I approached this short with some interest, but I found it very deceiving. The plot (this word in this case is an insult) is null, the photography, praised by some readers, is obvious, the acting does not exist. It's difficult to understand how people -referring to the troupe- can waste time and resources (even if, in this case, reduced), in order to produce such a banality. If you wish to watch the movie, the trailer is enough. It's not a spoiler, it is the essence of the whole short. The only positive point is that's not a great waste of time: its short duration (just above 10 minutes) does not steal much of one's time.

Like looking the 'original' in a distorted mirror. A very predictable script does not sustain the movie. Dogfights and action scenes sometimes are confused, they were much better in the 1986 movie. But if one look for action, action is served. Too many 'machitos': the scent of testosterone is even stronger than 36 years ago, and the unique female presence in a masculine role is not enough to smooth its smell. Good cast, though, and very credible resemblance between 'Goose' and his son 'Rooster'. Credible performances by everyone. A very sad presence of Val Kilmer who's suffering from a throat cancer in real life, but I think that producers owed him a role in this movie. Young spectators who didn't watch Top Gun release in real time (iI mean, in 1986) will appreciate this release.
