not too much top the classic top gun or independence day when it come to fighter jet excitement . yes and the movie top to bottom be base on a truly fictional example of how anyone can pull off a rescue but it be cool because it break all traditional rule . the kid do what he want to do in a jet the way he want to do it . i can not really put my finger on just what i love about this movie but others i know that saw the movie feel the same way about it i do . i think it just basically a lot of fun but maybe a little too unrealistic for some to buy into . again and regardless and i love it and people who i know saw it and love it so it definitely worth see to make your own decision about it . put it this way and i think that top gun be one of the best fighter pilot movie ever and i like this movie just as much if not more than top gun . don not miss out and do see it and a truly inspirational movie .
