Stellar! The third act will go down in history as one of the all-time great action sequences in film history. IMAX was made for films like this!

bradnoyes · 06-02-2022, 12:51 AM

This was one of the best cinematic experiences I’ve had. Period. Great presentation in Dolby Cinema. Can’t wait for the new Mission Impossible.

C.M., good man. To give back a little to the place he was born, Claudio traveled down to Chile in October? of 2019 to teach a couple courses in cinematography at ACC.

I gave it 5 stars. None of that was CGI, and that was one of the coolest movies I've seen in a long time. Tom Cruise does it again!

Penton you have a solid memory that can go back years and years in time, your childhood and beyond ... You shared that one too with us previously.

Not the biggest fan of the first one, but I really enjoyed this. The plot is fairly predictable but aerial action and stunt work is absolutely breathtaking on the big screen and the character drama is strong enough to keep you invested.

I also thought Val Kilmer's cameo was really touching.

Until then, a past retrospective by Claudio on filming Top Gun: Maverick and in context for turning the carrier around, a pic of the Commander of the USS Theodore Roosevelt (he is also a naval aviator having logged over 2,800 flight hours and over 500 carrier arrested landings, his combat highlights include scoring the first, and only strike, by an S-3B Viking with an air to ground missile) , see - https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...o#post19104585

The discussion about how to get the 6 cameras into the cockpit of each F/A18-F for TG: M begins about 2 or 3 minutes prior to the timestamp posted (after they finish talking about The Dig).

Bolo Seagull · 06-02-2022, 11:14 PM

I really enjoyed this. This was a great time at the movies. There was wonderful chemistry among the cast. It stayed very true to the original without any of it feeling obligatory. The shirtless beach sports scene actually had more of a purpose in this movie than it did in the original, so it wasn't just a callback for callback's sake.

And Tom Cruise is just a legend. One of the last genuine movie stars. I just feel comforted knowing he's out there giving it his all.

John1701D · 06-02-2022, 11:20 PM

What a great time at the movies. Couldn't have been happier.

One, not my bag music wise.
Two, not my bag color stylised wise; too saturated and too dark (crushed).
The reflections are ok.

* Extra:

Guess who directed it ^ and who was behind the camera ^

LordoftheRings · 06-03-2022, 12:26 AM

From the same director and cinematographer; coming up on Netflix June 17 ... 'Spiderhead'

Can't imagine rating this movie any less than a 4, but really it's a 5/5. Just an absolutely gorgeous epic, heartfelt and exciting. One of the best action movies ever. This is everything a blockbuster should be and more.

Tom Cruise.
