nobody look at me okay. i had a bad day.

daddy issues.

Only slightly better than the original. I thought the flying scenes were cool (especially considering they were mostly authentic) but that’s pretty much it. Same story, same people, same problem.

Definitely A LOT better than the first film even though this just feels like a more well-shot and structured movie than the first. It still falls into a lot of the issues that I had with the first film in which the first half is inferior to the second half and there’s just no need for a romance subplot. there are also some glaring pacing issues (imo) but cinematography and editing was at the top of its game.
Overall, it was a fun time but nothing to write home about tbh.
FINAL SCORE: 8/10 or 4 stars

“It’s what my dad would’ve done.”Definitely not the…

[Cain looks through pages of Maverick's records]
Rear Admiral: 'Distinguished.' 'Distinguished.' 'Distinguished.' Yet you can't get a promotion, you won't retire, and despite your best efforts, you refuse to die. You should be at least a two-star admiral by now, if not a senator. Yet here you are: Captain. Why is that?
Maverick: It's one of life's mysteries, sir.
