I saw it. It felt like I was back in 1986. It puts can-do American exceptionalism on full, unapologetic display. And the film grossed over $500MM in its first weekend...whoda thunk?
They very intelligently didn't disclose which is the bad guy country...which means this film will eventually rake in cash from the real bad guys. Now THAT is cool.
Two good popcorn flicks, Dr Strange was darker than I thought it would be.
Back in the days that I could actually pull Gs, I did that stuff. However, today, let’s remember that it’s not long until our fighters will have rainbows painted on the tails, and pilot nicknames would be required to use the correct pronouns.
Yes, it IS that bad. (The pilots, naturally, think as much of Biden and his idiots as they do of a dog turd, but they dare not say anything. Do not doubt that the majority of our military loathes the Turd-in-Chief and his minions.)
I might even go see the darn thing myself.
I didn’t know Cruise was an accomplished pilot. Good for him. He was right when he told Oprah that she was glib.
Too bad- i want all these hollywood films to go bust
Here is a youtube video of Jocko Willink interviewing Dave Berke about the movie. Dave was a senior Top Gun instructor and says he’s the only pilot he knows of to have qualified in the F16, F18, F22, and F35. Lot’s of cool first hand knowledge about the Top Gun program.
I heard someone say it was basically a of the one from the 80’s?
My wife and I saw it on a large screen last night.
It was a really good movie to catch, for a variety of reasons.
My wife wanted to know why we were bombing Norway.
1984 to 1988 were the best years ever.
I was going to see ‘Jurassic World Dominion’. But after seeing 3 trailers for it, I am going to pass. The dinosaur action looked good, but I don’t like the story line. Which is that the dinosaurs have escaped, so that now they pop up randomly all over the world, including frozen territories.
“didn’t disclose which is the bad guy country..”
I thought I heard Iraq or Iran one time, but maybe not.
It was a very exciting and decent show.
