Buck Rogers in the 25th Century

Top Gun meets Flash Gordon without the camp. A 20th-century pilot wakes up 500 years after a nuclear war, now Earth’s best hope in a space war fought with retro lasers and stiff uniforms. Gil Gerard sells the cheese with a straight face, riding a wave of late-disco sci-fi kitsch.
