In Top Gun, Tom Cruise stars as Pete Mitchell (alias Maverick) who dons a flight suit and sets out to prove himself the best of the best among other pilots. Filled with testosterone-charged dramatic action, male bonding, aerial dogfights, and locker-room boasting at a U.S. Navy flight school for fighter pilots, Top Gun also blends the right mix of ingredients to appeal to feminine tastes in romantic date movies. Men have always raved about this movie, but there's also plenty for women to enjoy.

Why Women Love Top Gun Starring Tom Cruise

1. Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer starred in this 1986 romantic action film when they were both in prime condition in their mid-twenties. Kelly McGillis as the slightly older flight instructor with a Ph.D. in astrophysics comes across as a strong confident woman. As the love interest for Maverick, she projects the right amount of beauty, charm, and vulnerability that women viewers can admire without feeling too threatened.
