Not recommended...

A Top Gun (1986) ripoff with predictable Korean slapstick humour, poor excuse for drama and plenty of corny slow motion sequences. Commendable air combat action but it's ridiculous how a simple no-brainer plot (with North Korea as the bad guys, they always are) could still have so many flaws. There are even scenes that look like advertisements for their very notable sponsors (the bike, the phones, the camera, Chivas, etc). Soar into the Sun is only recommended for the fans of Rain and Shin Se Syung, and to those who has never heard of Top Gun.

Agreed waste of time... just watch the (unrealistic) air to air combat on youtube job done.

Have to admit i did not notice the product placement until i read your comment.

I was thinking that too. I'm disappointed in this movie ... I've never seen top gun but it was really slow paced and I knew she was going to be the love interest ... very predictable :/ I just wanted to see Rains beautiful face lol

At 2 and half minutes in I could already see it coming. Somehow the lead manages to make his jet immune to gravity. I mean, there's got to be -some- credibilty to these movies. Otherwise they just seem ridiculous.
