Top Secret! is a 1984 comedy film directed by David Zucker, Jim Abrahams, and Jerry Zucker, whose previous picture had been the highly successful Airplane! It stars Val Kilmer (in his first feature film), Lucy Gutteridge, Omar Sharif, Peter Cushing, Michael Gough and Jeremy Kemp.
The film is a parody of both the musicals starring Elvis Presley and spy films of the Cold War era. The original music score was composed by Maurice Jarre.

Brazil, 1985.
A dark vision of a future society in which the average Joe's fear isn't of being singled out by the government, but being lost in an overwhelming bureaucracy. Sam Lowry (Jonathan Pryce), an unambitious bureaucrat with fantasies of fighting the oppressive system in which he lives, finds himself at the center of a Kafka-esque nightmare when he tries to repair a clerical error. Pulled into the political underground by both outside forces and his own desire for insurrection, Lowry meets the woman of his dreams and a non-union plumber (Robert De Niro) who swings from housing complex to housing complex heroically unclogging the spaghetti of pipes and ducts that are symbolically choking everyone in red tape. Hideous caricatures of insulated elites and blue-collar paper-shufflers populate director Terry Gilliam's delightfully twisted vision of a cheerless future. Universal was unhappy with the original cut of the film (at 142 minutes, they felt it was too long and that the ending was too bleak) and, after a lengthy contest of wills, a compromise was reached with somewhat watered-down results.

I was born in the mid 80s, so there's not all that many things I remember, but I'll try. It's funny, I was just showing my daughter clips of this movie last night.
Totally 80's!
