The 75% disagree comes from the fact that this film couldn't have been more different to its 80's predecessor. Once you get past the opening music and carrier scenes, the tone of the film is completely different. It is not 80s AT ALL!!!!! Its a love letter to ageing, and partly a love letter to planes. Unless you're a guy in their 50s who was young and impressional and has watched the original countless times, you won't appreciate how non-80s this sequel actually was.

It showed that Goose was still there in spirit. He would've saved Mav's life no matter what and vice-versa if things went bad. That's love, man. Imagine how great Dead Reckoning is going to be?

And with the way Top Gun Maverick turned out, the U.S. Navy has a new movie to milk and get people to enlist.

Yeh but the female fighter pilot didn’t do it for me, typical Hollywood woke B.S. there’s a reason there’s no female fighter pilots, because their bodies can’t withstand the G force pulls, which would cause them too black out. It’s hard enough for super fit male pilots, so no way would a woman be able too pulls 5/6G’s in a fighter jet..

Just a few things Joe, Jennifer Connelly's character is mention only once in the original Top Gun as being the Admiral's Daughter he was dating and got caught and punished by it. The second is that the reason Rooster hates Maverick at the beginning of the film is because Maverick pulled his papers from entering the Navy and that set him back 4 years in his career because her mother didn't want him to fly for the Navy and last one the maneuver OJ was referring to is not a maneuver is a term called Buzzing the tower, where a jet passes by the control tower too close and because of it makes the tower have a mini earthquake that resembles a buzzing because of the windows.

Jennifer Connelly is not a new character.

So while she wasn't physically in the film, the story and character were from the original. This movie was also epic. Best movie I've seen since infinity war probably.

Operation Opera it was called, conducted with F-15 & F-16 fighters and they didn´t lose any jets!

I think the issue is that in all these subversion attempts, they fail to realize why we like certain characters. For many, these 80s and 90s heroes were part of our formative years. They gave us lessons that we took into adulthood. So being told that our teachers were wrong could of course feel like either someone doesn't get it or is trying to tear our heroes down. In this case, Maverick coming back as a Top Gun instructor is almost a meta-affirmation that not only did we learn the right lessons but that there's more to learn than before, and not even he is done learning.

When one looks at what the stats of fighter pilots are IRL in the US, it’s _VERY_ homogeneous. This cast is therefore a joke.

Its good, the decision to use actual plane and actual place really add to viewing experience, the pilot expression under real G force, the dogfight awesome, the plane silloute and afterburner and it got heart theres some scene where i teared up, definitely will watch again

Having worked on a carrier flight deck as a 19 year old kid during the Vietnam war, I really liked the opening montage of the flight deck action. Getting a fighter in the air is a coordinated dance by all involved. Those shots took me back to those days. The aerial shots were spectacular.

Loved this film, and if you see the first, the beats really hit harder in this one, definitely the best sequel in a decade at least. It also feels like how an awesome Ace Combat movie would be especially with the signature canyon run bit.

Seeing the f14 as a kid in the first film blew my mind, and growing up reading and learning everything about the aircraft seeing it on the big screen again all these years later almost made me cry, it was beyond epic, it's the star of the show in my opinion

Just saw this a second time. Just as much an emotional rollercoaster as the first, if somewhat less tense as you know what is going to happen. I should add that the auditorium was pretty much full for the late show and the movie has been out a week now so that speaks to how well this movie is doing. My fave part is how the let the hero (Maverick) remain the hero, and do not "neuter" him in his own movies like happens so many other times in recent years.

Badass movie, pretty worthy sequel imo with good callbacks to the original.

It's way better than the first one. The only good part with Top Gun was the last dogfight since they weren't practicing and had real enemies and just as Alex said, the pace was too fast. With Maverick it will have you on the edge of your seat most of the time since they already established what their mission was, what the risks needed to accomplish it and how their exercises were necessary to complete it.

Incredible film. As they said, it's T2, Aliens level.

The film played with that tension in a phenomenal way and then that ending just left me so hopeful in a manner no film has done in a long time. Truly a masterpiece in story telling, proves expectations don't always need to be subverted and that classic stories still work, maybe more so than ever before.

India's airforce has alot of Russian Sukhoi fighters and were supposed to help fund development of the SU-57 in exchange for getting their own variant but they backed out. So Russia developed in house and as far as we know, no plans to export, that's what the new SU-75 is for but that thing probably won't be as good as the F-35, especially since their cost estimate is less than current 4th gen fighters while the F-35 is much, much more expensive. Meaning their price is greatly downplayed or it's capabilities won't be as good as claimed.

They certainly used real planes but alot of the super close aerial maneuvering shots, like Maverick going vertical between two F-18's flying wingtip to wingtip (which they don't do IRL tactical training or in actual combat, that's Blue Angels stuff), Maverick's maneuver violated sooo many flight regs.

Movie was awesome, props to Tom Cruise for how well he maintains his shape and condition. I also like how the villain of the story is ambiguous, I really couldn't tell what country the villains are from which is great as it won't offend anybody and this lets the audience fill in the gaps to assume who the villains are. To me the villains are the terrorist organization Cobra from G.I. Joe haha.

I just watched this movie earlier today and I thought it was fantastic. I went in expecting a fun movie, I heard so many talk about it since release, hearing nothing but good things, and even those initial expectations were surpassed by the end of the first exercise. Such a fantastic movie; and I loved all the nods made towards the original.

A secret uranium enrichment project is clearly Iran in this Movie.

It basically sounds like everyone involved in this project should have been the ones doing HALO.

Totally disagree with Alex. The love interest in the first Top Gun was amazing.

the audience i watched it with was older. the scene with val kimer hit hard with the crowd. The older men felt the scene, I think its because when you say goodbye enough. That was a goodbye that we all are going to deal with.

The enemy nation is supposed to Iran (only country flying the F-14 still), with assistance from Russia (the Su-57s).

I loved how they did not try to force anything in the script. It was just well written all around

Top Gun: Maverick is everything I wanted the sequel trilogy, especially Luke and the other legacy characters, to be.

Love yall vids! Just fyi, Jennifer Connolly is Penny Benjamin who was mentioned in the first Top Gun but not shown when Maverick and Goose are getting barked at and they say Maverick messed around with the Admiral's daughter. Later on, in the piano scene in original Top Gun, Goose's Wife mentions how Maverick went ballistic with Penny Banjamin (which is the Admiral's daughter and in Top Gun Maverick is played by Jennifer).

Was such a great movie. On the edge of my seat the whole time.

This movie is phenomenal. I got to watch it on the 25th in the second best way in a room full of mechanics and engineers from the China lake base (near a damn city is how big it is) the only other way I could have imagined it being better was down the hall an hour before my showing was a full military showing and that would have been an experience to die for

This movie WAS FUCKING AWESOME. Knowing that the actors actually flew the jets is fantastic. I'd give it a 9/10 if not 10/10

To be perfectly honest, The first Top Gun in 1986 put me over the edge about Fighter Jets and being a Flyboy, it made me so enthused about the Military, I joined the Air Force out of High School in 1990. This one I've been waiting with baited breathe on pins and needles literally harassing Tom Cruise every year for the last 10 yrs to come out with this. I avoid all reviews, all write ups all spoilers all feedback and all youtube videos on purpose on these types of films that hold a special place in my heart on purpose. It was good, not great, it lacked a lot of disconnect between training and the final mission. But then again so did the Original but not as much. I felt like this was a way for Pete Mitchell (Spoiler alert) to feel redeemed for what happened to Goose because he blamed himself so much and he could relive the bond they had through his disgruntled son, Rooster! Also the love story was horrible, No build up to them hopping in bed together, it just all of a sudden is upon you. Overall I give it like 3.5 stars or a solid 7 on a scale of 10. I think because the Millennials and Gen Z aren't used to the type of quality films we are bombarded with in the 80's and even the 90's this is their first 'taste' of what it's like with an action film /romance/comedy like this. So they are over hyped on it because it is unlike anything out now... So um yeah its was good not great..the fighter pilot scenes were a literal recreation of Fire Fox and Star Wars where they have to hit the target.. not too creative there! lol

Only thing that always made me cringe about top gun and even this on is the "targeting reticule" on the missiles. I mean they're firing IR missiles which in an F18 could shot off bore using helmet sights AND they don't cause a missile lock tone on the other end cause they're IR missiles not radar. Also, the gun radar lock is partially true, but guns do not have a gimbal, they're fixed mounted. When a plane is locked up on HMCS or radar (vertical or bore mode), a secondary gun reticle is shown where the nose of the aircraft needs to be pointed in order for the rounds to intercept the target according to it's aspect, trajectory and speed. It would make for an even more tense visual aid than the generic "lock on" (and it's not even how US radars look, work or lock on). Almost as annoying as when in top gun , Maverick always switches the tomcats weapon selector to PH/SP mode to fire a sidewinder.... Even though he already has tone. But that's getting way too specific on movie details that's meant to be entertaining not an accurate representation. Awesome movie either way.
