Quote: “ tom cruise sitting in a jet cockpit simulator on some los angeles back lot, making fake intense battle faces, surrounded by fake computer-generated
aerial warfare, sickens and disgusts me.
Except they made this movie in actual jet fighters in flight and underwent training to do so. It is realistic and greatly differs from the original in that regard.
It's easy to fool some people.
And Cruise pilots his own P-51 Mustang in the film
Exactly.
