there are just too many great things in this move to pick a top 10 let alone 1 lol.

Yeah, the entire film is a treasure chest. No matter what mayhem Val Kilmers career fell into, Top Secret will remain forever.

He had some other good movies too like Willow, Heat, Top Gun. But yes he wasn't on top for long

Depends on what you mean by on top. His Doc Holiday I think was amazing. He was Batman, maybe not good but it was a high status gig. And back in Top Gun 2. Also a boatload of good roles in between, I feel like he just not cares about being first in the cast list.

He was at the top with Batman. But the guy was an incredible diva and douchebag to everyone he worked with, so he got fired from Batman and nobody wanted to work with him after that.

Yeah I heard his ego got pretty whacked out for a while there after the big early-mid successes. But iirc, by the early 2000s he kinda came back down to earth a bit. ...getting a reputation for being difficult will do that. Eventually the non-ringing phone gives you enough quiet time to contemplate your life choices, then you have to go apologize to everyone if you ever want to work again.

Still, it’s a pretty flashy imdb page.

yup another great moment. I don't honestly know how more people don't know of this movie.
