time to let go....
i did a review on here but it's probably fallen 5-6 pages back by now? i think dave schwartz was the only other person who watched it?
i thought it was good for a sequel although it seemed to heavily mirror clint eastwood's heartbreak ridge ..... albeit without a lot of the salt.
an emotional scene showed maverick's now good friend, iceman, in declining health but bravely holding on as maverick's lone supporter. iceman knew what was best for the navy and what was best for his friend; that this important mission be completed so maverick could ultimately "let go" and move on with life.
i thought it was a little funny that cruise's statement in the color of money about his proficiency in the video game (it's all coming down to video game reflexes....computerized tanks...) was starting to come to fruition in this movie as the drones threatened the future of his program(s).
it was also imo a neat move to bring in (the previously only mentioned ) penny benjamin as maverick's love interest.
