I was so impressed of how they honored the original Top Gun. We get closure about Goose and his family after his death. Goose's son Bradley blames Maverick for his fathers death and Bradley finally understands, but also learns that Maverick
still blames himself for Goose's death. We get to meet Penny and elaborate on her story with Maverick. It was sad to see Ice die, but happy to see that Ice and Maverick were best friends and that Maverick still had something to give to the younger pilots. The movie shows us that our age makes us wiser and it better to be humble than arrogant. Maverick still has to prove himself over and over. Something that most of us can relate too. The move was well thought out and turned out Amazing!!!
