I honestly have no idea what I had just watched nor how this film got nominated for anything, never mind won so much. It was way too long, too boring, and just induced me to looking at my watch over and over again, wondering when it would be finished. I can usually at least tolerate a bad film, but this was well-beyond tolerable. I never thought I could dislike a Michelle Yeoh film, but here we are.

My rating:
At first, I was very skeptical to watch top gun two. The first top gun was the first of its kind and its impact and incredible filming of fighter planes would be hard to top along with Tom Cruise now being a lot older. The movie actually had everything the first one did suspense, love story, battle between egos, heartache and incredible filmed flight scenes. It can hold its own by itself, but very much like the story line connecting it to the first top gun. I will watch it again.

How does this movie have such a high rating on Rotten Tomatoes? The main character is hideous. I don't think I've ever shouted at a movie character to "shut up" before. He just constantly monologues, and his poor love interest sits there listening. The weird aggressive sex scene is supposed to be funny, I guess. Sex scenes were uncomfortable to watch - basically it was gay porn. I switched it off when he was lecturing the guy's mother atop his soap box. Dull, shallow characters, bland dialogue, and an obvious plot. I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed.
