScreenCrush in 2014 that the actors in the scene held their breath underwater while they shot in 10 or 15 second increments, then returned to the surface. “The hardest part was not laughing and running out of oxygen,” added Kilmer. - Screen Crush

I love the Mohammed Ali moves during the fight scene

[@tobeski]

One of the best but least known comedies of all time. Worth it for Peter Cushing and Omar Sharif having immense fun

[@LordVolkov]

The whole backwards library scene with Peter is amazing. I still have trouble wrapping my mind around some of the gags 🤯

[@richardb6260]

Maybe better known now. But it was a box office disappointment. It needed to make over $20 million to break even and made just under that. Compare that to the over $170 million Airplane! made.

[@tobeski]

@@LordVolkov That they filmed backwards and in a single take is astonishing work

[@rimasmuliolis1136]

Val Kilmer's singing is on the sound track but he's only listed as Nick Rivers.

[@chanceneck8072]

My all time favorite #1!!

[@neneshubby]

One of the most underrated of the 80’s spoof movies.

[@CitiesTurnedToDust]

They're doing a mash-up, spoofing several things at once: -- cold war spy movies -- world war 2 action movies -- late 50s early 60s teen movies especially Elvis Presley movies -- and of course Blue Lagoon

[@RoseBaggins]

Oh man, been wanting to see this ever since my family caught the first minutes on Pluto TV. If that's what it's making fun of, this is going to be a blast!

[@ForceOfLightEntertainment]

Thanks!

[@JohnnyUtah15]

Bonanza tv show, western fight scene trope also.

[@troubadour1029]

The great escape too

[@tempsitch5632]

It’s a time-period mash-up too.

[@JasonMorgan-s5y]

Another thing is Val Kilmer played alongside Michael Gough in this and fascinatingly enough they were in Batman forever together also

[@coldflamebluedragon196]

The Indiana Jones style truck chase that turns into an underwater saloon brawl is probably one of the greatest jokes in cinema

[@JKM395]

Between the underwater bar fight and the backwards scene, this is one of the most creative movies out there, as well as being outrageously funny. I've always loved this.

[@tenjed4224]

Omar Shariff, one of the best film actors, ever had a ball doing this movie.

[@TonyTigerTonyTiger]

Ah, that's his name. Couldn't think of it. All I could think of was Dr. Zhivago (or however that is spelled)

[@ChrisEllisMedia]

Here are a couple of genres/movies they are spoofing: 1. Elvis concerts/movies. In fact the name Nick Rivers is a take on Elvis' character Deke Rivers in the movie "Loving You." 2. James Bond/Spy movies - the car crushing scene is taken directly from a similar scene in "Goldfinger." 3. WW2 movies such as Casablanca (dialogue during the parachute scene), the Great Escape (motorcycle scene just like Steve McQueen), Dirty Dozen, etc. 4. 60's beach movies such as Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello, etc. 5. Indiana Jones with the truck fight scene. There are plenty of other smaller nods to things, but these are the most obvious ones. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@ForceOfLightEntertainment]

Thanks Chris!!

[@davidmarquardt9034]

@@ForceOfLightEntertainment Also you have Nazis in communist East Germany!? But the athletes--that was true, most country's produce coal or wood or food. But East Germany, their claim to fame was athletes. In their propaganda drive to prove that Communism was superior to the West, all their athletes were trained in government training facility's and pumped up with massive dose,s of steroids. They did win many Olympic medals, but the athletes paid a horrible price, some died other were crippled. But that,s communism, the Party is everything, the individual is worthless.

"Top Secret!" was a follow-up film after "Airplane!" was a huge success, both made by the same team. It was a spoof of intrigue, thriller, espionage movies generally.

[@Neojonz]

From what I heard, the face-cast they took of Peter Cushing for the big eye prosthetic, was what they used to generate the digital Moff Tarkin in Rogue One

[@christhompson2006]

Val does all his own singing in this movie

[@victornewmanforever]

The skeet surfing joke came up while the filmmakers were doing interviews for Airplane!. At one point, they got bored answering the same questions all the time. So they invented this game where they would say the silliest thing in the most serious way to the point that it would be taken at face value and printed in the newspaper. When asked, "What did you do during your teenage years in Milwaukee?", they would talk about skeet surfing.

[@tempsitch5632]

Highly recommend the old david lettermen interview with all three of them from back in the day. It’s hysterical. They change clothes with each other during commercial breaks.

[@mblackwl]

Ah. Top Secret, the finest Elvis WW2 Spy Movie ever made. And for you younguns, Mel Torme was a jazz singer popularly known as "The Velvet Fog" due to his smooooth vocal stylings. He was active from the 40s to the 60s. He was also Judge Harold T. Stone's from Night Court's favorite musician. ... I will now need to explain what Night Court was as that reference is also 30-40 years old now.... Oh, and for another young Val Kilmer comedy, Real Genius.

The backward German library scene is the best acted scene in movie history. The movie is making fun of old spy movies and the ridiculousness of the Elvis movies. Val Kilmer actually sang all those songs, as well. Skit Surfing is my jam!

[@LordVolkov]

Hard to believe this is Val Kilmer's first movie. Though bittersweet given his current health problems, Val crooning his way through this wacky spy parody is so lovely. He's just so charming and talented here it's wild that this is his debut. The underwater saloon fight is easily my favorite scene. It's so well done, completely absurd, and absolutely hilarious. You ladies would also love Val in The Doors and Real Genius (for starters, he has a ton of great movies)

[@ForceOfLightEntertainment]

Thanks!

[@Kickinwyng]

They just don't do scenes like that anymore. Not without CGI anyway. Such a shame.

[@LordVolkov]

@@Kickinwyng Way of Water got pretty close, pre-CGI enhancement. Large water tank sets, free diving trained actors, and off-screen O² assist divers. But it's also miserable to shoot in, being wet and cold all day, and James Cameron has almost gotten people killed doing similar work in The Abyss, which is why it is not done so much these days 😅

[@HorrorFan-WrestlingFan]

And to think a year later Val Kilmer was in TopGun and became a big star it's so sad that such a talent has had voice stolen by cancer a fantastic actor ❤

[@WilliamScavengerFish]

A few scenes not in this version: One of Flomaunds assistants makes an apple. Flomaund tosses the apple outside and it explodes like a gernade. At the very end, the German general is brought to the same crushing yard that Cedrick was brought to...and dropped into the same crusher...which is being operated by cedrick...still encased in the car.

[@TearyEyesAndersonReacts]

"Transylvania Twist" 1989, has always been my favorite spoof movie. Slapstick, puns, visual gags, and songs, and silly synth music.

[@thetwikikid4444]

That little German joke is a derivative of the “I had a hunch back at the station” joke from the Police Squad series

There was a girl I was friends with in high school from 85-89. We dropped one-liners to each other from this movie all 4 years! Great memories! If they still made movies like this, the world would be a better place. Seriously! Having fun stuff like this to bond over really was unifying.

[@alwaysdriveing]

My sister loved this movie. I know every word of it because she watched it so much when we were growing up. Basically just a spoof of all the cold war espionage movies that were common back then.

[@jeremygeorgia4943]

During the 70's, war movies were particularly popular. Many of them had carried over from the previous decades. You had black & white war themed shows as reruns, but you also had shows like CPO Sharkey and Black Sheep Squadron. So, war films were pretty familiar to an 80's audience. Top Secret isn't spoofing any film in particular, but it is poking fun at the WWII genre. The odd thing is, rather than being set in World War times, it's set in East Germany, during the time of the Iron Curtain. It's pretty contemporary for the time, and even mentions the Carter Administration. It always brings me joy, when someone actually gets the Pinto joke. In another decade, I'm not sure anyone will understand the context of that scene. This is one of my favorite films. It is so well crafted. When you think about the Swedish bookstore scene and the underwater fight, they really went all out on the production. It has a very good balance of story & a sheer number of sight gags. Yet, the way everything is taking everything so seriously, it's more than just a comedic skit movie.

[@flashgordon6238]

[@michelereynolds3527]

My parents had this movie on VHS. So my brothers and I watched this movie all the time when we were kids. It's always been one of my favorite comedies. But you're right it's definitely a movie you don't hear about anymore.

[@tisdue]

Val Kilmer has one of the most underrated careers of all time.

[@LordVolkov]

"I guess this is Germany before the Berlin Wall fell?" 👍 It's a general parody of 'singer-features' (movies headlined by the likes of Elvis, Frankie Valley, etc) mixed with post WW-2 cold war thrillers. I think the decade is intentionally vague.

[@BigGator5]

"My uncle was born in America." "Oh, really?" "But he was one of the lucky ones. He managed to escape in a balloon during the Jimmy Carter presidency." Fun Fact: Theatrical movie debut of Val Kilmar. Director Cameos Fact: Directors Jim Abrahams, David Zucker, and Jerry Zucker appear as the German soldiers who show up at the door of the prop room to arrest Nick (Val Kilmer). Final Bow Fact: Peter Cushing, who began his screen career in the old Hollywood of the late 1930s, makes his final appearance in an American production. He made three more British films before passing in 1994. Music Enthusiast Fact: The songs that Val Kilmer sings in the film are actually performed by Val Kilmer himself and were featured on the film's soundtrack released in 1984 under Kilmer's character's name Nick Rivers. When Nick Rivers is in jail, a head shot of Cher can be clearly seen on the wall of the cell several times. Val Kilmer was dating Cher at the time. The Bookstore Scene Fact: The scene where Hillary (Lucy Gutteridge) and Nick (Val Kilmer) go into the Swedish bookstore was staged, shot, and then run backward for a "unique" sound. If you record the scene and play it backward, you will find all of the dialogue to be exactly what is shown in the subtitles except for the title of the book. "Europe On Five Quaaludes A Day" (which I can't confirm as real) is what Hillary asked for. A forward-playing version of the Swedish bookstore scene can be found on the DVD. The sight gag of Peter Cushing and the magnifying glass is a parody of a similar shot of Cushing from Terence Fisher's The Curse of Frankenstein (1957). The prosthetic that Peter Cushing wore in the bookshop scene involved the making of a cast of his face to fit it to. This same cast was used 30 years later by ILM to build a CGI model of his face for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016).

I had no idea who Val Kilmer was, this was his film debut, but I knew immediately he was gonna be a star. I love this movie.😂

[@richwelling3409]

You asked which movie this movie is spoofing. It is not a single movie, or even a single genre. Elvis Presley made several movies in the 1960s where he would break out into song several times during the show. This movie spoofs those movies. It also spoofs 1960s spy movies. ZAZ (Zucker, Abrams, and Zucker, the directors of this movie) did a kind of mashup where they combined those two genres and then spoofed them both.

[@lazyperfectionist1]

12:00 "Now, remember, folks, you have to perform this scene _completely_ straight-faced. It's an absurd scene, and that absurdity is intensified for the audience if you don't react to it, so don't react to it. One smile and we have to start over."

[@_PL_]

Now y'all have to check out "Scary Movie" (2000), which spoofs 1990's flicks like Scream, Sixth Sense, I Know What You Did Last Summer, and many others. I think you'd get a kick out of it.

[@ForceOfLightEntertainment]

Would but we have seen them!

[@victornewmanforever]

After Airplane!, the filmmakers couldn't decide which genre they'd spoof next between WWII spy thrillers or Elvis' musicals so they decided to combine both! Except for The Great Escape, the most famous movies that are spoofed are not related to Elvis or WWII: Goldfinger (the man crushed in the car), The Blue Lagoon (Hillary and Nigel flashbacks), Jaws (the cow attack), the tv series Bonanza (the underwater saloon fight), the Wizard of Oz (the final goodbye). Some references are honestly more obscure, like 1944's The Conspirators (Hillary fleeing to a restaurant after witnessing the shooting of a colleague in an alley and taking refuge at the table of a stranger. A blind man in the street selling goods from a case hanging from his neck.)

[@NarwahlGaming]

Did you feel like you'd seen him before? 😂

[@solarwhale]

One of the best comedies of all time, and one of my favorites. So many iconic scenes and lines. I highly suggest watching the Swedish book store scene a couple times, must have been wild to try and film. The modern day spirit animal to this film in my mind would have to be Tropic Thunder. Some scenes spoof some early bond films, Octopussy comes to mind (opening train scene). Another funny note, the in movie dubbing often has nothing to do with the actual German and French being spoken so if you speak either it's often an entirely new layer of comedy. Fans of WWII and post WWII history, movies and documentaries all appreciate this movie as it usually pulls the right strings.

[@BaccarWozat]

Spoofing Elvis musicals and WW2 movies was the original intent, though obviously there's cold war and Beach Boys references. The movie used to be longer but they trimmed some of the jokes and kept them on the DVD as deleted scenes. I liked the sudden Pac-Man when they were doing the "Indiana Jones map with drawn arrow" bit, but it was 1984 so it was funnier at the time. There were FOUR Doctor Who actors in the film. The easy ones are Peter Cushing and Michael Gough. Of the other two, one was a Dalek (Cy Town, playing one of the anthem singers) and another was Katy Manning's stuntman (not stuntwoman-- Stuart Fell, playing Avant-Garde).

[@happymethehappyone8300]

TRUST ME on this MUST SEE absolute Classic Movie,, "The Outlaw Josey Wales" (1976)..A truly iconic movie. ❤

[@victornewmanforever]

A lot of the "German" language used in the movie is actually Yiddish spelled to look like German. For example, the restaurant is named "Gey Schlüffen". "Gay schluffen" is actually Yiddish for "Go to sleep".

[@Sarahbuildsstepsequencers]

They spoofed numerous tv shows, films, music and commercials of the time. It was current events humor in general. It’s so hard not to laugh because it’s joke-joke-joke-joke most of the way through. It’s silly good fun and a great escape!

Okay, how many of you are old enough to get the gag about the German car barely tapping the Ford Pinto and having it explode into flames? So many period gags in this movie, and if you weren't alive during this time, or have a good understanding of what happened, many of the jokes and gags will go over people's heads.

[@CaviteñoCavalrymanChe]

Happy you finally reviewed this movie! Vast laundry list of movies it spoof’s ranges from; Elvis’ acting career, World War II era, Westerns, and recent movies at the time it came out. This movie also showcases younger Val’s singing voice and guitar playing he learned for the role of Nick Rivers. Soundtrack of 6 songs came out on cassette and LP featuring his parody songs. Although early in his career, one could sense the “Real Genius” of his method of acting, and why throat cancer has robbed us of his full potential as an artist.

[@NotPoliticalCorrect]

[@charlesmaurer6214]

This was his first film, Real Genius was his second and then Top Gun made Val a household name. Also shows an even more American sport than American Football or Baseball. Maybe Skeet Motor Racing might top it. You shoot and drive at the same time and 10 seconds are added the time for each miss and hits are required to free tires for the pit crew to change or gas to refill with.

Wow what a surprise didn't expect you to react to this great movie. This is from the same directors and Airplane and The Naked Gun Trilogy. Other great Val Kilmer movies are Wilow and The Saint. Other great spoof movies are Loaded gun which is a spoof on the The first 3 Lethal weapons movies and Silence Of the Hams which A spoof on Silence of the Lambs. This movies general classic spy/war time movies and also make fun of Elvis and The Beach Boys. A great 80's spy comedy you should see not a spoof is Gotcha!

[@ReallyBadSeed]

I've seen this movie MANY times, and like you didn't really know about it. I had always enjoyed Airplane and the Naked Gun movies, and I just stumbled upon this one and still love it to this day. I particularly enjoy watching others see it for the first time. You need to watch it a few more times and listen closely to what people say to get more of the gags in it. Another movie I'd recommend you watch, and it is a comedy, is the 1980 film "Midnight Madness". It's incredibly corny but also quite funny. It is actually the first film Michael J Fox ever starred in. Check it out.
