Big screen,wide recliner chairs,superb sound system THE PICTURE SHOW in Grand Jct. is THE only way to see this totally terrific sequel TOP GUN MAVERICK.....YES it is superior to the original...rate scale? 1 to 10.....it is a 14, (no kidding). threads the needle into a cohesive, solid story and weaves
the past with the present in a PERFECT performance. SATISFYING start to summer.
I was really impressed with the filmmakers and Tom Cruise. They really went the extra step and actually filmed the actors in real F-18 cockpits actually flying. This isn't previous movies where they make a mockup of the cockpit and shake it around with a green screen behind it. You actually see the characters getting bashed against the sides of the jets as they fly their tricky courses.
And I think this is a great film to get audiences back to the big screen. Our showing was sold out on the 2nd weekend.
