Went last night to see it. I was bouncing in my seat. Totally fanboyed the flight scenes. Okay, you have to suspend your disbelief at times.........but then again the original was cheesy as fuck and yet still I love it!!!!!! (I heard many years ago that Cruise refused the role until they improved the script. Read that again and laugh at how bad the original script must have been and remember a line like, "Too close for missiles. Switching to guns!" made the cut......
)
As for F-14s? No spoiler but you won't be disappointed (the previous comment notwithstanding
)
Did I like this film? It took my breath away. Sheer entertainment from start to finish. Brilliant film. Remember what it is - entertainment - it's not a fucking flying skills documentary - then love every second. I'm going back. I rarely do that with films........unless I'm in one
