Back to the cinema for the first time in 2 years to Top Gun Maverick. 🍿Not only is it an amazing film full of action, great music and ‘80s memorabilia with glimpses of the original 1986 film. It finishes with the epitome of cool a classic 911s.
Great bit of escapism after all the craziness we have all had to put up with over the past 2 years.

Saw it last night. Great escapism, and very good fun. Wife now wants to rewatch the original tonight.
It's basically the same as The Force Awakens and Star Wars. They've remade something very close to the original story, which very effectively pushes the audiences' buttons via cues and homages to the original.
Currently getting 8.7 on IMDB, which puts it in rare company (1986 original gets 6.9).
And yes, Jennifer Connolley definitely did it for me.

Mrs PB and I went yesterday.
I have to concede I excitedly whispered 'silver Porsche' to her whenever it came on screen.
(I have an Arctic Silver 986S!)
I know that as a man who turns 44 this time next week, I should have seen the original. But I'm afraid I haven't. Enjoyed it nonetheless though, great film.
