This was amazing. We were in for a treat as soon as they kept the original title card.

They genuinely cared for the IP and you do not see that often with sequels. Kudos to everyone involved.

I like how they made Phoenix neither a tomboy or some secret hot ace girl. But just was a regular pilot among the team

I know this is gonna inspire a batch of sequels to 80s action movies, but I hope, they make the movies with practical effects instead of turning them into CGI beasts.

The last good one was Rambo 2008, excluding creed. That shyt was fire.
I found myself legitimately rooting for Maverick like 3-4 different times. Like "come on maverick, you can do it

This is the only way to see it. A TV won't do it justice.
