I just saw it tonight - it was outstanding IMO
I had been hearing about this sequel for years and think they pulled off a great movie. No small feat considering how iconic the original is.
Music and scores are superb. Harold and Hans, you can't go wrong!
Last, I echo your sentiments about Tom Cruise. I don't go out of my way to see his movies, but I recognize he is a very accomplished actor. He was solid in this performance.
Very entertaining, and l would see it again.
Top Gun: Maverick Soundtrack
My main source of love and inspiration from modern music since childhood were always feature film soundtracks. With this said, I haven't purchased a soundtrack in more than a decade since there hasn't been any personally compelling ones released in too lo...
I'll listen to the soundtracks
you posted, you enjoy the movie and let me know how it was. I'll get around to seeing it as soon as I can. I understand there are a lot of nods to the original in this one. Tom
Indeed!
I'll even be seeing it in an IMAX format so the experience ought to be as engrossing as it gets ........ Will tune-in back here tomorrow evening, Filip
Saw it yesterday evening,
loved it, not to repeat myself too much in the same thread, just have a look at my response to 'nasseriq' below ........
Very much looking forward
to seeing this! My U.S. based friend did, was enthusiastic and, unlike me, has never been one to succumb to Mr. Cruise's charms. (He has me at hello, ha ha ha.) Cheers Marc
Hahaa - very funny :)
I will see it in the next 24 hours so I'll post my fairly objective review, sans Tom Cruise worship LoL . Cheers, Filip
Saw it last night, think it is
a triumph, and I loved every second of it (it was long, wasn't it?)! Cheers Marc

Thanks Michael!!
I truly appreciate the positive sentiments which give me an air of enthusiasm before tomorrow's viewing . Again, I'm seeing it in IMAX format so the effect of the cinematography ought to be at its peak potential . Cheers, Filip
Agreed :D
I saw it yesterday and genuinely loved it. Not that the story is particularly original, it's a decent enough attempt at making something qualitative out of the premise of the first film, but the whole experience was genuinely one of a kind - especially in...
Thanks. Definitely will check it out.
Original scores (soundtrack with music only, not songs) are also my favourite way to get relaxed. Regarding Hans Zimmer creations, my favorites are Pearl Harbor (Ben affleck starring) , Last Samurai (Tom Cruise starring), and Batman The Dark Knight Trilog...
Oh, I sure have!
Might re-listen the Last Samurai tracks now that you mentioned it. Regarding TDK soundtrack, it's among the best ever made in my opinion, and I even have the limited edition hard-cover case/book OST which my friend, who happens to be among the two dozen m...
That is really nice of your friend.
Among the great composers, i think Hans Zimmer and James Horner ( Legends of the Falls, Apollo 13, Braveheart) are one the best for creating scores for epic movies. The others like Howard Shore (Lord of the Ring trilogy) and Gabriel Yared (city of angels,...
I would also have to add....
Harry Gregson-Williams. He might even be my favorite modern music composer, even against his former colleagues at Remote Control ........
The soundtrack was indeed pretty good, slightly updated from the original version which did the job. The film itself was nice yet with such an obvious scenario !
I don't know if you noticed the huge IWC involvement (wristwatches and pocket chronograph) ?
Exactly!
I agree with you 100%. IWC was easily the biggest sponsor in terms of product placement. Ray-Ban comes in a close second .... Thanks for looking, Filip
