Top Gun - Maverick
Posted: Sun May 29, 2022 5:51 am
I saw the original Top Gun three times with three different girls back in '86. At the time I was broken up with my girlfriend of three years so I didn't get to see it with her. Run ahead 36 years and Friday night I finally got to see Top Gun Maverick with the old girlfriend. Only now I've been married to her for nearly 33 years. All of the military part was absolutely ridiculous and the love story was kind of shallow but you know what? We loved it and the audience broke into applause and cheering more than once. The flying scenes were real and absolutely awesome on the big screen. The connections to the original were incessant but well done. There's a couple of surprises that aren't really but again, handled well. The whole movie is a huge bucket of popcorn that will make you feel good if you suspend belief in...well, all of it. But it doesn't matter. You should see it.
