    The only reason to watch it is so you can appreciate Hot Shots.

    Looks much better than expected, but...

    ... where is the Tony Scott saturation? :/

    It's very throw-backy though.
    Singing in a bar scene?  Check!
    Beach volleyball scene?  Check!
    Race the jet, taking off with the motorcycle?  Check!
    Funeral scene?  Check!

    You KNOW they are going to do a "buzzing the tower" scene.
    Cool trailer but is this a sequel or a remake?

    There is a place where you can do low altitude flying where they shot a lot of those scenes.  Someone hiking got a shot of a pilot wearing the Maverick helmet ...

    This may be the worst widely-beloved film ever made.
    An 80's cliché machine with shit acting and pseudo-patriotism that perfectly captures the contemporary decade with the worst style in all ways.

    You must be fun at parties.  Lol.  Original Top Gun is amazing!!!!  Top gun 2 looks pretty good so far.  I can’t wait to see this one in the theatre.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......
