As a pilot, I appreciate how realistic this scene is. The stall warning caused by a plane loaded out of limits, was awesome. Tom cruise is a light airplane pilot himself, and wouldn’t let this scene look all wack.
The accuracy is mainly because it wasnt CGI, they didnt even tell Cruise about acting, they actually just happened to secretly film Tom Cruise on his daily day which happened to be him flying a 1500 point over-max-limit cessna for the columbian cartel
@@FromBKI while were at it, someone tell Mark Wahlberg enough comedies and true stories... make a drama thriller like Shooter or Departed... People need it lol
Well it's a way to a win win situation. If the plane crashes, he loses faith but gets some cash, if it does not, well Christ is one hell of a cocaine enthusiast.
Say what you want but tom cruise is probably the greatest movie star ever created. Look at only his movies and his performances. Leave all other stuff out of it. Dude is amazing
i agree and can say that about a lot more because i can make the choice of separating the art from the artist. Never meeting your heroes and also never look for the skeleton in the closet because we all have them.
There's nothing brave about that, he's a protected actor living in Hollywood. Diego Luna making narcos is brave, in the current narco atmosphere and living in Mexico City.
That "pablo escobar" is one of the best actors in colombia. Mauricio Mejía. Once he played someone from the north of Colombia, my region. It was so freaking realistic. He can play music in words.
This is a true story, slightly embellished for the film but basically true nonetheless. What is very strange to me is that when the pilot betrayed Escobar he knew perfectly well there would be severe reprisals, yet he went on with his life as if it were all back to normal oblivious to the inevitability of a hit. Now that was STUPID!
@@markherring3513 true. Nevertheless he was part of the chain. When I was in the game, the whole chain from cutting to distribution became fair game if implicated in a betrayal. I lucked out big time. I worked in the USA during the eighties. Lots of heroin and cocaine shipment chains, one of which was betrayed, and I was on that chain. I got out, and they didn’t follow me. Lucky.
If I had a dollar for every time Tom Cruise’s character is a pilot that has to take off from a short runway, I’d have two dollars. Which isn’t a lot but it kinda weird it happened twice huh?

Tom actually flew through all those trees and did his own stunts as per usual. 1st take this time though. That was also really Pablo Escobar's son and the real Carlos Lehder. WOW
@@SamBrickell True... but look at what the British did to China with opium. Wrecked their society and economy. Insane. Imagine an entire country wrecked with heroin. That would be something.
@@SamBrickell Yet your expect government to provide you financial security & social security. How to expect the government to be able to do that when a big part of the work force is under the influence of drugs. I remember growing up and seeing the world look up to the USA for solutions. What happened to your people?
American Made! Brilliant Movie! I remember living in Central Florida, watching all those Cessna’s flying over head! & jokingly thinking someone has their own air forces!! 😂😂😂😂😂
Sad backstory. The day after filming was finished, the plane Cruise’s character flew, was destroyed when a careless local pilot slammed into the side of a hill trying to scud run due to poor weather. Unfortunately, on board in the backseat was a very famous helicopter and plane pilot for the movies, whose flying skills and camera systems were used in movies like the Transformers. Amongst many others.
Fun fact: The actor who plays Pablo Escobar in this film played Carlos Costano who was a part of the group ‘Los Pepes’ which was trying to kill Pablo Escobar in Narcos.
This movie is basically a sequel to Risky Business. All-American guy doing bad stuff for money and kicks and hoping his family does not find out. Too bad Cruise doesn't do more movies like this. I loved this movie, and Risky Business.
Jorge always had faith in Barry clearing that takeoff. P.S This movie has so much rewatchability vibe. i have watched A few good men and this movie numerous times
Haven’t seen this one, just some few clips. But I can already tell you the Dennis Hopper as Barry Seal movie, “Double Crossed”, was done significantly better IMO. Curious if anyone else saw that one
Hi everyone! What grade (out of 10) would you give this video?
3
Entertaining, well contextualized, quality is on par, id say is a 9
9....great character. The type of movie that you could watch over and over.

I like how the title implies Tom Cruise himself did it.
Well in fact he is a certified pilot man, I mean he owned a P-51 Mustang
While training for this film he literally flew cocaine across the border for the mexican cartels

the only thing they missed is starting the run without flaps and then deploying the flaps a couple of knots before rotation
I feel like the most unrealistic part was people not trusting the pilot on weight limit….
You don’t have to be a wanabe pilot to know that this is super basic knowledge

He used to be a very good drama actor, specially when he was in 90's.
action films make more money. he needs it to fund scientology marketing budget
@FromBKI He cab hardly speak English 😂He needs to stick to comedy!

It's extremely obvious that you're not supposed to understand because he doesn't understand.

Brave from Tom to make this documentary of his days of drug smuggling
There's nothing brave about that, he's a protected actor living in Hollywood. Diego Luna making narcos is brave, in the current narco atmosphere and living in Mexico City.
I don't know why when everyone stares into the plane and the guy says "But there's plenty of room, Gringo", that makes me laugh every time
even i said the same thing at the floor tiles shop about making 2 trips to my house to deliver.
That "pablo escobar" is one of the best actors in colombia. Mauricio Mejía. Once he played someone from the north of Colombia, my region. It was so freaking realistic. He can play music in words.
Also played young escobar and one of the Castanos in Narcos and Patron del mal
I thought this actor was Samoan living in the USA? There's a Pablo Escobar that was played by a Samoan actor.
Young Escobar from El Patron del mal, right?
@@DizzyMakavelli yes, that the one. Awesome actor.
@@JJWerm He’s good.
One of Tom Cruises best films!. It's not the plane it's the pilot..

Plus the actor for Pablo Escobar is the actor for one of the costano brothers in Netflix’s narcos
Hadn't realised how funny this film is at first look. This is great stuff

You would have a lot more
I love how they are making bets at the side 😂😂😂
It's not the plane it's the pilot.
wrong movie man
:)
He did not think he just did
Family
He in fact “did some of that pilot shit”
IN PLAIN AND SIMPLE ENGLISH WITH AN ACCENT OR NOT 🚫 THIS IS 🥇 GOLD 🥇
To prepare for his role Tom Cruise actually used his pilots license to fly real drugs for cartels.

"Either I fly the big fella, or I flr your product!"
Great sequence - but there is NO stall warning horn on an Aerostar
JR
maybe he picked up an after market one at autozone
I like how Tom Cruise is doing his side hustle
best actor of our generation
one of the best movies ever made
love the beginning he was like "just some poor entrepreneurs into a new joint venture" 😂
I rewatch this part so many times, bcoz of their funny conversation and that short runway makes pilot even more challenging.

Tom actually flew through all those trees and did his own stunts as per usual. 1st take this time though. That was also really Pablo Escobar's son and the real Carlos Lehder. WOW

Carlos Ledher is still alive? I'm more shocked at that than at the takeoff. And the takeoff was great...

No one dares to talk and show attitude infront of Pablo, but except Tom cruise
I have never watched this. Looks great. I'm going to rent it. Thanks for the clip.
I just love the subtitles.
(Speaks in Spanish)
That big man looked sad he didn’t get to fly with Tom
Tom cruise is awesoem for helping these men with their startup.
mi 7, this movie. THIS man is a perfect movie star
When they said he can't do it...he was not even scared for his life...he felt disrespected as a pilot
0:14 they'd be known as the medein cartel
The crazy thing is, knowing Tom and knowing that he came fly, I beleive this scene is a hundred percent real.
So, this is what Maverick was doing in his off time . . .
He's Maverick, he can fly anything, anywhere, anytime😎
Sad backstory. The day after filming was finished, the plane Cruise’s character flew, was destroyed when a careless local pilot slammed into the side of a hill trying to scud run due to poor weather.

This is the alternate reality where Maverick WASN'T allowed to get away with all the laws he broke; he had to make a living somehow.
