Going to see this in a Dolby Cinema theater. Those engines are going to sound nice

Still a need for speed
PRAISE: Captain. Pete 'Maverick' Mitchell is still a rebel and pushing himself and jets to the limit in Top Gun : Maverick. The story this time around has Maverick Training a detachment of graduates for a special assignment, Maverick must confront the ghosts of his past and his deepest fears, culminating in a mission that demands the ultimate sacrifice from those who choose to fly it.
This movie gets a lot of things right and if you're going to make a sequel almost 36 years later this is how you do it.
The cast is all around likeable even if a bit cookie cutter with the cocky,young, and arrogant airmen and women seemingly ready to take on the world that includes: Miles Teller, Glen Powell, Jay Ellis, Lewis Pullman, Danny Ramirez, and Monica Barbaro .
Also some great supportive work from Jon Hamm and Val Kilmer
Cruise is really at his best here still portraying Maverick with the same swagger but enough pain around the edges to make him human.
There's a cute romance between him and Jennifer Connelly.
The action sequences are outstanding with dizzying visuals that are a wonder for the eyes and breathtaking. The film also hit me with a good dose of raw emotion, hitting all the right cords and then some. A lot of nice nods to the first film.
A great job is done making the story come full circle.
I wonder if writers Peter Craig and Justin Marks are Star Wars fans LOL
PROBLEMS : There's some clichéd and predictable moments and at times I wished the film could have gone down a few more gripping and realistic paths.
Scale of 1 to 10 an 8½

I’ve never seen the original Top Gun but I’m kinda intrigued with this one. I need to watch the OG before I check this out I’m sure though.

Easily a 4/5 possibly 4.5/5. Movie of the year so far to me.
Didn’t think this movie would be good
I’m really glad because Tom had some let downs the last 5 years

I just finished the 1st one and will check out the new one this week. Shit, maybe tomorrow.
the 1st one was okay. Hell cheesy, but not wack.

Same here. Just watched the OG yesterday.
It was cool. Definitely didn't get all the hype it's gotten over the last 30+ years.

i didn’t realize it was so many actors that went on to have good careers in the original movie though.
yeah, I agree it was the greatest movie. Maybe back then it was though.
In the beginning yea. Not enough for me tho
I watched it last night before seeing the new one lol
