  Good story, great music, good movie!
Review created: 05/04/08

This is one of those movies that for some reason I'm always drawn to whenever it's on cable. It's nothing new really-- basically Top Guns on wheels-- but I still like it. What makes it so good is the music. Hans Zimmer wrote an awesome score and it's his best. He's written scores for several Academy Award nominated films but oddly enough his best work can be found here. So combine this with the great visuals and a pretty good, though unoriginal, story, you have a pretty entertaining film.

I purchased this DVD to experience the chemistry between Kidman and Cruise as they began their relationship so long ago. It was a fun, exciting film and I am so glad to get it into my collection.

  Good racing movie
Review created: 03/07/08

If you like Top Gun and like racing you will like this movie. Tom Cruise is a racecar drive and is very competitive. Its kind of a like a remake of the good ol Top Gun but with a racing side.

I LOVE this movie...it is reeeeeeeeeeeeeally good, despite the fact that it is centered around RACECARS...I LOVE IT...just the storyline makes it GREAT. and, it was done before good ol' TomKat went INSANE...I LOVE Robert Duvall, and he is AWESOME in this movie...Nicole Kidman isn't bad, either, considering my UTMOST distaste of her...!

This is one of the best movies Tom Cruise has ever made. Would recommend to anyone. If anyone tells you not to purchase this movie they are crazy. GREAT GREAT GREAT. Even better with good surround sound behind it. MUST BUY. This movie is cheap, so don't let this opportunity pass you by.

  Days of Thunder ---- Starring Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman, and Robert Duvall
Review created: 03/03/06
by: three_ster-- a member of Epinions and Top Reviewer in Movies

Pros:
Great Cast (Duvall, Kidman, Cruise), extremely exciting, well done NASCAR film, it never drags

Cons:
none

1990 brought us a thrilling action film about NASCAR and the ins and out of racing. It also brought us our first glimpse of the unknown Nicole Kidman, as a doctor who ends up treating two of the drivers later on in the movie. She is a bright spot in the film, and it ended up kick-starting her career. Let's not overlook the star of the show though, Tom Cruise, who helps to carry the film as a young driver moving over from a different form of racing to be with the "big boys." When a racing team needs a new driver, the new owner wants to try out Cole Trickle, who has performed quite well on a...

  Thunder Without Lightning Makes For Meaningless, Empty Noise
Review created: 10/04/00
by: driver4t5 -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
Soundtrack didn't pollute the airwaves nearly as long as "Top Gun", Robert Duvall

Cons:
Predictable, wooden performances, cliche hell, rape of the racing community

Hollywood loves to ram its Star Vehicles into the concrete walls that bound our senses, repeatedly attempting to penetrate and violate the contents within. Hollywood also enjoys tapping into avenues that are increasing in popularity with the masses at the time, hoping to milk the fad for as much as possible. "Days Of Thunder" was a misguided attempt to capitalize on this shopworn strategy. Tom Cruise, fresh from his successes in Top Gun and a couple prior, forgettable Star Vehicles, is the foundation for the chassis of this movie. He plays Cole Trickle, a driver plucked out of the tough World.

Review created: 11/24/00
by: mattjoe -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
It's a car racing movie

Cons:
an action film about NASCAR? The appeal wasn't there for many

For those who are not fans of NASCAR racing, this film could possibly get you interested in the sport. That was one of the main ideas back in 1990 when Days of Thunder was released. Combine Tom Cruise with Robert Duvall, some fast action with race cars, and you'll help spark an interest in the populace of America for NASCAR racing. The formula worked well for the Navy when Cruise starred in Top Gun, why not NASCAR? The film worked, just not to the extent of Top Gun. No sport draws bigger crowds than NASCAR races, and there is good reason for this. But that has little to do with the movie, so..

  Blundering Thunder
Review created: 08/11/01
by: Diversity646 -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
Tom Cruise in his second action film for Jerry Bruckheimer and Don Simpson

Cons:
Poor character and plot development, but darn good racing scenes

The late Don Simpson and his partner Jerry Bruckheimer understand Hollywood perfectly. They also understand movie audiences just about as well. They know how to take a story, add the elements that the movie public enjoys, then slap it up on the big screen to present a story that movie audiences will shell out the bucks to see. After Simpson's death, Bruckheimer has continued to offer top notch summer fare. But, this is definitely NOT the best movie that the producing duo has had to offer. Cashing in on the success of 1985's Top Gun, Don and Jerry re-hired Tom Cruise to play race car driver...

  Best Sound, Best Action
Review created: 01/17/00
by: rcbrian -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
Sound, Effects, Acting

Cons:
None

We just purchased a 43" Sony TV and one of the first movies purchased was Days Of Thunder. Every time I went into a store this Christmas they were showing Days of Thunder to promote selling Surround Sound and large screen TVs. We also have a DVD player and a Sony Surround Sound connected to the TV so we were ready for an experience. When we first put the movie in the DVD it started and all looked and sounded as normal. Then we hiked up the sound and turned on the Dolby Surround Sound and WOW!! Made my eyes bug out. The sound of the cars racing past the stands made you feel like you were there.
