Okay I need to start off by saying that I never got all the hype about the first movie, so bear with me here.
I do know that in the first movie, Cruise's wingman (Goose) is killed. No mention is made of family, yet in the sequel, there's suddenly a kid? Who by pure coincidence is selected to the Top Gun school to be trained by the man who's arrogance and incompetence killed his dad?
But I shouldn't complain - you don't go to this shit for the plot - you go to remember the nostalgia of your youth where our military could do no wrong and we were always the Good Guys.
And I should note that it's gotten fantastic reviews from those who enjoyed the first one, so there is that. I just can't help thinking of it as a 2hr recruitment ad.

I thought people went to see that film for the homoeroticism.

I’ve heard reviews by the magats and they rave about it. 🤣🤣🤣 Neither this movie or the dinosaur one makes me want to risk a movie theater. I’ve had a couple sneezing and coughfits today, and I’m paranoid it’s Covid. My throat was a bit scratchy earlier. It’s a week today that I was out in public. 😱😱 I’m waiting to see if a fever arises.
Shit, I’ve bought dvds of movies I wanted to see last year and still haven’t watched them.

We'll wait for it to show up at redbox for 2 bucks. By then I should have the tv installed permanently complete with my sound system. It's not a surround system but it works jussssssst fine, trust me.
