Saw Top Gun, my wife and I enjoyed it. Not too much to be picky about, I think Top Gun is now in Fallon, not Miramar, way too much interplane chatter for a super top secret mission, I don't think there is a fighter plane in the world that, going 500-600 kts could instantaneously perform a 90 degree pitch up and reverse course without killing the pilot and destroying the plane, and, finally, the F-14 is substantially faster than the Russian or Chinese stealth fighters, .34 mach, 200 mph. They would have a hard time catching up with it. Still a good movie for the family.Top Gun: Maverick
It was everything you had hoped for. Nostalgic, over the top, sometimes corny, and funny in all the right spots. I definitely enjoyed it.

Interesting enough, the most farfetched scene was the stealing of the F-14. However, Bob Hoover did the same thing during WW2, so I marked it possible.Exactly. There is nothing realistic about it, but it is just a fun movie.
