He has... He looked much older than he was, I remember thinking he hadn't aged well. Sad to hear though, he made some great films.

I've never seen top gun, but enjoyed him in Top Secret and The Doors, I thought he was great as Jim Morrison.

Gone to soon.

…I think one of his most praised movies/roles was Tombstone/Doc Holliday and I do recall that he was excellent in that…it’s a long while since I watched it though, so I might give it a re-watch soon…

It's funny, despite him being such a huge name and so present in my mind as a movie star, the only two movies I really took notice of him in were Batman Forever and Heat. He was a decent Batman, too. Certainly better than George Clooney and Ben Affleck imo.

I should get around to watching that Doors movie he and Oliver Stone made.

I was just about to say before i got to the last line of your post, what about The Doors!? Imo that was his best performance

It's even more egregious because I quite like the Doors and Stone's JFK is one of my favourite movies. :facepalm: For shame!

Well, your mission is quite clear, in memory of Val you need to get that watched pronto!

Oh, I will now. And also The Island of Doctor Moreau and the documentary they made about how much of a nightmare him and Brando were during the making of that. :laugh:

…another excellent Val Kilmer movie is Kiss Kiss Bang Bang with Robert Downey Junior and Michelle Monaghan …it’s generally an overall superb watch…

…he’s one of those actors who comparatively didn’t star in so many movies as many others but he made a huge screen impact in the ones he was in so its always felt to me that he’s been on the screen more than he has…

He was absolutely superb as Jim Morrison in the film The Doors.
Really outstanding.
