Watched this tonight with low expectations, but I have to say I was very pleasantly surprised. The flying sequences were exciting and visceral while the simple plot worked well. Much better that the silly original.

Anyone seen it and have a comment?

They are good movies. You're missing out.
In the case of Top Gun, what exactly have I missed out on?

If you can't say what "good" means to you, then typing things like "Everything good" is just posting for the sake of posting.

@FMF

I think you've seen the original Top Gun and when Goose died you broke inside...

That's why you are so defensive about it all.

when you want to just watch some good high speed jet fighter sequences

There is never going to be a "when" of this kind.
You think you know a person and then…

It was the modern equivalent of seeing Bambi (or was it Bambis mother) get shot.
